This patent application discloses innovative methods for a digitized loyalty and rewards network within the regulated marijuana industry. A unique business model allows an excise tax exempt, social equity designated marijuana retailer to leverage its excise tax savings, creating digitized currency value at the transfer of wholesale cannabis. This value is partially allocated as digitized currency and transferred to licensed operators and consumers within the regulated marijuana supply chain. Tokens are earned via purchases or specific marketing initiatives, with the digital asset value directly linked to excise tax savings. This approach precludes inadvertent marketing to underage individuals. By encouraging repeat business and rendering excise tax savings tangible, the system promotes symbiotic relationships within the supply chain. The network ensures seamless, efficient, transparent, and secure value transfers, bolstering the integrity and traceability of rewards and fostering a modern, efficient marijuana ecosystem.

A method, system and computer program for providing a loyalty engine for automated cause marketing. The method includes a loyalty program system administrator linking merchants and charities to the loyalty system. Members register with the loyalty engine through loyalty system which is accessible via the Internet. Once the merchants and the charities are linked and the members are registered, by operation of the loyalty engine, the merchants can create a customized loyalty program defined by a plurality of merchant defined rules for administering their loyalty program. The merchant defined rules instruct the loyalty engine as to which charities should receive in-kind donations in connection with one or more transactions by a member that is associated to the loyalty program. Once a loyalty system defined time period or donation threshold has been achieved, the loyalty system releases the donation in-kind to the specific charity. A system is also provided that consists of a server computer including the loyalty engine and the charity utility. The charity utility provides the functions of the method and is linked to a server computer that is connected to the Internet. The computer program of the invention is a web application that enables the members, charities, and merchants to access the functions of the invention via a web browser.

Methods and systems may support dynamic, real-time or near-real-time processing, analysis, and processing of data to automatically identify and obtain coupons corresponding to consumer products such that, in response to receiving a request to purchase one or more products, qualifying coupons may be automatically identified, retrieved, and applied to the purchase.
