STARTING from Monday, Standard Chartered Bank cardholders will be in for weekly treats from a host of dining, travel and shopping outlets if they download the bank's iPhone application.

 

In what is believed to be a first-of-its-kind promotion by a bank here, customers who flash the 'I Love Free Monday' coupons from The Good Life app will get freebies from outlets such as Swensen's, Starbucks and Marble Slab Creamery.

 

The Good Life, which can be downloaded from Apple's App Store, has also introduced weekly mobile coupons that will notify users of exclusive deals and give regular updates on the best offers.

 

Stanchart Singapore's head of consumer banking, Mr Dennis Khoo, said this promotion was a way of thanking the bank's customers.

 

He added that users of the app have enjoyed savings of 'close to $14 million' to date.

 

'By offering exclusive, time-limited and free deals through mobile coupons, we are reinforcing our commitment towards our cardholders,' he said.
