Quick summary of the app
Hops is a lifestyle reward app from dely Inc. that hands out virtual coins for routine actions. These coins accumulate in an on-screen meter and can be redeemed for a variety of rewards, including partner loyalty points, digital gift vouchers, and electronic money.
Ways to earn coins
- Submitting purchase receipts through the app
- Viewing local promotional leaflets (digital flyers) after registering your area
- Moving around — the app tracks distance covered and credits you accordingly
Why the app requests permissions
Hops asks for access to your location so it can measure how far you travel and award distance-based coins. It also requests permission for area registration so the app can record which local leaflets you’ve seen.
How the reward meter works and what you can redeem
A progress gauge fills as you perform qualifying activities; tap the gauge to claim the coins you’ve earned. Collected coins can be exchanged for a range of options, such as:
- nanaco point balances or similar convenience-store loyalty credit
- Ponta points and other regional reward programs
- Amazon gift cards and comparable digital vouchers
- Small coupons (for items like coffee or ice cream) usable at nearby convenience stores
- Rakuten points for use across participating services
- T-money and other prepaid transit/e-money services
- d point balances and other carrier-linked rewards
