CYBERJAYA, Malaysia, March 16, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- LuxTag, an anti-counterfeit and brand protection solution provider based on blockchain-technology, is to initiate the development of a next-generation web application for DeFeet, a 25 year-old socks and accessories manufacturer. In the wake of the proliferation of highly sophisticated counterfeit products, ageing logistics service systems, and recent development in blockchain technology, DeFeet has engaged with LuxTag to begin the development of a next-generation web applications that will be packed with blockchain-enabled features. DeFeet's VP of Marketing, Paul Willerton mentioned that consumer goods equipped with blockchain technology will allow authentication, warranty, repair and loyalty reward, all accomplished in one scan.
Socks on the blockchain
The joint-partnership development to provide a new technology platform, signed by both DeFeet and LuxTag, will see an expected delivery date in 2Q/2018. It will help enhance the DeFeet-customer engagement and at the same time maintain a lasting relationship through the traceable and verifiable identity of the owners, products, and manufacturer. Specifically, we will see the development of a web application system that is supported by LuxTag blockchain technology. Initially, the LuxTag solutions will be applied to specific product lines, which will be expanded over time.
The deployment of such a blockchain-enabled web application is anticipated to enhance the engagement and experience of DeFeet's users, starting from the recently launched DeFeet-Barnstormer ambassador program (Instagram: @defeet_barnstormer). The program rewards adventurous cyclist members that sign up to their "missions" and complete it. What this means is that the DeFeet-Barnstormer members will benefit from loyalty rewards and increase in warranty, among other benefits (to be offered by DeFeet).
Notwithstanding, the LuxTag-developed system will also serve as a platform for future expansions in DeFeet's strategy in user identification, counterfeit detection, geo-location mapping of user base, and logistics of DeFeet products distribution, from the manufacturer to end consumers. The developed system will also ensure an easy adoption and seamless user experience, which is an integral part of the manufacturer-client engagement experience.
