Normally loath to suggest these sorts of thing, but recently discovered maccas has the best coffee in my suburb (C’mon melbourne get your shit together!) so every other day I’m grabbing a coffee. A mate recommended the app. I wouldnt suggest going there to get a deal, but IF your already buying stuff from maccas doing it through the app gets you points you can trade in, jut scored a free medium coffee with a non standard milk! It takes a few purchases to build up the required points, so again not a deal. But if you’re doing it anyway may as well get the free stuff from it.

    I was always more worried about giving my personal information to these loyalty card companies because they can sell that info off. I didn’t even imagine the prospect of hackers using that information to know when and where I could be at any time.

      Going deeper down the rabbit hole:

      • Any app that has access to location, knows where you are right now.
      • It’s doesn’t have to be a hacker. A dodgy employee of the organisation or a contractor can do the same thing. They don’t have to ‘hack’ anything. Just use their legitimate access for bad purposes.
