If the company’s Grand Launch event with VIP guests, media members, influencers and charity partner attendees is proof of anything, it’s that Miami is a loving and giving city ready to pioneer micro-philanthropy while earning some extra cashback.
CommunityRewards™ powered by Points4Purpose is making it easy, seamless and free for local Miami shoppers to not only earn cashback rewards but also micro-donate to the charity of their choice through an innovative, AI-powered rewards program with over 5,000 online and brick-and-mortar retail brands active on the platform. CommunityRewards™ is on a mission to transform everyday spending into opportunities for both personal fulfillment and charitable giving this holiday season. The financial technology platform is also backed by encrypted card-linking technology, ensuring every shoppers purchase is secure and private. “CommunityRewards™ is delivering a first-of-its-kind program that infuses micro-charitable donations into regular, everyday shopping transactions, making shopping trips more rewarding,” said James Trocme, Chief Operating Officer at Points4Purpose Inc.
Some of Miami’s hottest fashionistas and models here in Miami are already in support of the CommunityRewards platform and recently attended the Grand Launch event for CommunityRewards.

Additionally, Latin fashion media host, Lesquel Navas and Dancer/ VMA Winner Sammy Hawk attended and walked the CommunityRewards Red Carpet during its Grand Launch event just a few weeks back.
The business and charity community of Miami is quickly joining the CommunityRewards platform and supporting Points4Purpose’s mission to micro-fundraise for important local charities through everyday shopping transactions. Points4Purpose’s Chief Operating Officer, James Trocme, along with the company’s founder & Chief Executive Officer, Ivan Schwartz, recently delivered moving speeches on the pool rooftop of Urbanic Fifth Hotel on Miami Beach overlooking a beautiful audience, sharing their initial inspiration and company mission with attendees. Additionally, the Women’s Chamber of Commerce of Miami-Dade County President, Dr. Karine Melissa, along with fellow WCC board members joined the CommunityRewards™ Grand Launch celebration—Points4Purpose, Inc. is a proud WCC corporate member and is excited to collaborate with the organization later this year.
The CommunityRewards™ platform is designed to make it easy for businesses, charities and shoppers alike to join without expensive IT integration typically required. Simplicity is the key to CommunityRewards™ for both shoppers and retail business owners. “We are utilizing cardlinking technology which leverages existing payment infrastructure and eliminates the need for physical coupons, loyalty cards or additional steps that slow down the checkout process and dissuade customers from joining. Members simply connect their preferred credit or debit card to their CommunityRewards™ Member ID, select their preferred charity and the percentage of cashback they wish to donate. And just like that, shoppers can simultaneously begin earning cashback on qualifying purchases while supporting their favorite cause,” Trocme said.
With over one million U.S. registered charities on the CommunityRewards platform, the program is launching in Miami with four featured charities that support women, health, animals and childhood education. “We’re partnering with Miami-Dade Animal Services, JuanFe Foundation, 305 Pink Pack and the National Alliance of Mental Health Miami-Dade (NAMI) as some of our local featured charities for our Miami launch. We’re excited to promote these charities and causes while shaking up the payments and rewards sectors by fundamentally infusing micro-giving into everyday financial transactions. This means whether shoppers donate 10 cents, 50 cents, or five dollars, every time they purchase their weekly groceries or pet food, their consistent micro-donations have the capacity to create a positive impact in the South Florida community,” Trocme continued.
Miami shoppers ready to start earning some extra cashback while effortlessly micro-donating to local Miami charities are encouraged to join CommunityRewards™ online at https://miami.communityrewards.store with the chance to win up to $100 in free cashback rewards.
