SERVICE LOCATION PROTOCOL (SLP) (REVIEW)
SLP Network is a decentralized loyalty point exchange platform that utilizes blockchain technology to help consumers regain value from underutilized loyalty points earned through past purchases. SLP Network was founded by Leonid Shangin, a leader in the loyalty space with over a decade of experience working with omnichannel retailers as a Management Consultant at McKinsey & Company and the Deputy COO of LaModa, one of the largest eCommerce retailers in Russia. SLP's team initially gained experience as part of SailPlay, a leader in the omnichannel customer loyalty space with over 70 million consumers on the SailPlay platform on every major continent in the world, SailPlay is utilized by organizations such as Papa John's, Sephora, Estee Lauder, Volkswagen, and more.
ADVANTAGES
Utilizing smart contracts, the SLP Network technology will process transactions, tokens and customer data between entities. This innovative concept will bring a lot of benefits, including:
User-Friendly Transaction Speeds – The protocol operates on a federated consensus protocol, meaning that all transactions are validated and processed at a pre-set short timeframe. This ensures user-friendl speeds and streamlined user interfaces.
Low Brokerage Fees – SLP implements very tolerant and stable transaction and brokerage fees. The rates are capped at a low and stabilized level, which allows predictable and steady transactions. All microtransactions and processin fees are clearly defined, ruling out an transaction malversations or fee surges.
Decentralized and Independent Marketplace – By using a decentralized marketplace platform, SLT Network operates completely on supply and demand. The transaction values are dependant on real-life company point values and cannot be influenced by a third party.
Privacy and Anonymity – All transaction values are encrypted using FHE (Homomorphic encryption), and completely anonymous. The operation is processed through independent blockchain nodes, which ensures safety and privacy of all personal dat and information.
