Thrifty Tribe

The Discount Gap

A smart savings membership — QR-code deals and cashback at partner merchants, and a day-one perk of Tentmakers membership.

About Thrifty Tribe

Digital payments reached 57.4% of retail transaction volume nationally in 2024 — QR-based, cashless spending is now the norm, not the exception. Thrifty Tribe rides exactly that behavior with QR-code deals and cashback.

With 43% of adults holding e-money accounts and 58% having some formal financial account, a fast-growing pool of people is already comfortable transacting the way Thrifty Tribe requires.

Member businesses become partner-merchants, so every new member grows the discount network and every new merchant makes membership more valuable — while paid Thrifty Tribe upgrades taken up by members form part of the ecosystem's revenue base.
