HeyMax Launches in Hong Kong and Announces Partnership with Cathay
The Singapore-based loyalty platform builds on its July acquisition of Hong Kong fintech krip, partnering with Cathay as part of its strategy to scale its regional rewards ecosystem and expand partner and user growth.
SINGAPORE and HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 5 November 2025 – HeyMax, the Singapore-based loyalty and travel rewards platform, today announced its launch into the Hong Kong market, marking its first international expansion and a new partnership with Cathay.
The move underscores HeyMax’s ambition to build Asia’s leading open loyalty ecosystem, enabling users to earn and redeem miles across multiple brands and partners. The company also plans to quadruple its team and expand regional partnerships to support this growth.
“As one of the world’s leading travel hubs, Hong Kong plays a pivotal role in connecting global travellers,” said Joe Lu, CEO and Co-founder of HeyMax. With both strong outbound and inbound demand, it’s a key market in building our global traveller network. HeyMax is well-positioned to help consumers turn everyday spending into meaningful travel experiences, while enabling businesses in Hong Kong to tap into the travel economy as a powerful way to engage their customers and members.”
Users in Hong Kong can earn Max Miles from over 300 leading merchants including Watsons, Trip.com, Klook, Starbucks, foodpanda and redeem them for flights, hotels, and rewards from over 30 programs, including Cathay, ALL Accor, and Qatar Airways. These partnerships reflect HeyMax’s role in connecting financial, lifestyle, and travel partners through a unified rewards platform that helps businesses drive deeper loyalty and unlock new value for consumers.
As part of the launch, starting today Cathay members in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia* can convert Max Miles into Asia Miles and redeem them for travel and lifestyle rewards, including flights on Cathay Pacific, partner airlines, and over 800 partners worldwide.
“As a premium travel lifestyle brand, partnering with HeyMax enables us to further strengthen our lifestyle ecosystem beyond our home hub of Hong Kong, giving our community of travellers across Southeast Asia more ways to turn everyday spending into meaningful travel experiences,” said Jonathan Ng, Cathay Regional Head of Customer Travel & Lifestyle for Southeast Asia and Oceania. “This partnership reflects our ongoing commitment to delivering greater flexibility, value, and choice to our members, wherever they are in their travel journey.”
The partnership marks a major step in expanding HeyMax’s regional rewards ecosystem and driving new collaborations.
“Hong Kong is one of Asia’s most influential markets for travel, finance, and lifestyle, a natural fit for HeyMax’s next phase of growth,” said David B. Wang, General Manager of HeyMax Hong Kong and Global Head of Loyalty Partnerships. “Through close collaboration with our partners, we look to help brands connect more deeply with travelers via Max Miles and strengthen our growing network of airline and hotel partners.”
Beyond merchants, HeyMax is also working with major partners operating in Hong Kong and beyond such as MoneyHero, Octopus, Preferrd and Visa, who are integrating Max Miles as part of their rewards and customer engagement strategies.
In addition, HeyMax’s FlyAnywhere feature lets users redeem Max Miles for any flight, on any airline, anywhere in the world. In addition to travel rewards, users can earn miles when purchasing digital vouchers from local favourites such as HKTVmall, 7-Eleven, JHC, and Starbucks, or when shopping for select lifestyle products.
The launch comes as Hong Kong continues to attract fintech and travel-tech companies seeking to serve a growing base of regional consumers.
“We welcome HeyMax’s decision to expand in Hong Kong,” said Jayne Chan, Head of Startups at InvestHK. “HeyMax’s expansion into Hong Kong underscores the city’s status as one of the region’s most vibrant startup hubs, with strong technology-powered customer engagement that supports continued growth in the travel and loyalty sectors.”
HeyMax aims to reach one million users and issue more than 2 billion Max Miles regionally by the end of 2026. The company continues to expand across financial services, insurance, F&B, and lifestyle sectors, following fivefold year-on-year revenue growth and an annualized revenue run rate of US$6 million reported in May.

Special Event for F2P Game Developers Launches Alongside the Announcement
SINGAPORE- Media OutReach Newswire – 17 August 2026 – With the global game market grown to an approximate value of US$200 billion annually, JUNEiNTER unveils a model designed to estimate the future revenue of individual games.
JUNEiNTER announced the release of the “LCP Model,” which estimates future revenue based on operating data from live service games and a public event of a free-trial marking its launch.
Whereas games generate recurring monthly cash flows and function as digital assets, the industry has lacked established standards to calculate the future revenue of individual titles — making their revenue streams difficult to be utilized as measurable financial assets.
The LCP Model was developed from the fundamental question: “How much revenue will our game generate?” The S66 Engine, which applies the LCP Model, analyzes actual service data accumulated from launch to calculate potential future revenue. Accordingly, it has been simulated about 90,000 times, confirming its consistency and reproducibility.
To mark the unveiling of the LCP Model, JUNEiNTER is holding a public event for developers to get revenue estimations for their own games. Eligible participants are games that use the F2P model monetized through in-app purchases (IAP) or combining in-app purchases with in-app advertising. Steam and console games are excluded.
Participating developers will also be offered additional special benefits for future usage. Eligibility requirements and details of the benefits are available on JUNEiNTER’s official website (https://gv.juneinter.com).
A JUNEiNTER spokesperson said, “Revenue estimates generated by the S66 Engine are not intended to be investment solicitation, fundraising, or a guarantee of returns. The results are estimates based on the data submitted by developers and the model’s criteria, and may differ from actual revenue.”

JUNEiNTER Co., Ltd
Founded in 2002, JUNEiNTER Co., Ltd. is a South Korean game company that has developed, serviced, and published online and mobile games, best known for publishing GetAmped (PC) and My Oasis (mobile). The company has expanded its lineup through in-house development, co-development, and investment over the years.
A Shift From Distribution to Brand Ownership
Since its founding, The Cocoa Trees has operated primarily as a retailer and distributor, offering more than 60 international confectionery brands across more than 20 stores in Singapore.
Kaki’s marks the company’s first move into developing and producing its own branded product line, in addition to distributing existing third-party brands such as Ritter Sport and Lindt.
A Range Built Around Everyday Singaporean Flavours
Kaki’s flavours draw on Singapore’s daily food rituals, from kopitiam mornings to late-night gatherings over local delicacies.
The range includes Nanyang Kopi, also referred to as Bittersweet Symphony, a coffee-flavoured chocolate capturing the taste of traditional freshly brewed coffee. Pandan Kaya is inspired by the slow-cooked, hand-stirred kaya used in a classic Singapore breakfast. Teh Tarik and Tropical Notes draws on the pulled-tea beverage alongside regional fruit profiles, including sunny mango, lychee, and a Singapore Sling-inspired blend.
Packaging Includes Local Storytelling
Kaki’s is designed as an everyday snack, a thoughtful gift for friends and family, and a corporate gift snack option for the workplace, as well as a culturally rooted souvenir for visitors to Singapore. Each bar comes wrapped in limited-edition artwork, with local fun facts and short, down-to-earth stories printed on the back. The bars come in a multi-piece format meant for sharing, rather than single-serve wrapping.
“Kaki’s was never meant to just be a snack on a shelf. It was built around the small, everyday moments Singaporeans already share with each other, over coffee, over breakfast, over the little rituals we return to again and again. This is the first time we have built a brand from the ground up, and we wanted it to feel like something that brings people closer, not just something they eat alone,” said Pamela Loo, Deputy CEO, The Cocoa Trees.
Kaki’s is available at The Cocoa Trees stores across Singapore and online at www.thecocoatrees.com.
