The OSL Holdings rewards program also offers additional revenue streams for those businesses that issue rewards to their customers who then redeem those rewards at other retailers or businesses. The rewards program generates revenue to OSL through a transaction fee on all rewards usage at retail locations.  Additionally OSL partners can issue rewards with ease while driving a revenue stream from their member bases through focused promotion on how members can use their rewards.
