POPSTARS: The New Era

ARE YOU A POPSTAR?

Originally launched in April 2022, POPSTARS was created to cultivate a more tactile relationship with all our fans across the nation, who continue to support this dream. Two years later, Pop Music is still one of the only independent record stores in Canada with a free rewards program.

 

While the stems of the program are rather simple, fans have enjoyed the extra savings they earned collecting points on their purchases. We've hosted numerous POPSTARS Weekends over the past two years, giving members exclusive offers in-store and online.

 

In 2024, POPSTARS celebrates its 2nd Anniversary in a BIG way - we're proud to announce that there is a new version of the program that beta-launched April 1st. This premium upgrade is a major investment for Pop Music this. Over the next few weeks, members will see new kinds of offers and rewards come their way as we learn how to optimize this new tool.

Our favourite new feature is the online widget:

 

 

At nearly 10,000 registered members, POPSTARS has nearly doubled in size since last April. It's become increasingly difficult to get the message out there about any promotions or offers. This new tool drastically improves our ability to engage with our members more than ever before.
