You also have the option of donating your Rewards Points to a "pool fund" by selecting the Pool Funding option on your profile. The funds will be allocated in accordance with the BBBEE Socio Economic Development criteria.
You can redeem your Rewards Points online at feenix.org with your activated* UCount Rewards Card.
