I'm seeking information regarding BBX which suggests it is an international form of cashless exchange. This concept is entirely new in the place where I live but there is a high value promotion

Well that explains why I didn't know about it. It is limited to a few countries.
There's a fee even for the lowest limit: https://www.joinbbx.com/General/JoinPlan?RB=Bronze (read the fine print at the bottom)
I'd stay with the big boys, no-fee credit credit cards.

Yeh we get to join without fee because we are part of a promotion. Yes I note it appears they have been promoting themselves in China and SE Asia. I suppose this works something like frequent flyer points or savings coupons but I expect you have answered the concern I have which is limited application. I can see us running some competitions where the prize is a hotel stay bought with points

It may say it is in China, but it would be very limited, China has a bank card system called Union Pay, works at any and every business that I know of, and has applications that allow online payments.
I know two of the larger onine companies in China are doing some new deals, but from any and everything I have seen, nothing much happening here with it.

Thanks Chuck, yes I think there is a lot of hyperbole
