Hi and welcome to my blog! If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting and do come back.

QuBe from Quintessentially is an elite social network that I stumbled across. It has close ties with the real world and offers its members various levels of membership that offer various levels of kickback at a variety of venues, parties and restaurants (I think).

The reason that I say I think and that I do not know is that their registration costs look like this:

Apparently the membership is strictly limited and monitored and the network is leaning more to a “club” than a network. Members can apply and if successful, receive all the necessary paraphenalia and the “Beyond Black” credit card.

From the websites benefits section:

The Benefits

Quintessentially is a club, a club created entirely to make life that much easier, that much richer and that much more fun for all its members. We believe we have an irresistible package of offers, privileges, bespoke services and access to inside track information, which will make your annual fee seem like the best deal you’ve ever done. These benefits are only a selection of what we are capable of and you can always ask the team at Quintessentially if there are benefits at thousands of other places currently not listed in the Guest area of the site. To find out more about them click on the links below.

The site and its features seem to operate in over 80 countries where all benefits are offered. Have a look and if you think you are worth the ride, then send in an application. Let me know how it goes when you get it in! There is definitely a “club” feel to the site and I am aware of a few South Africans who are on the site and making use of it.
