Lyoness continues its sponsoring activities in the top-division of
golf: at the press conference, which was held on 3rd November 2014 in
Vienna, the company announced that it will continue to be title
sponsor of Austria's largest golf event until 2019. "Being part of
the European Tour this tournament provides the ideal communication
platform for networking with members and partners on an international
level," company spokesperson Mathias Vorbach is excited about
extending the involvement in golf. The Lyoness Open 2015 will take
place from 11th to 14th June 2015 at Diamond Country Club in
Atzenbrugg. Further, the status of the tournament will be enhanced:
The prize money will be increased to 1.5 Million euro.

The Lyoness Open will be a green golf event also next year being
committed to environmental protection and sustainability. As it has
done in the last three years the Greenfinity Foundation, the Lyoness-
owned environmental foundation, will take concrete measures in order
to ecologically improve the golf tournament.

Ground-breaking partnership with ÖGV (Austrian Golf Association)

Lyoness took the opportunity to announce a long-term partnership
with the Austrian Golf Association (ÖGV). From March 2015 the ÖGV
membership card is planned to not only bear the Lyoness logo but also
offer all of the advantages of a Lyoness Cashback Card. ÖGV card
owners can make use of shopping benefits at selected Lyoness loyalty
merchants and at the same time support youth work in their own club
with every purchase made as soon as the card's Cashback function is
activated. One per cent of the shopping turnover generated by using
the ÖGV card in the Lyoness merchant network will benefit the project
"Hello Juniors". Currently Lyoness and ÖGV are establishing the
technical infrastructure as well as the merchant network for this
partnership. Details concerning the partnership will be announced at
the beginning of March in a special press conference.
