Word origin

The word 'redeemable' originates from the Old French word 'redimer', which means 'to buy back'. It entered the English language in the late 14th century, initially used in the context of repurchasing something. Over time, its meaning expanded to include the idea of exchange or conversion into something of value, as seen in its modern financial and loyalty program contexts.
