Cafe Loyalty Program for Coffee Shops

A cafe loyalty program has to be quicker than the coffee, because nobody in a morning queue wants to download an app or fill in a form. A QR code on the counter or a link on your website opens your branded pass, and one tap adds it to Apple Wallet or Google Wallet. From then on you can reach your regulars' lock screens with a new seasonal drink, a change to your opening hours or a reason to pop back in this afternoon, and reward the habits that keep them coming back.

THE PAIN POINT

Why Cafe Loyalty Schemes Struggle to Keep Daily Regulars

A coffee shop lives on habit. The same faces come in most mornings, but the moment a new place opens on their route, there is nothing that keeps you in their day. Paper stamp cards end up in the wash or at the bottom of a bag. Asking for an email address at the counter holds up the queue at the busiest time of day, and an app is more than anyone wants for a flat white. So you can't tell your regulars apart from passing trade, and you have no way to reach either of them when the afternoon goes quiet.

THE SOLUTION

A Coffee Shop Pass That Rewards Regulars and Reaches Their Lock Screen

PushPass puts your cafe's own branded pass in your customers' Apple Wallet or Google Wallet, next to the payment card they tap at your till. You send notifications straight to their lock screen whenever you choose, and each one can link wherever you send them, from your order-ahead page to this week's specials. Our loyalty platform lets customers earn points for the actions you pick and climb levels you name yourself, so your regulars can see their status every time they open their wallet. You can notify everyone, one level or a single customer, and the dashboard shows how many people joined from each QR code and link.

Common Questions About Cafe Loyalty Program for Coffee Shops

Can customers join our cafe loyalty program in the time it takes to make their coffee?

Yes, they scan the QR code on your counter or cup sleeve and one tap adds your pass, usually before the milk has finished steaming. Nobody fills anything in, so the queue keeps moving.

Can we name our loyalty levels after our coffee?

You can name each level whatever suits your cafe, such as Single Shot, Double Shot and Barista's Favorite, and the name shows on the front of every customer's pass. You set the points needed to reach each one.

Can regulars hear about a new seasonal drink before anyone else?

Send the notification to your top level first, so your most loyal customers get the first taste, then send it to every pass holder a day or two later.

Can customers share the pass with colleagues on the office coffee run?

Yes, they show the QR code on their pass and each colleague adds it with one tap. The customer who shared earns the points you set for every person who joins, and each new holder can share it again. Rewarding the person who shares is one of the benefits of a wallet pass that a paper stamp card can't match.

Does it work for a coffee cart or market stall?

Yes, put the QR code on your cart and the link on your website, then send a notification each morning to tell regulars where you're trading that day. The pass goes wherever you do.

Can we let regulars know when we open late or close early?

Send a quick notification to every pass holder and it reaches their lock screen before they set off, which saves a wasted trip and a disappointed regular.
