Every groundbreaking business across the globe is using a punch card to establish loyalty between their customers. I bet you wouldn’t be surprised to know that people lose them, not to mention they aren’t the most environmentally-friendly. Fat wallet syndrome will be the death of the paper industry, which is why we encourage virtual punch cards.
This digital rendition of the classic punch card drastically decreases cost, fraud, and the likelihood that your customer will forget they ever came to your business in the first place. It is configured into the SMS platform and is ready to use globally within minutes.
How Does It Work?
-
Set the number of redemptions necessary to receive the free offer.
-
Create the keyword to get people to opt-in and receive their virtual punch card
-
Build the mobile coupon for the promotion. (Barcodes and QR Codes are automatically generated and can be scanned from the customer’s phone)
Each participant texts in or enters their mobile number into a kiosk and instantly receives a text message link to their virtual punch card. Each time they make a purchase a unique coupon code is entered, and the punch card/app tracks their progress until they reach the offer.
Once the offer is reached, the customer will receive a one-time use FREE coupon that includes an auto-generated bar code used for tracking and reporting.
