Multi-location and franchise loyalty

The moment you open a second site, loyalty stops being a marketing question and becomes an accounting one. A customer earns their card at one branch and redeems it at another. Somebody has to account for that.

One card, every branch

Customers collect and redeem anywhere you trade. They should not have to think about which door they walked through.

Shared customer database

One customer record across the group, not a separate list per site that nobody can reconcile.

Staff scoped to their branch

A barista assigned to one site cannot scan, stamp or redeem at another. Enforced on the server, not just hidden in the interface.

Settlement, not guesswork

Every reward records where it was earned and where it was given away, so the cross-branch balance is a report rather than an argument.

How franchise settlement works

Each branch has two numbers: rewards earned here, and rewards given here. A branch that hands over more than it generates is carrying cost for the group; a branch that generates more than it hands over is subsidising the others. The settlement column is simply the difference, per branch, over any date range you choose.

Franchised versus corporate sites

Mark a branch as franchised and record who operates it. The brand keeps a single loyalty program and one customer database, while each operator gets their own staff, scanner and numbers.

Choosing the right structure

Most groups under five sites want one program across all of them — the shared card is the point. Larger groups sometimes restrict a program to specific branches, which is supported. What we would not recommend is a separate program per site: it fragments your customer data and confuses your regulars.

Common questions

How many locations are included?
However many you run. Pricing is $25 a month for one café and $15 for each additional location, so you never have to change plan to open another branch.
Can a customer earn at one branch and redeem at another?
Yes, and the report shows exactly that so branches can settle between themselves.
Can I stop a staff member scanning at other branches?
Yes. Assign them to specific branches and every other branch is refused by the server.
