Digital Loyalty Cards That Customers Actually Use
Paper punch cards get lost. Apps get deleted. A digital loyalty card that lives in your customer's Apple or Google Wallet stays put. Revio puts your loyalty program in a wallet pass that customers carry everywhere. There's no app to download, no sign-up to fill out, and nothing to forget at home. Over 480 merchants in 30+ countries use Revio to keep customers coming back.
A digital loyalty card is the smartphone version of the old paper punch card or points card. Instead of stamping a physical card or scanning a separate app, customers add a pass to their Apple Wallet or Google Wallet with one tap. The pass tracks stamps, points, or discount progress on its own, syncs in real time when staff scan a QR code, and sends push notifications straight to the customer's lock screen. For coffee shops, restaurants, salons, retail stores, bakeries, gyms, and the like, digital cards fix what's wrong with physical ones. Customers lose them, staff forget to stamp them, and the business ends up with no data on who its loyal customers actually are.
Benefits
Key benefits
No App Download Required
Your customers don't need to install anything. They scan a QR code, tap "Add to Wallet," and the loyalty card is saved for good in their Apple Wallet or Google Wallet. Enrollment takes under 10 seconds. This is the biggest advantage digital cards have over app-based programs. Studies show 77% of consumers delete a loyalty app within the first week, while wallet passes keep a 95%+ retention rate because there's nothing for the customer to maintain.
Always In Their Pocket
A digital loyalty card sits next to Apple Pay, boarding passes, and event tickets in the customer's phone wallet. They see it every time they open their wallet, so your brand stays in front of them through the day. Research shows 35% of paper punch cards are lost before completion. With a digital card, completion rates climb to 60-70% because the card is never left at home, never washed in a pocket, and never thrown out.
Push Notifications to Lock Screen
Send promotions, reward updates, and visit reminders to your customer's lock screen through the wallet pass. These aren't SMS or emails that get buried. They show up next to text messages and calls. Wallet notifications see open rates above 85%, compared to 20% for email and 45% for SMS. You can fire one off for double-stamp days, expiring rewards, or a time-limited flash promotion.
Real-Time Tracking & Analytics
Every scan, stamp, and redemption is tracked for you. Your dashboard shows who your most loyal customers are, how often they come in, when they come in, and how they redeem. You can't get any of this from paper cards. It lets you set reward thresholds, time promotions, and segment customers based on what's actually happening instead of guessing.
Process
How it works
Create Your Card in Minutes
Pick from 15 designed templates (coffee shop, restaurant, salon, retail, and more) or start from scratch. Upload your logo, choose your brand colors, set your reward rules (stamps, points, or discount tracking), and preview the result on a simulated phone screen. You don't need design skills. The card designer handles layout, contrast, and wallet formatting for you.
Customers Add It Instantly
Print your enrollment QR code at the counter, add it to receipts, or share the link on social media. Customers scan with their phone camera, tap "Add to Apple Wallet" or "Save to Google Wallet," and the card is saved. There's no app to download, no account to create, and no email to hand over. Enrollment works on any smartphone and finishes in under 10 seconds.
Staff Scan to Record Visits
When a customer comes in, staff open the Revio scanner (a web app, nothing to install) and scan the QR code on the customer's wallet pass. The stamp or points go on right away, and the customer sees their balance update on their phone. The scan takes under 3 seconds and works even when the internet drops.
Customers Earn and Redeem Rewards
When a customer hits the reward threshold (10 stamps, 100 points, etc.), the pass updates to show they've earned a reward. Staff check it on the next visit, tap to redeem, and the cycle starts over. The card runs the whole thing (enrollment, earning, redemption, and re-engagement) with no manual work beyond the scan.
