What is a digital membership card?
A digital membership card is a member card that lives in a phone wallet, like Apple Wallet or Google Wallet. It shows the member’s name, your logo and a QR code. It takes the place of a plastic card. A member joins from a link or a QR code and taps "Add to Wallet". There is no app to install. At the door or the counter, staff scan the QR code with a phone to check the member. The card can also carry points or a member deal. Some groups share one card with many partner shops. Each shop scans it and gives its own discount, like 10% off at a café. Every scan is saved with the place and time. So the group sees which members are active and which partners bring them in. You can also send a short message to every member’s lock screen.
Plastic card vs app vs wallet card
| Plastic card | Member app | Wallet card (Revio) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Member has to download something | No | Yes | No |
| Cost to make one more card | Print and mail | None | None |
| Easy to lose or forget | Yes | No | No |
| Staff can check it with a phone | No | Sometimes | Yes |
| Partner shops can scan it | No | Rarely | Yes |
| Send a message to members | No | Yes, if they keep the app | Yes, on the lock screen |
A plastic card gets lost. An app needs a download that most people skip. A wallet card fixes both. It sits in the wallet that is already on the phone, next to bank cards and boarding passes. Members add it in a few seconds. Your staff scan it with any phone. You can also let partner shops scan it and give members a deal. Each scan is saved, so you see who uses the card and where.
Benefits
Key benefits
No App, No Plastic
Members open a link or scan a QR code. Then they tap "Add to Wallet". The card is on their phone in seconds. You print nothing and mail nothing. A new member can join from your website, an email or a sign at the door.
Partner Shops Can Scan It
Running a perks program for a league, club or local group? Add your partner shops. Each one gets its own scanner login and sets its own deal, like 15% off. When a member shows the card, staff see "Valid member" and the deal to give. You can limit the deal to once a day per shop.
See Who Really Uses It
Every scan is saved with the place and the time. You see which members are active and which went quiet. In a perks program, you see which partners bring members in. That is the proof partners want before they renew.
Talk to Every Member
Send a short message to the lock screen of every member. Share a new partner, an event or a reminder. It reaches people who never read email. There is no fee per message.
