What is a digital punch card?
A digital punch card is a stamp card that lives on a phone instead of in a pocket. It works like the paper kind: one punch per visit, and a free item when the card is full. The difference is where it lives. The card sits in Apple Wallet or Google Wallet, so the customer does not install an app. They scan a QR code at the counter and tap "Add to Wallet". When they pay, staff scan the card with any phone and the new punch shows up at once. The customer can see how many punches are left. The shop sees who comes back, how often, and who is one punch away from a reward. Unlike paper, it cannot be lost or faked, and you can send a message to the customer’s lock screen.

|---|---|---|
| Easy to lose | Yes | No, it is in the phone |
| Easy to fake | Yes, with any hole punch | No, each punch is scanned |

| Cost per new card | Printing | None |
A punch card is the simplest loyalty program there is: buy 9, get the 10th free. It works because everyone gets it right away. The problem is the paper. People lose it, leave it at home, or start a new one each time. A digital punch card keeps the same simple deal. It just lives in the phone wallet, where people keep their bank cards. Now every punch counts, and you see who comes back.
Benefits
Key benefits
Joins in One Scan
Put a QR code at the counter. The customer scans it, types a name and phone number, and taps "Add to Wallet". It takes under a minute, while they wait to pay.
Punch With Any Phone
Staff open the scanner in a web browser on any phone. They scan the card and the punch is added. No extra device and no link to your till.
A Head Start Helps
You can start each new card with a free punch or two. People finish a card they have already started. When someone is one punch away, Revio can send them a short "almost there" message.
Know Your Regulars
Paper cards tell you nothing. Here you see each customer by name, how often they come, and who stopped coming. Send that group a message to win them back.
Process
How it works
Set the Deal
Pick how many punches fill the card and what the free item is. Most shops pick 6 to 10 punches, so a regular can fill it in about a month.
Design the Card
Add your logo and colors, and pick a punch icon. The card looks like your shop, right next to the customer’s bank cards.
Print the QR Code
Stand the QR code by the till. Teach staff one line: "Scan this and today counts."
Punch and Reward
Staff scan the card at each visit. When it is full, they scan again to give the free item, and a new card starts.
