Loyalty App for Small Business — Nothing to Download

Most loyalty apps fail for one reason: nobody installs them. Revio puts your card in Apple Wallet and Google Wallet. That wallet is already on every phone. Customers scan one QR code and they are in. No download, no account, no password.

A loyalty app for small business has to work on the first visit. It has to take less than 10 seconds. And the customer does not want to install anything. Revio is made for that. There is no app for your customers. The card sits in the wallet they already have. Your staff scan cards in a web browser. You see who comes back and who stopped coming. You can be live before your next shift.

Benefits

Key benefits

01

Nothing to Install

Most loyalty apps lose people at the install step. At the counter, you ask a customer to find your app, download it, sign up and check their email. Very few do it. Most shops that try never get a real list. Revio drops that step. The customer scans a QR code and taps "Add". The card is in their wallet. They join before they finish paying.

02

Priced for One Location

Big loyalty tools sell yearly contracts with setup fees. That is why most small shops still use paper punch cards. Revio starts at $25/month for one location. There is no setup fee and no contract. Say your average sale is $20. Then about 1 extra visit a week pays for the plan. A good loyalty card brings in more than that.

03

Reach People, Not Just a Card

A paper card only works when the customer is in your shop. A wallet card can reach them at home. Your message shows on their lock screen, next to texts and calls. Far more people open it than open email. And each message is free to send. So even with no ad budget, you can win people back. Pick everyone who has not come in for 30 days. Write one line. Send.

04

Your List Is Yours

Paper cards tell you nothing. A loyalty add-on from your POS company tells you a bit. But you lose it all the day you change your POS. Revio does not depend on your POS. You can download your customer list at any time. You see how often each person visits and how many finish the card. You see your busiest hours. And you see which regulars have gone quiet. That last list is often the most useful screen of all.

Process

How it works

1

Pick Your Reward

Choose stamps or points. Then set the reward and how many visits it takes. Stamps suit set prices, like buy 8 coffees and get the 9th free. Points suit shops where people spend different amounts, like a boutique, a pharmacy or a pet store. Pick a goal most people can reach in about a month. A card that takes too long to fill is the top reason these cards die.

2

Design the Card

Upload your logo, pick your colors, and the card is done. This matters more than you think. The card sits in the wallet next to bank cards and boarding passes. People see it far more often than any app icon. A card that looks like your shop is free space for your brand, every day.

3

Put the QR at the Counter

Print the QR code to join and stand it on the counter. That one spot beats social posts, flyers and receipt notes put together. Why? It reaches people right when they are paying you. Staff only need one line: "Scan this and your next coffee counts."

4

Scan, and Watch the Numbers

Staff open the scanner in any web browser. No special device, no extra tablet. They scan the customer's card when they pay. It adds 2 or 3 seconds. After 30 days you have real numbers. You see how many joined and how many came back. You see who is close to a reward and who stopped coming. Send your first message to that last group.
