Sausalito, California, United States
What it is
CardFree Loyalty is a configurable restaurant loyalty platform for branded rewards programs and customer engagement. Restaurants can add enrollment to web and app ordering, kiosks, tableside service, point-of-sale systems, and receipt scans. Programs may include single or multiple membership tiers, reward catalogs, and banked points. Customers can earn through purchases, milestones, multipliers, challenges, referrals, gift-card activity, and other listed rules, then redeem points for dollar or percentage discounts on orders or menu items. A merchant portal supports audience segmentation, offer creation, campaign analytics, and campaigns through email, SMS, push, and geolocation. Campaigns can run immediately, on a schedule, or in response to events such as birthdays, transactions, or inactivity. Customers can manage personal gift cards and send digital cards by SMS or email. The platform lists integrations across ordering, kiosks, tableside service, POS, and receipt scans, and is available on Android, iOS, and web. Pricing is on request; businesses can contact CardFree or book a demo.
