Forge
What it is
Forge is an AI loyalty and social commerce platform for restaurant hospitality brands. It gives guests rewards to earn and redeem, in-app ordering and reordering, and access to VIP memberships. Restaurant teams can run email and SMS campaigns, segment audiences, and use an AI marketing copilot to target customers with data from a restaurant’s loyalty app. The homepage lists integrations with Square, Toast, and Clover. Forge is available on the web, Android, and iOS; Forge Rewards also publishes restaurant-branded apps through Google Play and the Apple App Store for iPhone. Its partner form asks about a restaurant brand, store count, and POS company. Forge says it collects names, phone numbers, user IDs, location, product interactions, and partner information that includes POS authorization and transaction data. Pricing is on request. The company says support typically responds within one business day; for food quality, refunds, or missing items, customers should contact the restaurant first. The privacy policy does not specify a security certification or compliance standard.
