HOW IT WORKS [Top]
We tailor your store's digital card to your deal.
We give you a sign to place next to your cashier, or you can print it out from our website.
When a customer makes a purchase, they "punch" by scanning the code on your sign with their phone.
PunchCard has 2 layers of built-in security:
GPS verification: The customer must be inside the store to scan the code.
Lockout period: You choose the amount of time they must wait before they can scan the sign's code again.
If the line is long, you can give customers a one-time use code that expires after one punch and can be scanned anywhere. These one-time use codes are printed from our website and placed in a stack behind the sign. They can also be used if a customer wants to make multiple punches during the sign's lockout period.
To redeem, customers show you the screen below, and the cashier watches as they redeem. The number of redemptions decreases by 1. You ring up the free item as you would normally without a paper card.
