Loyalty & engagement

Turn Your Best Customers into Recurring Revenue

A paid membership takes the customers who already come in every week and turns them into predictable monthly income, while making them visit more, not less.

  • Monthly or annual recurring billing
  • Sell from your app, a link, or the counter
  • Member-only pricing, perks, and early access

Predictable Income, from People Already Spending

A membership fee is revenue that arrives whether or not someone walks in that month, and members walk in more often than non-members anyway.

  • Monthly and annual billing, handled for you
  • Revenue that compounds with every sign-up
  • Sell from the app, a shareable link, or at the counter
  • Cancel and renewal handling built in

Perks That Cost You Less than They Are Worth

The best membership benefits offer high perceived value and low marginal cost: a standing discount, early access, bonus points, or a free item on a slow day.

  • A standing member discount on every visit
  • Early access to drops, events, and sales
  • Bonus points or point multipliers for members
  • Member-only days and exclusive items

Members Behave Differently

Once someone has paid for a membership, they are invested. Our merchants consistently see paid members visit more often and spend more per trip than non-members.

  • Higher visit frequency than non-members
  • Higher average ticket per visit
  • A clear reason to choose you over the alternative
  • Longer-lasting customer relationships

Why it matters

The Tier That Pays for the Rest of the Program

Paid membership is the one loyalty mechanic that generates revenue directly rather than discounting it. For many of our merchants, it covers the platform on its own.

It Is Revenue, Not a Discount

Every other loyalty mechanic gives away value. This one takes payment upfront and then earns the visit.

It Filters for Commitment

People who pay to be members are self-selecting as your most valuable customers. Now you know exactly who they are.

It Runs on the Same System

Membership status sits on the same customer record as points, visits, and messaging, so perks apply automatically.

FAQ

Questions We Get About This

What do merchants usually charge?

It varies by category. Ideally, the right price is one where a regular customer saves more than the subscription fee in a typical month. We work that out with you during onboarding using your actual visit and spend data.

Does this replace my points program?

No. It sits right on top. Members keep earning points while gaining an additional layer of perks, which is exactly what makes the membership feel worth paying for.
