For Independent Retail
Give customers another reason to choose your shop again.
Winning a customer's first purchase is valuable. A simple loyalty programme can give them another reason to choose your shop again next time.
GoLoyal helps you create a simple digital loyalty programme built around the way your customers actually shop — with personal help choosing the reward, setting up the card and getting ready to launch.
No customer app. No new till system. Personal help getting set up.
Turn a first purchase into a reason to come back.
Independent retailers often benefit from customers choosing them more than once. After the first purchase, the next commercial opportunity is the next visit.
Customers have many alternatives when deciding where to spend next time. A simple loyalty programme can provide an additional reason to return — complementing good products, service and customer experience, rather than replacing them.
The reward should fit the way your customers actually shop.
These are example approaches, not fixed GoLoyal templates — the sensible structure depends on what customers commonly buy, how frequently customers realistically return, product/service pricing considerations you understand, what behaviour you want to encourage, what reward feels worthwhile and what staff can explain easily.
Repeat purchases
Reward a customer after a number of qualifying purchases.
Repeat visits
Offer a straightforward benefit after several qualifying visits.
Regular customers
Give returning customers a simple reward for continuing to choose the shop.
GoLoyal helps you think through a sensible programme, rather than prescribing one "correct" reward.
Simple for the customer. Straightforward for the team.
Joining and using the card stays simple for customers and for your team.
Customer scans your joining QR
They join your loyalty programme
They can keep their card in Apple Wallet or Google Wallet
Your team scans the customer's loyalty card when they return
Loyalty should fit around the sale, not complicate it.
GoLoyal is built to fit around a busy shop, not add to it.

No new till system
