More customers, more sales
Loyalty benefits are an easy way to attract new customers and get your existing ones to buy more.
A loyalty system for restaurants: your own program with no upfront investment
With Cluby, a restaurant gets its own loyalty program running in a day. Benefits, campaigns, stamp card, messaging and customer database are in one app, and starting is free for up to 100 members.
A loyal customer visits more often and spends more than a walk-in. A loyalty system makes them known to you: you know who they are, you can reward them, and you can tell them directly about a new menu, benefits and events. Cluby is not a deals app where restaurants compete on price. It is your restaurant's own program, where the benefits and the customer database are yours.
What does a restaurant loyalty system include?
Cluby brings together everything it takes to get a customer to come back:
Member benefits and campaigns → a joining benefit for new members, plus benefits redeemable daily, weekly, monthly or on chosen days. A benefit can be limited to one group, such as VIP card holders.
Digital stamp card → a lunch, coffee or product card whose stamps collect on the phone.
Member, VIP and stakeholder cards → cards that are sold or given free, subscriptions and employee cards.
Events and ticket sales → tickets sold in the app with no per-ticket sales commission.
Customer messaging → push notifications, in-app messages and emails to members.
Customer database and analytics → every member's visits and redeemed benefits, the age and gender split of your customer base, and the results of benefits and events.
Automations → for example a birthday gift that goes out to members by itself.
How does the program work for the customer?
A customer joins with one action: scanning the QR code at the counter, tapping an NFC card with their phone, or opening the join link from your website or social media.
They also join automatically when they get their first stamp or buy a ticket.
After that, benefits, stamps and tickets are on their phone. The app is free for customers, and the program also works in the browser. When a customer comes in to redeem a benefit, staff see it at the till, and the same visit usually includes other purchases too.
Why your own program instead of a deals app?
In a deals app your restaurant is one offer among many, and the customer relationship stays with the app's owner. With your own loyalty program:
The customer database is yours. Member data is used only by your restaurant, is never shared with others, and is handled in line with GDPR.
You decide the benefits, their timing and who sees them.
You message your customers directly, with no middleman.
Your restaurant has its own profile page in the app: logo, details, the benefits and features in use, and optionally links to table booking and the like. Customers see your restaurant, not a list of competitors.
What does a loyalty system cost?
Starting is free. Cluby costs nothing for up to 100 members per restaurant, and all features, onboarding support and marketing materials are available right away. Once you pass 100 members, pricing is based on member count and starts at €29 per month. A member is a Cluby app user who has joined your restaurant's program.
There is no setup fee, no long contract, and card payment is a free billing option. For chains and groups we build a custom package and pricing.
How does getting started work?
1. Sign up on the website whenever it suits you. The account is free.
2. A short onboarding session: you create your first benefits and stamp card in Partner Hub with our specialist.
3. Materials for the counter in your restaurant's own look, both printed and digital, free of charge. The NFC card is shipped to your restaurant.
4. Staff ask at the till whether the customer is already a member. This one habit decides how fast the program grows.
No POS integration is needed. Restolution users can have stamps collect automatically from purchases.
