Restaurant Loyalty Platform

A receipt-QR loyalty programme designed for a multi-branch restaurant brand that works without touching the closed POS system: the customer scans the QR on the receipt, earns points based on the spend and redeems the reward at the till. Zero extra work for the cashier.

Starting point

What the problem was.

01

A closed POS system

Embedding code in the till software is either impossible or needs an integration that would take months. Classic loyalty integration is ruled out from the start.

02

The customer is not recognised

The brand cannot recognise a returning customer; there is no data layer to reward spend with.

03

A fast pilot is needed

The brief is not a months-long IT project but a setup that can be tested in one branch within weeks.

Approach

How we solved it.

01

Receipt analysis

We worked on a real receipt: the document number, amount, date, branch and the e-document QR already carry enough data for loyalty.

02

Architecture decision

The loyalty layer lives in its own system and talks to the till only through receipt verification. Not a single line of code goes into the POS.

03

Security design

The document number is the unique key: the same receipt cannot be scored twice. A signed token and a claim window block abuse.

04

Pilot plan

One week of preparation, 3–4 weeks for the demo MVP (mobile app plus admin panel), then a live pilot in one branch with KPI measurement.

Scope

The building blocks.

Receipt QR scan

The customer scans the e-document QR on the receipt or types the document number.

Points engine

Points based on the spend; minimum amount and claim window rules.

Double-use guard

The document number is the unique key; verification through a signed token.

Rewards & coupons

A coupon at the points threshold; redeemed at the till with a QR.

Branch rules

Managing campaigns and point rules per branch.

Admin panel

Members, receipts, points and campaigns in one panel.
