When customers with your loyalty card are near your café, salon or shop, GEO push notifications can remind them of it, right when popping in is easy.
Just around the corner ☕ Pop in, your next stamp is waiting.
GEO push notifications, also called location-based notifications, are messages a phone shows when its owner comes close to a particular place. It is geofencing marketing in its simplest form: an invisible boundary around your business, and a reminder for the people who step inside it.
With BonusQR, the people who step inside are your own customers. Their phone can remind them of their loyalty card, on many phones with a short sentence you write yourself.
There is no campaign to plan and no ad budget to spend. Switch the feature on once and it works every day at your locations with an address, up to 10 of them.
Just around the corner ☕ Pop in, your next stamp is waiting.
A notification on the phone screen that reminds them of their loyalty card with you.
It can appear when a customer is near one of your locations, never at a random moment on the other side of town.
Customers are reminded of their loyalty card without having to think of it or look for it.
A short sentence of up to 100 characters that you write yourself and can change at any time.
BonusQR doesn't follow customers or keep a history of where they have been. Their position is only compared with your locations and never stored.
Three steps in the BonusQR admin. Everything after that happens on its own.
Each location gets its place on the map from the address in its settings, picked from the suggestions. Up to 10 locations per loyalty program.
Open Extensions & Integrations → Geo notifications and turn the switch on.
Add a short sentence, or keep the default “Your loyalty card is ready”, and save. Within a few minutes it works on its own.
That's it. When a customer with your loyalty card is near one of your locations, their phone can show the notification.
One short, friendly sentence is all it takes. Write it the way you would greet a regular who is passing by.
The message is the same for every customer and you can change it whenever you like, for example with the seasons. If you leave it empty, customers see “Your loyalty card is ready”. Some phones show their own wording instead.

+1 stampCustomers rarely forget you on purpose. They simply don't think of you while they are out and about. A GEO notification reminds them of your loyalty card while they are near your business.
GEO notifications work at up to 10 locations of your loyalty program, and each one only needs its address. Run several cafés or salons? Customers can get the notification near whichever one they are close to.
The GEO notifications settings list your locations and show which already have a position and which still need an address.
Both bring customers back. They simply work at different moments, so the best results come from using both.
Everything owners ask before they switch them on.
A GEO push notification, also called a location-based notification, is a message a phone shows when its owner is near a particular place. With BonusQR, customers near your business can get a notification that reminds them of their loyalty card, on many phones with a short sentence you write yourself.
Geofencing marketing reaches people based on where they are: an invisible boundary, a geofence, is drawn around a place, and people who enter it get a message. It is often done with paid ads aimed at strangers or with a custom-built app. BonusQR GEO notifications reach your own loyalty customers instead, with no ad budget and no app of your own to build.
No. BonusQR doesn't track customers or keep a location history. A customer's current position is only used to check whether they are near one of your locations, and it isn't stored. Notifications only reach customers who have allowed their phone to use their location.
The notification appears when a customer is near one of your locations. The exact distance and timing are handled automatically and can vary, so there is no radius for you to set.
Yes. Write a short, friendly sentence of up to 100 characters. If you leave it empty, customers see “Your loyalty card is ready”. Some phones show their own wording instead.
No. GEO notifications are not a mass campaign: a notification only appears when a customer is actually near one of your locations, never to everyone at once.
Up to 10 locations of one loyalty program. Each location needs an address in its settings. If a program has more, the first 10 with an address in its list are used.
Nothing extra. GEO notifications are part of the Basic and Premium plans, with no fee per notification. You switch them on in the BonusQR admin under Extensions & Integrations → Geo notifications.
Create your BonusQR account, choose Basic or Premium and switch on GEO notifications for your locations.
