Shoppers join from the QR code at your checkout and keep your card in Apple Wallet, Google Wallet or the BonusQR app. Your staff scan it when they pay, on any phone or tablet – no POS needed. Start free with unlimited customers.
You have received a new coupon.
Fresh bread FREE
A grocery store loyalty program gives neighbourhood shoppers a reason to do their weekly shop with you rather than at the supermarket chain: credit back on every basket, a reward after every tenth shopping trip, or fresh bread on the house after a few loaves. Small, regular purchases are exactly what a loyalty card counts best.
With BonusQR, shoppers scan the QR code at your checkout, sign in with Google, Apple or e-mail and can keep your card in Apple Wallet or Google Wallet. When they pay, your cashier scans the shopper’s code, and the credit, visit or stamp is added straight away.
There is nothing to connect to your till and no plastic cards to order. You can start on the free plan with unlimited customers and 7 types of loyalty programs, and move to a paid plan only when you want one of its features.
One day at a store that runs BonusQR: what the shopper does, what your cashier does, and what waits on the next visit.
Shoppers scan the QR code on the stand at your checkout or on a sticker by the entrance. It opens your store’s page in the BonusQR app, with your rewards on it. The stand, a sticker, a QR page and a flyer are free to print from your account.
Free printed QR materialsThey sign in with Google, Apple or e-mail and can add your card to Apple Wallet or Google Wallet, or keep it in the BonusQR app. Nothing to download first, and one card fewer in the wallet.
Apple Wallet loyalty card
Your cashier scans the shopper’s code with BonusQR on a phone or tablet and answers one prompt: the amount for cashback, or the number of items for a stamp card. A reward for visits needs nothing typed at all.
BonusQR ScannerWhen a goal is reached, the coupon waits in the shopper’s app, and on the wallet card if they saved one. The cashier scans its QR code to redeem it, and visits or stamps above the goal carry over to the next one.
Scan with a phone or tablet, a USB or Bluetooth reader, or the optional BonusQR Scanner for the counter. No POS is needed; a POS link through the BonusQR REST API is a custom project, quoted separately.
POS integrationBonusQR starts you with a simple program. Keep it, change it, or build your own from the ideas below.
Your Google Maps listingName, address and photo filled in for you
OtherYour starter program
Type your store’s name as it appears on Google Maps and choose “Other”. BonusQR fills in the name, address and photo and sets up a 10% welcome discount and 5% cashback. The rate of a saved cashback cannot be changed, so if 5% does not fit your margins, replace it with your own rate before you invite shoppers. No Google Maps listing yet? The custom setup takes about five minutes.
Shoppers get a share of each purchase back as credit and can pay with it on a later visit once the credit covers it. Set a rate that fits grocery margins; it rewards the weekly shop without a discount on today’s basket.
CashbackEvery scan counts as a visit, and the tenth earns a coupon, such as a free coffee or a product of your choice. Nothing to type at the checkout, so the queue keeps moving.
Reward for visitsEach loaf or coffee to go earns a stamp, and the tenth is on the house. A stamp card suits the products shoppers buy every few days.
Digital stamp cardA percentage off in a time window you choose, such as the last hour before closing. The cashier sees it when they scan the shopper’s code and takes it off the bill.
Fixed discountNew members get a coupon as soon as they join, such as a discount on their next shop, so a first visit already leads to a second.
Welcome couponShoppers earn points for what they spend and choose a reward from your list, from a bag of coffee to a basket of local products. Points are available on the Basic plan.
Points systemOne offer can combine several programs. It needs one main program, such as a stamp card, cashback or a reward for visits; a welcome coupon or a discount can sit beside it.
Selling coffee to go as well? Coffee shops
A loyalty card is one part of the weekly shop. These features cover the rest, from the street outside to the offers that bring shoppers back, and each one shows the plan it needs.
Post this week’s offers in the app, free on every plan. Basic also sends them by push notification and e-mail, once every 4 days; Premium once a day.
News & PUSH Notifications
Members who allow location can get your own short message, up to 100 characters, when they are near your store. BonusQR stores no location history.
GEO notificationsShoppers fall into groups by your rules, such as regulars, big spenders or shoppers not seen for 30 days. Groups are recalculated every hour, and you send each group news or a coupon.
Automated customer groupsCreate your own coupons and give them to one shopper or run them as a campaign. Shoppers are notified when a coupon arrives and redeem it with a scan at the checkout.
Coupon Management
Signed-in shoppers rate their visit with 1 to 5 stars and a comment. If you switch on the Google step and your Google listing is linked, those who give 4 or 5 stars can continue to your Google review form with their comment copied; nothing is posted for them.
Customer FeedbackCashiers scan and redeem with their own login, and you see who scanned what. They do not see your customer list or settings. Basic includes 5 staff logins, Premium unlimited.
Staff Access Control
Run all your stores from one admin: one shared program, where shoppers collect in one store and redeem in another, or a separate program for each.
Multiple businessesAlso on Basic: 5 staff logins with a history of who scanned, several locations in one account and your own link, such as bonusqr.com/your-business. Several locations in one account

What store owners ask before they start.
The one your shoppers understand at a glance. Cashback gives credit back on every basket, a reward for visits counts every shopping trip with nothing typed at the checkout, and a stamp card suits the bakery or coffee to go. With BonusQR you can combine several programs in one offer and add or replace programs later. Points are available on the Basic plan.
Shoppers scan the QR code at your checkout, which opens your page in the BonusQR app, sign in with Google, Apple or e-mail and can save the loyalty card to Apple Wallet or Google Wallet. When they pay, your cashier scans the shopper’s code with a phone, tablet, QR code reader or the BonusQR Scanner and, for cashback or stamps, enters the amount or the number of items. Credit, visits and coupons are added automatically, and a coupon is redeemed by scanning its QR code.
No. Your loyalty page works in the browser, and shoppers can save the card to Apple Wallet or Google Wallet; the BonusQR app for iPhone and Android is optional.
No. BonusQR works without any connection to your till – the cashier scans the shopper’s code with a phone or tablet. If you want rewards applied directly at the till, a POS integration through the BonusQR REST API is possible as a custom project, quoted separately.
