Guests join from the QR code on your table and can keep your card in Apple Wallet, Google Wallet or the BonusQR app. Your staff scan it when the bill is paid, on any phone or tablet – no POS needed. Start free with unlimited guests.
You have received a new coupon.
Dessert FREE
A restaurant loyalty program rewards guests for coming back: a free dessert after the tenth main course, credit from every bill, or a welcome coupon as soon as they join. It gives someone who enjoyed one meal a reason to choose you again and turns a good first visit into a regular table.
With BonusQR, guests scan the QR code on your table stand, sign in with Google, Apple or e-mail and can keep your card in Apple Wallet or Google Wallet. When the bill is paid, your staff scan the guest’s code, and the stamps, credit or coupon are added straight away.
There is nothing to install at the till and no plastic cards to print. You can start on the free plan with unlimited guests and 7 types of loyalty programs, and move to a paid plan only when you want one of its features.
One evening at a restaurant that runs BonusQR: what the guest does, what your staff do, and what waits on the next visit.
Guests scan the QR code on your table stand. It opens your restaurant’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.
QR code table standThey 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 no paper card to lose.
Apple Wallet loyalty card
Your staff scan the guest’s code with BonusQR on a phone or tablet and answer one prompt: the bill amount for cashback or a spending goal, and 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 guest’s app, and on the wallet card if they saved one. Staff scan its QR code to redeem it, and stamps or spending 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 program set up for restaurants. Keep it, change it, or build your own from the ideas below.
Your Google Maps listingName, address and photo filled in for you
Restaurant / CafeYour starter program
Type your restaurant’s name as it appears on Google Maps and choose “Restaurant / Cafe”. BonusQR fills in the name, address and photo and sets up these three rewards, which you can look over before you print your QR code. No Google Maps listing yet? The custom setup takes about five minutes.
Every main course earns a stamp, and ten stamps give a coupon for a free one. Easy to explain at the table and quick for staff to add.
Digital stamp cardGuests get a share of each bill back as credit and can pay one of their next bills with it once the credit covers it. It rewards bigger orders without discounting today’s meal.
CashbackBill amounts add up from visit to visit. When a guest reaches your goal, they get a coupon, for example a bottle of wine for the table.
Reward for spendNew guests get a coupon as soon as they join, such as a coffee after the meal, so the first visit already leads to a second.
Welcome couponA percentage off in a time window you choose, such as weekday afternoons. Staff see it when they scan the guest’s code and take it off the bill.
Happy-hour discountA coupon goes out automatically on the guest’s birthday, or a few days before, using the date in their profile.
Birthday couponOne offer can combine several programs. It needs one main program, such as a stamp card, cashback or a reward for spend; a welcome coupon or a discount can sit beside it.
Running a café as well? Loyalty program for cafés
A loyalty card is one part of a restaurant visit. These features cover the rest, from the street outside to the gift a guest buys for a friend, and each one shows the plan it needs.
Members who allow location can get your own short message, up to 100 characters, when they are near your restaurant. BonusQR stores no location history.
How GEO notifications work
Draw your floor plan with tables and their capacities. Guests book by party size, bigger parties get tables joined in one room, and bookings by signed-in guests are linked to their loyalty account. Bookings add no stamps or points.
Table reservation systemUpload your menu or price list as a PDF of up to 20 MB, and its pages appear as a Menu tab on your restaurant’s page in the app.
Digital menu
Signed-in guests rate their visit with 1 to 5 stars and a comment. If you switch on the Google step and your Google listing is linked, guests who give 4 or 5 stars can continue to your Google review form with their comment copied; nothing is posted for them. Lower ratings are not sent to Google and stay in your admin.
Customer feedbackAfter the number of visits you choose, BonusQR asks the guest once, by e-mail and push notification, to review you on Google. It needs your linked Google profile.
Google review invitations
Sell a dinner for two as a gift: the buyer pays online in the app, and the voucher arrives by e-mail with its QR code. It is one coupon, not a money balance; payments run through Stripe and BonusQR keeps a 5% commission.
Digital gift vouchersGuests fall into groups by your rules, such as regulars, guests who come mostly in the evening (from 5 pm) or guests not seen for 30 days, and you send each group news or a coupon.
Automated customer groupsAlso on Basic: 5 staff logins with a history of who scanned, several restaurants in one account and your own link, such as bonusqr.com/your-restaurant. Several locations in one account

Everything in Basic, plus:
What restaurant owners ask before they start.
The one your guests understand at a glance. A stamp card – for example, the tenth main course on the house – suits regulars who come often; cashback or a reward for reaching a spending goal suits restaurants where bills vary, and a welcome coupon gives first-time guests a reason to come back. With BonusQR you can combine several programs in one offer and add or replace programs later. Points are available on the Basic plan.
Guests scan the QR code on your table stand, 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 staff scan the guest’s code with a phone, tablet, QR code reader or the BonusQR Scanner and enter the bill amount or the number of items. Stamps, cashback credit and coupons are added automatically, and a coupon is redeemed by scanning its QR code.
No. Your loyalty page works in the browser, and guests 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 cash register – staff scan guests’ codes with a phone or tablet. If you want discounts and rewards applied directly at the till, a POS integration through the BonusQR REST API is possible as a custom project, quoted separately.
You can start on the BonusQR free plan, free forever, with unlimited guests and 7 types of loyalty programs, including the stamp card, cashback and reward for spend. Basic and Premium add more program types and restaurant features such as table booking, the PDF menu and customer feedback; the pricing page shows their prices in your currency. No credit card is needed to sign up.
Type your restaurant’s name as it appears on Google Maps and choose “Restaurant / Cafe”. BonusQR fills in the name, address and photo and creates a starter program – a welcome coupon, a reward for spend and cashback – that you can look over straight away. No Google Maps listing yet? The custom setup takes about five minutes. Then print the free table stand, sticker or flyer with your QR code and start scanning.
Yes, on the Basic plan. Table booking works with your floor plan, table capacities and party size, and bookings made by signed-in guests are linked to their loyalty account; bookings themselves do not add stamps or points. Your PDF menu or price list appears as its own tab on your page in the app.
With customer feedback (Basic plan), signed-in guests rate their visit with 1 to 5 stars and a comment. If you switch on the Google step and your Google listing is linked, guests who give 4 or 5 stars can continue to your Google review form with their text copied – nothing is posted for them. Lower ratings are not sent to Google; they stay in your admin. On Premium, BonusQR can also invite guests by e-mail and push notification to review you on Google after the number of visits you choose.
