Lose the card - Use the phone!

With mobile phones now commonplace and always in the hands of your guests, why not take advantage and build a relationship with them using that phone number (traditional land line phones are supported too.) No need for anybody to fill out a form to join the program – and you staff doesn’t have to enter any data into the POS. Everything is automatic. Your guest simply sends a text message to join – and the system will track that unique phone number going forward. Market to your existing customers on-demand via text, passbook or email.  Attract new customers easily with your latest offers through social media, your website or traditional printed advertising.
