Problem

Old-school loyalty systems fail local businesses: paper cards get lost in wallets, customers rarely download a separate app just to earn rewards, and staff forget to ask for reviews. As a result, one-time visitors never return, and businesses miss the social proof that drives new foot traffic.

Solution

TAPPI provides a digital loyalty engine that lives inside Apple and Google Wallet, eliminating the need for customers to download a separate app. Businesses deploy NFC chips or QR codes on their counters; when customers tap or scan, their loyalty card is instantly saved to their phone's wallet. The platform supports seven loyalty program types—stamp cards, points, tiers, prepaid cards, memberships, multipass packs, and coupons—all updating automatically on each visit. TAPPI also automates review collection by prompting happy customers to leave public reviews on Google or Tripadvisor while routing complaints privately to the business first. All loyalty activity, customer data, and review performance are managed through a single dashboard, giving business owners a complete view of their reputation and customer behavior without extra work for their team. The platform also includes geopush notifications, referrals, and automatic rewards triggered by visits, spend, or birthdays.

Target Audience

Primary customers are local businesses such as cafés, restaurants, bars, salons, gyms, and retail shops that want to increase customer retention, collect more online reviews, and build a loyal customer base without investing in complex or expensive loyalty software.
