Your café, not a generic app
Your colours, logo and reward stay front and centre on a card customers can save to their phone.

- Your café on their phone
- Stamps added with a team phone
- A clearer view of repeat visits
Your brand. Their loyalty card.
Paper cards cannot show who comes back.
The morning rush tells you how busy you are. Loytap helps you see who comes back: the regulars building up stamps, the rewards they redeem and the familiar faces you haven’t seen for a while.
Progress they can follow
Each stamp moves customers towards the reward you chose. They can see what they have earned and how many visits remain.
Know who is coming back
See visits and reward progress, spot customers going quiet and send a relevant update when there is a reason.
Keep the reward as simple as the order.
Already have a paper-card offer your regulars love? Keep the familiar reward, with progress they can check on their phone. Decide which drinks and extras are included.

01
What earns a stamp
An eligible coffee, stamped at the counter.
02
What they work towards
A coffee on the house when the card is full.
Example only. You choose the stamp target, eligibility and reward before launch.
Your loyalty dashboard
Look past the morning queue.
A busy counter is a good sign. Your dashboard shows the loyalty activity behind it: when stamps are added, who is returning and which rewards are redeemed.

Can I keep the reward we already offer?
You choose the eligible purchase, stamp target and reward. We can help translate a simple paper stamp-card offer into a digital card, with clear terms for customers and staff.
Can it work alongside our existing till?
Yes. You keep taking payment as usual. Your team uses a supported phone to add loyalty stamps, so you do not need to replace the till or buy a dedicated scanner.
Can the card look like my café?
Yes. The customer-facing card can use your café’s name, logo, colours and chosen reward.
What can I see after customers start using it?
See stamps, members and rewards over 7 or 30 days, plus visit patterns, reward progress and details customers choose to share in their profiles.
Can I message customers?
Yes. You can use customer context or a relevant group to send reward reminders, café news or an event invitation. Marketing messages should only go to customers with the appropriate permission.
Are digital loyalty cards UK GDPR compliant?
A digital loyalty programme can be operated in line with UK GDPR, but software alone does not make a business compliant. The café needs a lawful basis, clear privacy information, appropriate security and valid consent where electronic marketing rules require it.
