Loyalty for bakeries & pastry shops

Morning rush has no time for paper

Between queues and lost cards, loyalty becomes a chore instead of an asset.

Scan in 2 seconds

Customer shows their QR, you add the visit. The card updates instantly in their Wallet.

How it works, even at rush hour

QR code at checkout

Shown near the till, it lets a customer add their card in 30 seconds without slowing the line.

Card ready to use

Added to Apple or Google Wallet, the card is scannable on the next visit, no app to open.

One stamp per visit

Bread, pastry, or cake: every purchase moves the customer closer to their reward, updated instantly.

What you get

  • Built for fast checkout flow
  • Classic stamps or points program
  • QR by the shop window
  • Push promos for quiet hours

Why loyalty matters in a bakery

A bakery is one of the busiest kinds of shop: people come often, for small purchases, and the choice is made largely out of habit and proximity. That regularity is an asset, but a fragile one: a new competitor on the way to work, a change of hours, and the habit moves.

A loyalty card gives a concrete reason to stay loyal to your bakery rather than the one next door, without changing what makes your reputation: the product and the welcome.

Stamps or points in a bakery

Stamps suit frequent purchases of similar value: “the tenth baguette” or “the tenth croissant”. They are simple for the team and immediate for the customer. Points, based on the amount, fit better if you want to account for pastry orders, birthday cakes or platters. KARD offers both, or both together.

As examples, to adapt to your margin: one stamp per visit with a free pastry or baguette on the tenth; or one point per euro with a free pastry at a point threshold you set.

Reward ideas

  • A free pastry or baguette: a high-volume product, so a controlled cost price.
  • A small free pastry to introduce your range.
  • A perk on an order (cake, platter) for customers who already order.
  • A birthday message with a small perk, sent automatically from the Pro plan.
  • A free product of the day, to clear a batch and make a small event.

A gesture that does not slow the queue

The checkout gesture is a scan of the card's QR code, or a search for the customer by name or phone. The safest way is to test it at rush hour during the free trial: if it slows the queue, you will know before committing. KARD also lets you give access to your checkout staff (up to two on Starter, five on Pro, unlimited on Business).

Launch the card in your shop

  1. 1Choose a simple rule that the customer understands by reading the sentence on the poster.
  2. 2Create the card in your bakery's look, with your logo and colours.
  3. 3Put the sign-up QR code on the counter, clearly visible, with a short sentence. A printable poster is available from KARD.
  4. 4Train the team on the gesture: scan at every visit, not only when the customer asks.
  5. 5For the first weeks, offer the card to every customer who does not have one: adoption is built at the counter.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Complicating the rule: a customer in a hurry does not read terms and conditions.
  • Putting the QR code outside the queue, where nobody sees it.
  • Rewarding too late: a reasonable threshold makes people want to continue.
  • Forgetting customers who no longer come: an automatic win-back message (Pro plan) tells them a reward is waiting.

Measure what the programme changes

The dashboard shows visits, rewards earned and inactive customers. In a bakery, visit frequency is the first indicator: a customer who came every week and no longer does is an alert.

Watch three things: how many cards are created (adoption), how often card-holders come back, and the list of customers who have not returned for several weeks. Detailed analytics are included from the Pro plan. Give it a full month before judging: a loyalty programme is measured on habits, not on one day.

What KARD costs, and what you keep

KARD starts at €29/month (Starter: 1 shop, 2 checkout staff, unlimited customers, Apple and Google Wallet). The Pro plan at €39/month adds automations (win-back messages for inactive customers, birthdays), the dashboard and analytics, unlimited push notifications and full customer history. The Business plan at €59/month covers up to 3 shops with unlimited staff.

There is no commission on your sales, no set-up fee, and a 14-day free trial with no commitment: you can create your card, add it to your own phone and test a checkout before you decide.
