Cafés & bakeries
For a coffee habit, you might set a buy-eight-get-one reward. For a bakery with varied basket sizes, points based on eligible spend can make more sense. You choose the threshold and fund the reward.

A loyalty programme that fits the way you sell.
A coffee stamp, salon return visit, retail points balance or restaurant reward starts with the same simple idea: customers join once, staff confirm a purchase, and progress stays on a Wallet pass.
The guides below are practical starting points. You set your own earning rule and reward, and your team confirms purchases through FiveStar's checkout screen.

Each guide shows a different counter workflow, a reward to consider and the plan choices that matter. No guide assumes automatic POS integration.
Salons & barbers
Choose a reward that fits your services: a visit-based stamp after a set number of cuts, or points based on eligible spend across different treatments. Staff confirm the completed visit; booking an appointment alone does not earn a reward.
Explore the salons guideRetail shops
For a shop selling products at different prices, spend points often make the value of each eligible purchase easier to explain than a flat visit stamp. Set the earning rule and reward with your own margins in mind.

A takeaway might use visit stamps for a simple repeat-order reward. A restaurant with different table spends might prefer points based on eligible spend. Either way, reward progress follows a confirmed sale rather than a menu view or reservation.

Three boundaries worth knowing before you choose.
Real purchases count
A scan or signup does not create points. An approved staff device confirms each eligible sale before stamps or points are awarded.
Rewards are yours
You choose the reward and fund it. The screenshots show real product screens with example thresholds and amounts.
Choice remains with customers
