Guide

Use this guide to create the first version of your 7stamp card, choose the reward model, and prepare a simple launch path for customers.

Start with one simple reward

For the first version of your card, keep the logic obvious. A classic pattern such as “buy 9, get the 10th free” is easy for staff to explain and easy for customers to trust.

The goal of the first launch is not to model every edge case. It is to create one clean reward loop that customers can understand in seconds.

Define the customer promise

Before you publish the card, confirm three things:

  • what action earns a Stamp
  • how many Stamps unlock the reward
  • whether the reward is redeemed immediately or saved as a voucher

If those three points are clear, the program is already operational.

Keep the join flow frictionless

7stamp works best when the card is added from a QR and saved directly to Apple Wallet or Google Wallet. Avoid adding extra steps such as account creation or app installation unless you have a very strong business reason.

That is the main product advantage: customers join quickly and keep the card in the wallet they already use.

Launch with one business scenario

Do not start with every location, every campaign, and every reward type at once. Pick one business scenario:

  • coffee loyalty
  • repeat retail visits
  • salon visit rewards
  • delivery return incentives

When the first scenario is stable, you can expand the card logic or create more programs around the same operational pattern.

Review the operational path

Before going live, test the path end to end:

  1. open the join QR
  2. save the Card
  3. add a few test Stamps
  4. trigger the reward
  5. redeem it in the chosen workflow

If all five steps feel natural, your first card is ready for a real customer launch.
