MERCHANT GUIDE
Get your loyalty program running
From creating your account to a printed QR code sitting on your counter — about five minutes, no hardware, and no tech skills required.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Have three things handy: an email address (this becomes your login), a card for your subscription, and a way to print one page — your home printer is fine, or any print shop.
01
Create your account
Go to ventzon.com and choose Get started. Enter your email and pick a password — that's how you'll sign in from now on.
02
Name your shop
Type your business name, for example “Sunrise Bakery.” This is the name customers see when they check in, so use the one on your sign.
03
Choose a plan and subscribe
Pick monthly ($25/month) or yearly ($240/year — two months free) and enter your card. On top of the flat fee, you pay just $0.85 each time a customer actually earns a reward. You pay more only when it's working.
04
Set up your reward
In your dashboard, decide what customers earn and how: your offer (“Free coffee,” “10% off”), whether they earn it by visits or points, and your logo and store address. Coffee shops usually set 8–10 visits per reward; salons, 3–5.
05
Print your QR code
In the dashboard, open Print card (or Download QR). A normal sheet of paper works, or bring the file to a print shop for something sturdier to stand on the counter.
06
Place it at your register
Set the QR where customers pay. To join, they scan it with their phone camera and enter their phone or email — nothing to download to get started. Every visit after that, they scan again and earn their stamp. You're live.
Optional: customers who want reminders can download the free Ventzon app to get nudged when they're close to a reward and see all their cards in one place. It's never required to join or earn — the QR works on its own.
WHAT YOUR CUSTOMERS EXPERIENCE
Three taps, no download
Each visit adds a stamp (or points). When they reach your goal, the screen shows their reward to display at the register. Simple enough that nobody needs help using it.
RUNNING IT DAY TO DAY
Your dashboard shows check-ins, your best customers, busiest days, and who's drifting away. You can email your regulars, add a stamp by hand at the counter, and manage billing any time.
