Overview
The Punch Card plugin helps you drive repeat business by letting users collect virtual punches toward a reward. Once a user reaches the total number of punches, they can claim a reward set by the business. This plugin supports both user and business views and includes QR scanning, manual punch entry, and full customization.
How users earn and redeem rewards
Each time a user completes a qualifying action, the store can apply a punch.
After reaching the total number of punches, a reward is marked as available.
Users can claim the reward immediately or save it for later.
Store staff can view reward redemptions from the merchant interface.
