Digital loyalty program FAQs
Clear answers about how Kavto works, what digital loyalty cards can do, and when they make sense for your business.
What Kavto is and how it helps
What is Kavto?
Kavto is a platform for creating digital loyalty programs in Apple Wallet and Google Wallet. You can launch stamp cards, points programs, or discounts without asking customers to download another app.
What types of businesses is Kavto for?
Kavto works best for businesses that rely on repeat visits, including barbershops, nail salons, coffee shops, restaurants, local retailers, and other businesses with returning customers.
What problem does Kavto solve?
Kavto replaces loyalty programs that never gain traction: physical cards get lost, customers avoid downloading another app, and businesses cannot tell who comes back. It removes that friction and makes repeat visits easier.
Digital loyalty cards
What is a digital loyalty card?
It is a loyalty card customers save to Apple Wallet or Google Wallet. Instead of carrying paper or plastic, they collect stamps, points, or discounts on a digital card that is easy to find and use.
How does a digital loyalty card work?
The business creates the card and shares a QR code. The customer saves it to their digital wallet and collects stamps, points, or discounts whenever they return. The experience stays quick at checkout and easy for everyone to understand.
How is a digital loyalty card different from a physical one?
Physical cards get lost and provide very little insight. A digital card stays on the customer’s phone, takes seconds to save, and is easier to use on every visit.
How can I create a digital loyalty card without building an app?
With Kavto, there is no app to build. Set up the card in your dashboard, add your branding, choose a reward, and share a QR code so customers can save it directly to their digital wallet.
Apple Wallet, Google Wallet, and day-to-day use
Do customers need to download an app?
No. Customers do not need another app or account. They scan the QR code, save the card, and they are ready to go.
Does it work with iPhone and Android?
Yes. Kavto works with Apple Wallet on iPhone and Google Wallet on Android.
How is it used at checkout?
Staff can validate the card through Kavto, while customers can quickly open it from their digital wallet. The flow is designed to keep checkout moving.
Do I need special hardware?
No. Kavto works with the devices you already have, so there is no special hardware to buy.
Plans, trials, and growth
Does Kavto offer a free trial?
Yes. Kavto offers a trial so you can see how the program fits your business before choosing a full plan.
What happens when the trial ends?
If the program works for your business, choose the plan that fits your current needs. Start simple and upgrade only when it makes sense.
Can I run more than one loyalty program?
Yes. Depending on your plan, you can run multiple programs—for example, a stamp card for regular customers and a separate discount campaign.
