## Summary

Easy Loyalty moves the reward card into Apple Wallet or Google Wallet and lets fitness studios run it as a digital stamp card (one stamp per visit, a full card unlocks a reward) or as cashback (a percentage of every purchase lands on the pass instantly). No customer app; your front desk scans the pass at the counter.

## Why fitness studios switch from paper

For fitness studios, members arrive with keys and a phone, nothing else; punch cards live in gym bags and get lost. A wallet pass is always on the phone, updates itself, and every scan is recorded.

## Worked cashback example

A regular spends about $25 per visit and comes in 8 times a month. At 5% cashback:

- Earned per visit: $1.25
- Earned per year: $120
- Annual revenue the program protects: $2,400

Typical purchases: a drop-in class, a class pack, a smoothie or shaker after training.

## Example lock-screen message

**Streak week** — Hit 3 classes this week and we'll top up your cashback — see you on the mat.

## How to launch

1. Sign up and start the 14-day free trial — no credit card required.
2. Add your fitness studio name and logo, then choose stamps (e.g. 10 = a free item) or cashback (e.g. 5%).
3. Design the Apple Wallet and Google Wallet passes with the live preview.
4. Print the QR code for the counter, or share the sign-up link.
5. At checkout, your front desk scans the pass; cashback or stamps are credited instantly.
6. Optional: send lock-screen messages or enable automations (win-back, birthday, reward ready).

## FAQ

### Why do fitness studios lose so many paper reward cards?

Because members arrive with keys and a phone, nothing else; punch cards live in gym bags and get lost. A digital pass lives on the phone customers already carry, so the card is there every single time — including the visit where they'd have been one stamp away.

### What if a customer doesn't want to use a wallet app?

Every customer also gets a personal QR code on their account page. They can show that at the counter instead — it scans exactly like the wallet pass, so nobody is excluded.

### How long does switching from paper take?

Most fitness studios are live the same day: sign up, upload a logo, set a cashback rate, print the QR code for the counter. Existing paper cards can be honoured until they run out while new customers go straight to digital.

### Do my fitness studio customers need to download an app?

No. Apple Wallet and Google Wallet are already on every iPhone and Android phone. Customers open your link or scan a QR code, tap “Add”, and the pass sits next to their bank cards. Nothing to install, nothing to remember.

### Stamps or cashback — which should I choose?

Both are built in; you pick per location. A stamp card (e.g. 10 stamps = a free item) is simple and works when every visit is worth about the same. Cashback — many fitness studios start around 5% — scales with spend: when your front desk records a $25 purchase, $1.25 lands on the pass to spend next time. You can switch later without reissuing passes.
