Tip: If multiple customers have similar names, verify by asking for their email or member code (shown at top of their card).
What is Instant Access?
Some customers start earning rewards immediately without creating an account. When they scan the QR code, they get a unique member code (like ABC123) and can start collecting points right away.
Your Role
Treat them exactly like any other customer! The process is identical whether they have an email address or just a member code. You'll look them up, give points/stamps, and process redemptions the same way.
How to Identify Instant Access Customers
Their Card Shows a Member Code
At the top of their loyalty card, they'll see:
Your Member Code
ABC123
QR Code Works the Same
They still have a QR code you can scan - it works exactly the same as customers with email accounts.
How to Help Instant Access Customers
1 They Have Their Phone
Same as any customer:
- Ask them to show their digital card
- Scan their QR code
- Give points/stamps or process redemption
2 They Don't Have Their Phone
Two options:
-
Ask for their member code (e.g., ABC123)
Type it in the search bar -
Search by their name
If they provided a name when joining
3 They Lost Their Phone
Without an email address, there's no way to recover their account. Their points are lost. This is why we encourage customers to add their email in settings - it protects their rewards.
What you can do: They can start fresh by scanning the QR code again to get a new member code.
Common Staff Questions
Can I give them points like normal customers?
Yes! The process is 100% identical. Look them up (QR, code, or name) and give points/stamps as usual.
Can they redeem rewards?
Yes! They can redeem points, use stamps, and claim rewards exactly like any other member.
What if they can't remember their member code?
It's shown at the top of their loyalty card when they open it. If they don't have their phone and don't remember their code, try searching by their name.
Is there any difference in how I treat them?
No difference at all! Your workflow is exactly the same. The only difference is they use a member code instead of an email for identification.

Voucher States
Customer can't find their card
Ask for their email address and search for their account. If not found, help them register.
Customer says points are missing
Look up their transaction history. Check the date and amount they mention. If no transaction exists, it may not have been processed. Offer to add points now if appropriate, or refer to your manager for disputes.
Customer wants a refund/reversal
Staff typically cannot reverse transactions. Politely explain: "I'm not able to reverse transactions from here. Let me get my manager to help with that."
New customer wants to sign up
Show them the QR code on your counter display. They scan it with their phone, complete registration on their device, and can start earning immediately.
Customer forgot which card they have
Look up their account by email. Show them which cards they're enrolled in. Process the transaction on the correct card.
