The launch of AppCard’s integrated personalized marketing and customer retention platform with Shopify’s iPad POS is taking off with healthy adoption.
AppCard, a leading personalized marketing and customer retention platform, has partnered with Shopify Inc. (”Shopify”), a leading cloud-based multichannel commerce platform, to offer Shopify Point of Sale (Shopify POS) merchants with an easy to use integrated customer loyalty and real-time analytics platform. Since the early July launch, adoption of AppCard for Shopify has been rapidly growing with dozens of merchants launching their respective programs. AppCard was featured by Shopifyas part of its handful of integration partners for their Embedded Apps for Shopify POS.
We’re excited to be working with AppCard on their new embedded app, to offer Shopify POS merchants the ability to build loyalty programs,
Buda Juice®, a Dallas-based, eight-location, juice bar merchant was among the first adopters of the AppCard for Shopify integrated solution. Buda Juice®’s rapid growth urged them to find a way to capture shopper data to both reward loyal shoppers and extract insights. AppCard’s unique tools empower Buda Juice® to communicate with and market to their shoppers with personalized, relevant offers that derive from item level purchase data and their shoppers’ preferences, ensuring repeat purchases.
“The AppCard for Shopify Loyalty Program has been a great addition. It has helped us to optimize our data capture with transactions and is increasing the customer following at Buda Juice®. It is simple to teach to new ambassadors and is an easy concept to explain to our customers,” says Jonathon Aranda, a Buda Juice® Area Manager.
As a cloud-based service company, AppCard’s offer creation tools turn data into actionable marketing. Whether through the merchant’s on-line account, account manager or fully automated triggers, AppCard instills loyalty and entices behaviors that impact shoppers’ frequency, recency and overall monetary spend. Through the AppCard platform, BudaJuice®’s VP of marketing and data analytics has gained access to marketing and spend data that allow her to truly know her shoppers’ likes and wants.
“We are excited to use the insights gained from working with AppCard for Shopify to craft innovative and fun targeted ways to engage and reward our customers and make sure their BudaJuice® experience is unforgettable,” says Karina Farquharson, VP of marketing and data analytics for Buda Juice®.
AppCard for Shopify is not just easy and fun, but it works! Within 3 months of the program’s inception, Buda Juice® has seen a very strong adoption, with more than 40% of its transactions being loyalty transactions. On average, AppCard shoppers purchase 13% more items per transaction and spend 41% more than the non-loyalty shoppers.
“We’re excited to be working with AppCard on their new embedded app, to offer Shopify POS merchants the ability to build loyalty programs,” said Guy Poirier, Head of Retail at Shopify. “We’re always looking for new tools and features that will help our merchants grow their businesses, and the new app will allow them to reward frequent shoppers, turning them into loyal customers.”
“We are excited about the new integrated solution and this partnership” said Yair Goldfinger, AppCard’s Co-Founder and CEO “The AppCard for Shopify combination provides Shopify’s brick and mortar merchants with a complete and seamless way to build a true relationship with their shoppers, enhance their customer experience, and optimize revenues.”
