Loyalty programme for car washes
Digital Loyalty Cards for Car Washes
Your customers wash their car every two to four weeks. Make sure they always come to you. TapStamp gives your car wash a digital stamp card. Customers tap after every wash and earn a free valet.
Why paper loyalty cards don't work for car washes
Sound familiar? These are the problems TapStamp solves.
Customers go to whoever is closest
Car washes compete on convenience. Without loyalty, customers will use whichever one they drive past first.
Paper cards get left in the car
Paper loyalty cards sit in the glovebox and are forgotten. Customers never have them when they arrive.
No way to drive off-peak visits
Weekends are packed but weekdays are quiet. You need a way to encourage midweek washes.
No upsell opportunities
You have no way to tell existing customers about premium valets, new services, or seasonal offers.
How TapStamp works for car washes
Three steps. No complicated setup. Go live the same day.
Customer taps the NFC pod
After they get a car wash, the customer holds their phone to your countertop NFC pod. One tap, done.
Stamp collected instantly
A digital stamp is added to their card in the TapStamp app. They can see their progress towards the reward at any time.
Reward unlocked
