You can now enroll / link customers to earn rewards at your location. Continue to the section below to learn how customers earn points at the register.
Earn Points
As customers visit and make purchases, link their ShopKeep transactions to their phone numbers to allow rewards points to accumulate. Reward points equal the number of whole dollars spent (not counting taxes and tips) and points always round down, so if a customer spends $25.76, they will receive 25 points.
In ShopKeep, add items to a sale, select a tender, and complete the transaction as usual.

With Loyalty enabled, a screen appears where the customer will enter their phone number and tap 'Earn Points' to earn points for that transaction.
If the customer is on your Customer List, you can tag them to the sale at any time during checkout before the transaction is tendered. A customer will not have to re-enter their phone number if they already provided it and will skip this screen if they previously earned points.
If an existing customer does not have a phone number and has not been tagged to the sale, entering a phone number here will create a new customer in ShopKeep. Duplicate customer records cannot be merged later.
When customers inquire if they have earned enough points for a reward, use the ShopKeep Register app to view their current points total and any earned rewards.
In ShopKeep, tap 'Select Customer' (iOS) or the customer icon (Android) and search for the customer's phone number.
Some merchants using the iOS ShopKeep Register app will see the ‘Select Customer’ button on the right side of the screen. We are slowly rolling out the changes below to all merchants.
Once customers have earned enough points for a reward, they can redeem those points at the register to receive that reward. The specific steps to redeem points will vary based on whether you use the ShopKeep Register app on an iOS or Android device.
On iOS
For the ShopKeep Register on iOS, follow the steps below to redeem a customer’s earned loyalty points at the register for a reward.

Half Star | Customer has earned points, but not enough for a reward. Empty Star | Customer currently has no points. No Star | Customer has not yet signed up for loyalty.
