A customer leaves with a piece you are proud of, shows it to everyone they know, and you do not see them again until the following year. In between, nothing. Their card, on the other hand, stays in their phone, moves forward at every session and gives you a way to get back in touch. For the studio, it is loyalty software cut out for widely spaced visits and high spend.
Free, unlimited customers, no bank card. Ready in 15 minutes.
You create your card online and put the poster with its QR code on the counter. The customer scans it once with their camera: the card lands in Apple Wallet or Google Wallet, with no app to install. On each visit, you scan their card (or your till does it): stamps or points add up, and the reward unlocks on its own.
For a tattoo artist, points mode fits better: a flash and a back piece cannot be worth the same stamp. You set how many points a euro taken is worth, and the Plus plan lets you set up to three tiers in the cycle: a free print at the first, a discount on the next session at the second, a flash at the third. The long project moves forward, and the customer sees it moving.
That is where it is most useful: it does not end up at the bottom of a bag, it waits in Apple Wallet or Google Wallet with your colours and the studio's name. And the Pro plan's win-back of inactive customers writes to anyone who has not been in within the interval you set, six months for example, when you open your dates.
Digikart does not run referrals for you. What works: the Plus plan's welcome bonus, so the referred friend's card starts with points already earned, and you announce it in the studio, “tell them I sent you”. For the referrer, a gesture at their next session. For a referred friend who is a minor, the rule does not change: written consent from a holder of parental authority or the guardian, kept for three years.
The prior information is handed over in person: the French order (arrêté) of 3 December 2008 requires it to be displayed in the studio and given to the customer, aftercare precautions included. The card is for what comes next. A month later, you send a notification to all your customers (from the Plus plan, no billed SMS): the touch-up is scheduled. Health data has no place in a loyalty tool.
The basic loyalty card is free, with no cap on customers and no commitment. The Pro plan, all inclusive at €49 per month, can be taken whenever you want.
