Stamp Cards in POS – Earn and Redeem
Stamp cards integrate directly in the POS via the loyalty sidebar in the checkout view. Staff handle both stamps and reward redemption there — without going to any other view.
Where do staff find stamp cards?
- Open an order in the POS.
- Add the guest (via phone number / name).
- Open the checkout (click "Pay").
- The right column shows the loyalty sidebar:
- Loyalty tier (if a member)
- Point balance
- Active stamp cards with stamp progress
- Rewards ready to redeem
What the sidebar looks like:

Flow 1: Earn a stamp
- The order is ready to be paid (all items added).
- Staff sees stamp cards with progress (e.g. 7/10 stamps).
- Staff clicks "Give stamp".
- The system validates that the order meets the rule:
- "Per paid order" → always OK
- "Per category" → order must contain an item from the correct category
- "Per menu item" → order must contain the specific item
- "Per SEK threshold" → order must reach the threshold
- If OK: The stamp is registered (1 stamp per order, or more for per-item rule).
- The stamp counter on the card goes up.
- If the target is reached:
- The reward is marked as ready.
- Notifies staff: "🎉 Reward ready: Pizza Club"
- If not OK: Shows toast "The order does not meet the rule: ...".
Flow 2: Redeem reward
When a reward is ready, "✓ REWARD READY" is shown on the stamp card in the sidebar.
- Staff clicks "Redeem reward".
- The system:
- Logs the redemption.
- Applies the reward on the order:
- If free item: add the item with 100 % discount.
- If discount %: apply discount on entire order or specific item.
- The loyalty sidebar updates immediately — the reward disappears, the stamp counter resets (or continues if more rewards are ready).
- The order's subtotal adjusts automatically.
Flow 3: Manual adjustment (admin)
If staff makes a mistake (gives wrong stamp, gives stamp to wrong guest):
- Go to Admin → Marketing → Loyalty → Stamp Cards → [stamp card].
- Find the member via the search field.
- Adjust the stamp count manually.
- The adjustment is logged with a reason.
Troubleshooting:
| Problem | Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| "Give stamp" is greyed out | Order does not meet the rule | Check which rule the stamp card has |
| Reward not shown despite threshold | Cache error or member linked late | Refresh page / re-link the guest |
| Duplicate stamps on same order | Staff clicked multiple times | The system prevents double-stamping |
| Guest says they have stamps from paper card | Migration from old system | Admin adjusts manually |
Permissions:
To give a stamp and redeem a reward, the right POS permission is required. Junior staff without permission see the buttons but cannot click.
Receipt:
When a reward is redeemed, the row is shown on the receipt:
1 × Free pizza (Stamp card reward) 0.00 kr
Tips for staff:
- Be proactive: Inform the guest "You need 2 more stamps for a free pizza!" — it encourages return visits.
- On hesitation: Check the loyalty sidebar before summarizing the order — the guest should not have to remind you.
- Put up posters: Lunch pass posters at the POS help market the program.
