I would like to produce a simple points based loyalty program for one of my businesses.
I would manually sign my customers up in the venue using a registration form that is based on my wordpress site (registerplus redux), at this point the swipe of the card needs to populate the registration field for 'card number', which is already available in the registration fields. The cards will already be printed with mag strips and unique id's.
Once registered, I would like the customers to gain points (that I can set) on entry to the venue and the swipe of their card. So, on entry to the venue the customer swipes the mag card, and are awarded points on swipe - as an extra feature, I think a random award at this point would also encourage customers to bring the card and swipe it - so, for example a random bonus (that is not awarded every time) could be 2X points, or a prize of our choice - this would require an output to a monitor to show the customer if they had won or not. If no prize is won at this point, then it must also show a graphic display of the points added to the card. On this output monitor, when idle, I would also like to show information of the scheme, so a page where images and text can be edited for me or the staff to show the points, prizes and other information.
It should be possible also for managers to manually add and deduct points, change point plans, bonus points etc and set limits on the number of swipes allowed per day for example, and the frequency of the bonus prizes, and the type of bonus prize (this would need to allow for photo uploads).
What do points make? - Prizes! ...There is no point in operating a loyalty program if the customer can't redeem them, so I require a section on my wordpress VIP members area where they can check point balances and redeem the points for prizes that I offer. I would need to be able to upload products and the customers be able to purchase them with the points - therefore creating an order and reduction in the points assigned to them. It may be easier to incorporate Magento or similar into this process?
At the end of this project, if the product works I would like to sell this out as a product for other operators in my [login to view URL] please bear this in mind. I am happy to work with the right developer on this ongoing if all goes well.
Thanks
