One loyalty programme, every place your customers shop

Bigplus loyalty runs as a single balance across your till and your online store, not two disconnected point systems that never sync.

The problem with most loyalty programmes

Two point systems that don't talk to each other

Most retail loyalty falls apart the moment a customer shops in more than one place. The till has its own points balance. The online store has another, usually bolted on through a separate app that was never built to talk to the POS. A customer who shops in both ends up with two accounts, two balances, and no way to combine them.

Bigplus treats loyalty as one balance, not two. A purchase in store adds points the same way a purchase through the WooCommerce or Shopify storefront does, and both update the same customer record in real time. Staff at the till can see it. The customer sees it. There's nothing to reconcile.

A loyalty programme that only works in one channel is really two loyalty programmes, and customers notice the difference.

Under the hood

How it works in Bigplus

Points that follow the customer

Every purchase, in store or online, adds to one loyalty balance instead of two separate programmes that never talk to each other.

Redeem anywhere, instantly

A customer can earn points on a Saturday in store and spend them on the website that night. Balances sync as soon as the till is back online.

Tiers and birthday rewards, automatically

Set tiered thresholds and birthday perks once, and Bigplus applies them at checkout without a cashier having to remember who qualifies.

One profile, not three spreadsheets

Loyalty sits on top of the same customer profile that already tracks purchase history, so promotions can target real buying patterns instead of guesswork.

01
Step one

A sale happens, anywhere

A customer buys something, whether that's at the till or through the online shop.

02
Step two

Bigplus calculates the reward

Points are worked out automatically from the sale total and whatever tier rules apply, with no manual entry required.

03
Step three

Every channel sees the same balance

Real-time sync between the till and WooCommerce or Shopify means there's never two numbers to reconcile.

04
Step four

Redeemed wherever it's earned

The customer spends the balance at any till or at online checkout. It's the same number either way.

No separate loyalty app to manage

Loyalty lives inside the same POS and back office Bigplus retailers already use for stock and sales. There's no second login, no separate dashboard, and no export and import between systems just to keep points accurate.

For a retailer weighing up a loyalty app on top of their existing POS, the real question isn't whether it can calculate points. It's whether the balance it shows a customer at the till matches the one they saw online an hour earlier. Bigplus keeps that number the same everywhere, because it was never two systems to begin with.
