Increase your restaurant’s visibility and stay connected with customers through a simple, effective rewards system designed for Santa Cruz. Our platform helps you reach locals, visitors, and the UCSC student community in a way that feels natural and easy to manage.
Getting started is straightforward. Once your account is set up, you simply add your weekly specials to the system and display your custom QR code materials throughout your restaurant. Place them on tables, counters, windows, or at your host stand—wherever your customers will see them.
When customers scan your QR code, they can quickly sign up to receive your specials by text. From there, our system automatically sends out two targeted messages each week, featuring the promotions you choose. It’s a consistent, hands-off way to stay top of mind and drive repeat visits.
The system also helps you build your online reputation. Customers who sign up will receive an automated request to leave a Google review the following day, making it easier to generate steady, authentic feedback without extra effort from your team.
In addition to customer engagement tools, your package includes access to our Social Planner. This built-in tool allows you to create and schedule unlimited posts across your social media platforms from one place. It’s a powerful feature that typically costs $99 per month, included at no additional charge.
You’ll also have access to our Unified Messaging system, which brings together conversations from Facebook Messenger, Instagram, and your Google Business Profile into a single, easy-to-use inbox. This ensures you never miss a message and can respond quickly from one central location.
A complete system to promote your restaurant, drive repeat visits, and strengthen your online presence with simple, easy-to-use tools and automation.
Everything in the Pro Package, plus an AI assistant that answers customer questions, shares your specials, and helps guide guests toward reservations or visits at any time.
A simple way to stay connected with your customers by sharing updates, specials, and announcements through scheduled email campaigns that keep your restaurant top of mind.
We’ve designed this system to be simple, effective, and built for real restaurant owners. From setup to daily use, everything is streamlined so you can focus on running your business while the platform handles your promotions, messaging, and customer engagement.
If you’re wondering how it fits into your workflow or what kind of results to expect, you’re in the right place.
Santa Cruz Rewards keeps your restaurant in front of customers on a consistent basis.
