Give every guest a reason to come back.

COMBO is gamified loyalty for hospitality. Points on every spend, games at the table and offers that land at the right moment, all in your brand.

Built for restaurants, cafes, bars and QSR chains.

A neighbourhood cafe at dusk, warm light spilling onto the street and glowing lanterns floating above it
Your venue, your colours, your menu in the app.

Loyalty that plays like a game.

Three loops run on their own once you set them up, and each one ends with a guest walking back through your door.

One guest’s month, on the high-score board.

Every bill, game and offer adds to the same score. Scroll through Aisha’s first thirty days at one burger bar.

  • Earn. Points on every bill, tiers that earn faster and a rewards menu priced from your own dishes.
  • Play. A game at every table, a daily spin and challenges that pay out in prizes.
  • Return. Offers triggered by what each guest does, from a birthday to a month away.

Your own rewards app, in your brand.

Guests earn on every bill and spend points on dishes from your menu. Higher tiers earn faster, so regulars have a reason to pick you again.

  • Points on every bill
  • Tiers with faster earning and perks
  • Rewards priced from your menu
  • Opens in the browser, no download
Example data

Games at the table. Prizes they come back for.

Guests scan the table QR and play a short game in your colours while the order cooks. The score sets the prize, and the prize is redeemed on the next visit.

  • Scan the table QR and play
  • Your dishes and mascot in the game
  • The server decides every prize
  • Daily spin, quiz and photo contests
Example game

Quests that pull the next visit forward.

A return-visit quest pays a voucher at every step, and each step can ask for a slightly bigger bill. Challenges and streaks keep members opening the app between visits.

  • Five-step return-visit quest
  • A minimum spend on each step
  • Visit-every-venue trail for groups
  • Daily, weekly and monthly challenges
Example data

The right offer, the moment it matters.

COMBO watches what each member does and reacts on its own. A guest who has been away for a month hears from you before they forget you.

  • We-miss-you after 30 days away
  • Birthday treat, once a year
  • Reminder before a voucher expires
  • Welcome and first-reward moments
Example data

Deals for the members who need them.

Publish a deal or a daily special, pick an audience, see exactly how many members are in it, and tell them in one go.

  • Everyone, active, new or by home venue
  • The count before you send
  • In-app inbox, with an optional push
  • Daily specials and member perks
Example data

Redeem at the counter in seconds.

Staff scan the member's code on any phone or tablet, type the bill, and the points land. Reward codes burn on the first scan, so a screenshot is worth nothing.

  • A scanner on any phone or tablet
  • Member code refreshes every 60 seconds
  • Single-use reward codes
  • One payout per bill, even on a retry
Example data

See who comes back, venue by venue.

One dashboard for members, activity, spend and what your rewards really cost you, for one cafe or the whole group.

  • Members and active members
  • Spend by venue, any date range
  • Where members sit in the quest
  • Points owed, at food cost
Example data

Your guests. Your list. Your rules.

Reviews, by the rules

Every guest gets the same invite to rate their visit, good night or bad. No prize ever depends on a review.

Your list stays yours

Members live in your own database, and can sync to the CRM you already use.

Opt-in on every email

Only members who said yes get marketing email, and every one has a way out.

Built with you

Thinkiyo sets up your app, your game and your rewards, and keeps tuning them with you.

What is COMBO?

COMBO is gamified loyalty for restaurants, cafes, bars and QSR chains. Guests earn points on every bill, play games for prizes, and get offers at the right moment, all in your brand.

Do guests need to download an app?

No. The rewards app opens in the phone's browser from a QR code, and guests sign in with their email.

How do points get onto a member's account?

Staff scan the member's code and type the bill, or the guest uploads a photo of the receipt for approval. A direct link to your till is planned, not live yet.

How do you stop people gaming the rewards?

The server picks every game prize. Reward codes work once, the member code changes every 60 seconds, and the same receipt cannot be claimed twice.

How does COMBO bring lapsed guests back?

COMBO tracks each member's last visit. Thirty days after it, a we-miss-you message goes out by email to members who opted in, and to their app inbox.

Can it work across several venues?

Yes. Points, rewards and the member list are shared across the group, and each venue gets its own scanner, offers and numbers on the dashboard.

Tonight's guest. Next week's regular.

Send your menu and logo, and we will mock up your rewards app and your game.
