Turn first-timers into regulars.

GB Buzz Card puts a digital punch card on your counter, helps you collect more Google reviews, and puts your shop in front of 6,000 GB Buzz readers. Your customers don't download anything, and there's no tech for you to babysit.

What's in it for your shop

  • A punch card that runs itself.

    Customers tap their phone on the stand by your till and the punch lands on their card. Each tap makes a one-time code that can't be copied, so nobody punches their own card from the couch.

  • New faces, not just the same ones.

    Everyone on the card sees every shop on the card. The person who signed up at the bakery down the street finds you next.

  • More Google reviews.

    After a punch, regulars see a friendly, optional nudge to review you on Google. Done by the book, so Google stays happy.

  • A spot in GB Buzz.

    Shops on the card get featured to 6,000 local readers.

  • You pick the reward.

    Buy 9, get 1. A free cookie after 6. Whatever works for your margins.

  • Simple numbers.

    See new members, repeat visits and rewards claimed without opening a spreadsheet.

Up and running in an afternoon

  1. We set you up.

    We bring the counter stand, set your reward and show your staff how it works. About 15 minutes.

  2. Customers tap their phones.

    The punch happens on its own, so your staff have nothing new to learn.

  3. Regulars keep coming back.

    Watch the punches add up and the new faces walk in.

Founding shop spots

The first 10 shops get founding pricing, locked in for a full year. We're starting in the towns where the most locals signed up.

No pressure, no contract. We only use this to get in touch.

Fair questions

Do my customers need an app?

No. It works in any phone's web browser.

What do I need behind the counter?

Nothing. The stand does the work.

Can customers cheat?

Not easily. Every tap creates a code that only works once, so a photo or a shared link gets nobody a punch. There's also a cooldown between punches.

What if a customer's phone can't tap?

Most phones from the last few years can. For the few that can't, your staff can add the punch from a phone or tablet.

Do I get my customers' contact info?

You see first names and visit counts. Phone numbers and emails stay private. Customers trust it more that way.

What does it cost?

A flat monthly fee with the stand included. Founding shops get a locked-in rate. We'll walk you through it over coffee.

Is the review thing allowed?

Yes. Nobody gets a punch or a reward for leaving a review. The nudge only shows up after the punch, and anyone can skip it. That keeps you on the right side of Google.
