Rinkler for businesses

Give customers a referral offer they can share.

Rinkler is referral and loyalty software for local businesses. Choose the discount and store credit. Customers share a personal link, and your staff confirms the voucher when the friend visits.

From counter card to reward

One referral, three visible steps.

The friend receives the offer first. The referring customer receives store credit only after your staff confirms the visit.

  1. A customer joins

    They scan your counter card, sign in with Google or email, and join your offer to receive a personal referral link.

  2. Their friend claims

    The link opens your fixed-dollar offer and issues the friend a voucher for an in-store visit.

  3. Your staff confirms

    Your staff confirms the voucher at checkout, then Rinkler adds store credit to the referring customer's wallet for your business.

Before you create an account

What do I set up?

After creating an account, you choose the friend's discount, the referring customer's store credit, and optional punch-card rules.

Do customers need an app?

No. Customers join, claim vouchers, and view business-specific store credit in their browser.

Do I need new hardware?

No. Your staff can open the register view in a browser on an existing phone, tablet, or computer.

Bring in a friend. Give regulars a reason to return.
