To utilize the Gift Card or Loyalty Card programs, your cards should be encrypted in one of the formats that JPOS touchPOS software will recognize. Cards are available thru JPOS in monochrome or in full color. We can print as well as encode the magnetic stripe on the card.

To use the Loyalty Program: You need to set the “Customer Loyalty Rate” in the touchPOS program, and attribute “Allow Loyalty Discount” to the appropriate items. To Set The “Customer Loyalty Rate”

Set the Customer Loyalty Rate:

• Sign on to either JPOS BackOffice or JPOS touchPOS as the Administrator (user #1)
• Click on Setup (menu at the top of the screen)
• Click on Program Settings
• Under the Gift, Loyalty Tab, set the desired Customer Loyalty Rate in the Customer Loyalty Credit Rate field. (10.00 = 10%, 25.00 = 25%, 1.50 = 1.5% etc.)
• Click OK

To set the Loyalty Discount attribute for a single item:

• Edit an item
• In the Item Properties dialog box, place a checkmark in the Allow Loyalty Discount checkbox
• Repeat for any additional items.

To set the Loyalty Discount attribute for many items at once:
(Example: Set all sizes of coffee-to-go as Loyalty Eligible)

• Sign on to BackOffice
• Click Items
• Click Change Item Status
• Click Loyalty
• A prompt will appear asking “Are Items Loyalty Program Eligible?”
• Click Yes
• The Search Database dialog box will appear
• For this example, click on Department
• Scroll to the department that your coffee-to-go is in
• Click Search
• Now all items in the department you selected will appear
• Select each of the coffee-to-go sizes in the list
• Click OK
• You are finished. All of the coffee to go items are now eligible for the Loyalty program.

There is only 1 loyalty rate available. Every item that is Loyalty eligible earns Loyalty credit at the same rate. You cannot set a different Loyalty rate for different items. There are other discounting methods you can use if you need to.
