Instead of handing consumers a physical paper card to have stamped or punched as part of a loyalty program, Pirq is an app that digitizes this process, making it easy for businesses to boost customer loyalty, as well as the frequency of visits.
Using Pirq's map, users are able to find offers in their local area that might be appealing to them. What's awesome about Pirq is that the punch cards won't expire and can be used at any pace. As well, Pirq doesn't require cash, credit cards or payment up front for users to take advantage of its exclusive deals.
Aside from the savings, one of the best parts of the app is that it's possible to juggle multiple punch cards from a single merchant, which clears up a ton of bulk from your wallet.
