They are strangers to you
Someone who came twice a week for a year is, on your side of the counter, exactly the same as a stranger. You have no name and no way to say anything to them.
Kartaak puts your business in the wallet that came with their phone, next to their bank card. Nothing to download, nothing to explain. From there you can reach every one of them on their lock screen, for nothing.
Free · Works on iPhone and Android · Ready in an afternoon

Kartaak is not built for one trade. It is built for the shape of business where the same faces return, and where remembering them is worth money.
Nothing dramatic happens. Nobody complains. They just stop coming, and you never find out why or when.
Someone who came twice a week for a year is, on your side of the counter, exactly the same as a stranger. You have no name and no way to say anything to them.
The people who like your place are somewhere nearby right now, and you have no way to tell them the pastries are fresh.
How many new faces last month? How many came back? What did the giveaways cost you against what they brought in? Nobody with a paper card can answer that.
No hardware, no integration with your till, and nothing for your staff to learn beyond pointing a phone at a code.
Your colours, your logo, your wording. Choose how many stamps fill a card and what a full one earns.
We give you a QR for the counter. A customer scans it, gives their name and number, and saves the card to their phone. No app, no account, no password.
Your cashier opens the scanner, points it at the customer’s card, and taps once. Every scan is recorded against whoever took it.
The stamps get them to save it. Everything below is what you can do once they have. All of it is free except messaging, which is marked.
Write once and it appears on every customer’s phone: a quiet afternoon, a new dish, an apology. No cost per message, because it travels on the card they already hold. Part of Starter.
Every person who saves a card becomes a record: when they first came, when they were last in, how often, and what they have taken. You never have to ask anyone to fill in a form.
Each card carries a share link. You only pay out when the friend actually buys something, so you are never giving rewards away for names on a list.
Set the odds and the prize yourself. The scanner announces it at the counter, in front of whoever is queueing, which is the entire point.
How many came back, how many visits each, and what the rewards cost against them. Plain numbers, and we tell you plainly what they do not prove.
Every scan carries the name of whoever took it. Anything odd, like one card scanned over and over or scans at three in the morning, is flagged for you to judge.
Cairo hours, Arabic on the card, and a counter where the wifi drops out.
Apps your customer installs. It saves to the wallet already on their phone, iPhone or Android.
Charged per message, however many you send. Messaging is part of Starter, and it travels on the card rather than down an SMS gateway you pay by the message.
Languages on the card. English and Arabic, with the numbers written the way people here read them.
The free plan is not a trial. It has no end date and needs no card, and a one-shop coffee place can run on it forever. Pay when you want your own artwork on the stamps, your name alone on the card, or to write to your customers.
Set yours up this afternoon and hand out the first one tomorrow morning.
