What’s a Paid Loyalty Program?

A paid loyalty program gives exclusive and immediate benefits to your best customers in exchange for a recurring monthly or annual payment. It’s like having your own version of Amazon Prime that just keeps putting money in your bank account.

On the other hand, free loyalty programs – like punch cards and points systems – require transactions first and provide benefits later. This means delayed gratification – not something consumers are looking for in today’s maketplace.

Put simply, the future belongs to restaurants and retailers that provide instant gratification and do it all the time, which is exactly what you can do with your own paid loyalty program from 5-Star 365.

Your Customers Want to Be VIP… And They’re Willing to Pay for It

Loyal customers are good. But TOP-TIER customers – the kind who PAY to be a member of your loyalty program – are even better!

“Paid membership means you’ve secured a place in the customer’s heart. Membership – even for a small fee – forms a sense of exclusivity and transforms the customer experience in a way that traditional (free) loyalty programs simply cannot.” – Retail Guru Doug Stephens

According to McKinsey & Company’s 2020 survey…

  • 94% of paid loyalty members spend money at that business at least once per month.

  • 88% of customers who belong to a paid loyalty program will choose that business over a competitor offering a lower price.

  • 70% of customers not in a paid loyalty program would join one if their favorite business offered one and the benefits were valuable.

Ultimately, having a paid loyalty program is the best way to maximize the value of your business.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know this will work for my business?

We’ve got a cool calculator you can use to figure out exactly how a paid membership program could impact your bottom line. It can help you determine exactly how much you should charge and how much you can afford to give away. And it’s part of what we use to make sure our paid membership programs are a guaranteed success.

Why should I do this now?

Here’s the reality: The pandemic is still keeping some people at home and out of your restaurant, staffing shortages are no joke, food costs continue to rise, minimum wage is going up, and you’re too busy running and reacting to everything.

A paid membership club puts recurring monthly revenue in your pocket before you ever open the doors. It creates an even stronger connection with your best customers, and it provides a way for new customers to ascend to loyal customers. Bottomline, this system will increase customer frequency, sales, and lifetime customer value.

What if I already have a free loyalty program?

That’s great! Our paid program will be able to easily work alongside your existing loyalty program. And, we can even combine your existing loyalty program with your paid program, so ALL your customers can be using your mobile app.

What if I already have a paid loyalty program?

That’s great, too! We can simply transfer your program to our platform so you can experience all the benefits.

Are paid memberships just a fad?

The concept of paid memberships has been around for a long time. Before the internet, publishers of books, magazines and newspapers understood the value of charging customers monthly or annually. And over the past decade, as streaming services have grown, more and more people have become comfortable with paying for a membership every month.

Can my app be used by all of my customers, or is it just for paying members?

The mobile apps we build are powerful tools and can be used by all your customers, not just those paying for a VIP Membership. In fact, Matt’s mobile app is set up with VIP and “free” members. But, starting with a paid membership puts recurring monthly revenue in your pocket immediately.

What exactly is 5-Star 365?
