Retailer boosts "touch-and-go" capability and goes beyond payments
Coffee Republic is adding a loyalty card scheme to its existing contactless
offering to strengthen its internet presence.
Start-up
sQuidcard
has developed the smartcard, which has a pre-paid function and allows
promotional top-ups which can be redeemed in-store and topped up over the web.
The news follows the introduction of contactless payment technology to 16
Coffee Republic outlets using Barclaycard's OnePulse terminals.
Factors driving the rollout include a decision to move away from the
loyalty-only card, and to extend the use of contactless technology, according to
Coffee Republic chairman Peter Breach. The chain also wanted to use the cards to
extend the online relationship with its customers.
The smartcard is being offered in three Coffee Republic stores in London, and
there are plans to extend the rollout across the entire network early next year.
The chain's UK operations comprise 16 company-owned stores, 53 franchised
bars and 112 concessions.
