CARD TYPE · MEMBERSHIP CARD

The digital membership card: the member ID in the wallet.

A free customer club, an annual VIP membership or a season pass: the membership card shows status, term and member number in the wallet. At the counter, your team sees on scan which perks apply.

How it works

How the Membership card works.

1

Create the membership

Set name, term (month, year, season or unlimited), price and perks. Optionally with limited spots, for founding members for example.

2

Hand out the card

Your guest adds the card to their wallet via QR code. Your team assigns the membership at the counter, for paid plans after payment at your place.

3

Status in the wallet

The card shows the membership, how long it is valid and the member number.

4

Perks at the counter

On scan your team sees the discount and the perks. You grant the discount in your till; tapja does not touch it.

5

Pause, renew, cancel

A pause moves the end date. tapja can renew free clubs automatically; paid ones you renew at the counter.

Benefits

Why the Membership card works.

  1. Status at a glance

    Member or not, valid until when: it is on the card and shows up on scan, no list at the counter.

  2. Perks that actually apply

    Discount, birthday gift, exclusive offers or a perk of your own like “free cloakroom”. If several discounts meet, the highest applies, never the sum.

  3. Your till stays your till

    Selling and billing happen at your place. tapja keeps the membership and collects no money.

Decision guide

Which card type fits your business?

All five run in the wallet with the same reliability. The choice depends on your receipt, how often guests come back, and whether you want to reward, sell upfront or manage members.

  • Stamp card

    Simple, predictable, ideal with a consistent receipt. “Collect 10, get 1 free”, everyone gets it.

  • Points card

    Flexible, scalable, fair with varying receipt sizes. Those who spend more get more and choose from several rewards.

  • Benefits card

    No collecting, immediate effect. Your benefits sit in the wallet, each with its own run time and its own per-guest limit.

  • Package card

    Sold upfront, redeemed one by one. The 10-visit card in the wallet, paid at your counter.

  • Membership card

    Status instead of collecting. Members with a term, a member number and fixed perks.

Common questions about the Membership card.

Question not listed?
Write to us, a person will answer.

Does the membership card count visits or check-ins?
No, it collects nothing. It shows status, term and perks. If you want to count visits, one point per check-in for example, add the points card as a second program. Several programs at once are available from the Favourite Spot plan; the membership card itself is available from Home Base.
Can I collect membership fees through tapja?
No. tapja collects no money. You sell and renew paid memberships at the counter or from your own system; only free clubs can be renewed by tapja automatically.
Do my customers need an app?
No. The card lives right in Apple or Google Wallet. Both are already on the phone. No download, no login for your customers.
How does the card get onto the phone?
Via the QR code on the counter stand: scan once, "Add to Wallet," done. The card is on the phone in seconds.
Is it GDPR-compliant?
Yes, GDPR by design: data minimisation, servers in the EU and a separate marketing consent. From your guests you need a name and an email, nothing more.
