How Perk works
From new member to points credited, in a few seconds
It starts with an enrollment
Everything begins when a customer joins your loyalty program for the first time. How they join doesn't matter:
- At the register, with a phone number or email
- By texting your loyalty keyword
- Through your Square Online store
Square tells Perk about the new member right away.
Perk adds the points
Perk looks up the new member's account and credits your welcome points. The whole thing takes a few seconds. Perk goes through Square's official Loyalty API, so the points look exactly like a manual adjustment. Minus the manual part.
What your customer sees
More points, sooner. The bonus lands in their account immediately, and Square's usual enrollment texts go out untouched. From the customer's side, your loyalty program is simply more generous than the one down the street.
What you see
Your dashboard keeps a running list of every member Perk has welcomed and when. In Square, the points show up in each customer's loyalty history as an adjustment, so your records stay clean.
What Perk doesn't touch
Your earning rules, reward tiers, and expiration settings. Perk adds the one-time welcome bonus and nothing else.
Next: Managing your perk
Change the amount, pause it, or disconnect Square. None of it permanent.
