Cheerfy Shop & Loyalty | Transactional segmentation

The integration between Loyalty and Shop is undoubtedly one of our key drivers of value.

Now we take the integration of both modules to the next level! 🚀

Would you like to impact a customer based on historical expenditure with your brand?
Would you like to segment your communication based on the average ticket value?
Would you like to recover clients who used to order from you but stopped doing so?
Would you like to impact a customer who, having visited you at your physical venue, has never ordered from your online shop?
Would you like to personalize your communication depending on the service the client has ordered from you: Delivery, Take Away, Dine-in?
Would you like to segment your communication based on a customer's activity status: active, asleep, lost?

If your answer is yes, this is your feature! 🎯


Cheerfy Shop | Maximum number of units per category, per order

A few weeks ago, we let you know that, in addition to setting up the minimum order based on the total value of the ticket, you could set it based on the units of certain products.

Now you can also set the maximum order based on the number of units ordered from a specific category.

In this way, you can, for example, limit the sale of certain items based on your kitchen staffing capacity or your riders' shipping capacity, among others.


Cheerfy Shop | Deelivers Integration

We have improved our integration with Deelivers for shipping your delivery orders.

We continue consolidating our European integrations portfolio: Stuart, Glovo, Closer, Acciona, Goggo, Deliveroo, and any platform that operates on Vromo.


Cheerfy Loyalty | Advanced integration with POS

We are going one step further in integrating all kinds of POS!

We have developed the ability to match entire transactions to customer profiles in a near-universal way. Magic!

You can now know precisely what each customer has consumed, securely adding the corresponding points or stamps.

Please don't hesitate to ask us if you want to know more.


We hope that these new features are helpful. We are already working on what's next!

We will be happy to get your feedback.

Your customers are running away to the office

1-min read

comer oficina 1.jpeg

Let's be honest, summer has had me a little disconnected. It has been a long time since I last wrote to you. So let me get philosophical this time... time goes by too fast.

It seems that it was yesterday when Covid forced restaurants shut, or when they reopened, but with many (or excessive) restrictions. However, now that many had adapted mainly through Delivery and Take Away services, autumn arrives with the "old normal" under his arm.

There are already many places where restrictions tend to disappear (or almost). With greater flexibility than in the past, most workers have already returned to their offices, or are about to do so. Many restaurants had already become accustomed to having a high volume of delivery orders at lunchtime and during the week. However, many workers who used to order from home are now at the office.

But... why don't we take food to the offices?

First of all, let me emphasize I don't believe the current situation is going to be identical to the pre-covid one. In fact, I firmly believe the role of delivery will be increasingly important. I think we should reflect on how to optimize said service to adapt it in the best way to the different casuistry.

Some companies like Deliveroo in England, have launched an entire division called "Delivery for Work" just to further this use case. Also in England, Pure has set up drop points in offices where workers receive their orders. In Barcelona, Only Breaks has developed specific channels for offices, separate from its usual offer at Only Foodies.

In essence, it is a use case that will give you the ability to manage large volumes of orders in an easy way.

Find here the three key factors of your B2B offer:

  1. Specialized menus for offices: the first thing to consider is your target audience. We can differentiate two large groups. The first would be formed by individual employees and the second by groups of employees.

    As for the individual employee, it would make a lot of sense to create a reduced version of your regular menu that resembles the traditional, affordable and healthier "set lunch menu". What someone orders in their free time have little or nothing to do with what they would order in their day-to-day routine at the office. As for groups of employees, it is about adapting a menu for large orders (catering type) that they can enjoy in meetings or events at the office, with, for example, boxes or packs that include food for several people.

    Having the ability to adapt your offer to each case will allow you to develop a new source of income. In addition, the fact of meeting all that demand with reduced and/or standardized versions of your menu will greatly facilitate your operation.

  2. Order cut-off time and delivery intervals: setting a cut-off time for a customer to place an order at their office, as well as setting delivery intervals for it, will allow you to optimize the preparation process. You will know in advance how many products, or how much time and resources you need to cook them, being able to organize yourself in the best way.

    You will not need a rider for each order as with the usual delivery service. You can group several orders by areas and delivery times, being able to send several orders at the same time, thus reducing the shipping cost to (almost) zero. In addition, since you will get your orders well ahead of having them delivered, you can also take the opportunity to expand your delivery areas to the areas that have more offices or that you decide to cover.

  3. Development of commercial agreements with companies: the development of the relationship with companies will be very important. Sometimes just through referrals. Others, for example, in the same way as with traditional gourmet checks. Companies can partially and automatically subsidize orders for their employees, benefiting from tax advantages.

    The employee (your customer) would enjoy a discount on their online order at Cheerfy Shop. The company would assume the cost of this discount as it usually happens when they pay part of the salary through gourmet checks or similar. Your restaurant would have created a new source of income with all the benefits previously mentioned.

    A very illustrative example is that of Honest Greens, which has reached an agreement with WeWork workspaces whereby all workers in these spaces, in Madrid and Barcelona, can order at Honest Greens enjoying different benefits and discounts.


If you are already using Cheerfy, I encourage you to reflect on how this use case can help you.

If you do not use Cheerfy but are thinking about it, we would be happy to explain operations and capabilities in further detail.

I am here to help you.

We have added the ability to set up the number of times your customers can use the vouchers, as well as the frequency of use per period of time. Example: voucher for 10 pizzas per month.

This is the first step to making subscriptions a reality. An upward trend in markets such as the United Kingdom and the United States, where international chains such as Pret a Manger or Panera Bread already offer Netflix-style coffee subscriptions. Find here some articles from Delish, Bakemag and the Financial Times.


Cheerfy Loyalty | Loyalty Card Dashboard

Monitor in real-time the number of active cards in Apple Wallet or Google Pay. Analyze the Customer Lifetime Value based on their level within the loyalty plan. And evaluate the impact of your loyalty card on the increase in the frequency of visits, and the consumption of your customers. All this with an omnichannel vision, which incorporates consumption in your physical venue, and in your online shop.


Cheerfy Shop | Facebook API

The Facebook pixel is no longer effective as of iOS 14. Therefore, we have already integrated Cheerfy Shop with the Facebook conversion API to be able to continue tracking the behaviour of your customers in your online shop.


Cheerfy Shop | New Landing Page

We include new key features on the home page of your online shop. Your customers will be intelligently redirected to the individual shop that corresponds to them depending on the address, opening hours, range area of each shop or availability of transport.

You can also redirect your customers directly via "deep links" to other marketplaces when your own shop cannot cover the order due to rider capacity or range area.

In addition, the design is fully customizable with the colours, fonts and titles, creatives and narratives of your brand.


We hope that these new features are of the greatest use, we are already working on the next level!

We will be happy to receive your feedback and talk about any point of interest.

Food and Drink delivery to the office – a goldmine left untouched?

1-min read

Just behind that wall is a bundle of treasure yet to be reached. Sometimes things are within our grasp, but we fail to see the full picture. This article highlights key reasons why I believe businesses in the Hospitality sector are missing out on a potential gold mine with targeted workplace delivery.

In a world where the line between work life balance seems to be becoming increasingly blurred, being able to offer customers fresh food and drink to their office with ultimate convenience helps to separate them from their working day, even if only for a few minutes. Work can be stressful, so anything that could positively impact a person’s mental health should be considered!

We have all been there, no time for breakfast before commuting or a hectic schedule meaning no lunch break. If you can deliver right to an employee’s desk it takes away the time they need to hunt around for something to eat or drink. Customers can pick their favourite choices and have them in as little as 15 minutes. Convenience is key in this circumstance, from selecting their dishes to checking out, the customer can order in a matter of seconds.

Workplace catering is here to stay

The office is the centre of a business’s creativity. Workplace catering could become a regular revenue source as companies will place large orders to cover several of their staff. Many employees from the same organisation could pick from a menu, creating lots of small orders that you bundle into a single preparation and delivery. There are over 5 million employees in London alone, hopefully this statistic shows the staggering number of potential customers no matter where you are located. Catering to them will allow you to deliver and display your unique restaurant experience at any location, building loyalty and love with consumers.

The characteristics of orders to workplaces at lunchtime are not to be argued with. Standing out from our data is a 30% increase in overall order worth with brands who offer a catering menu. Put quite simply, the higher the value of orders, the higher the profitability. Repeat customers regularly buying £100+ worth of food for their organisation could be compared to a sparkling diamond, right? Scheduled orders are put in every week to brands that are adjusting and accommodating.

We spoke to our good friend Alberto, CEO of a high growth company who regularly caters to his workplace to hear his thoughts.

“I order to the workplace because we regularly have long team meetings and have lunch together to be more efficient with our time. The convenience is that we can work harder, be more effective dedicating less time to lunch while the team is happy with it because we have good quality food together. I would recommend it because it is very practical and convenient, you can keep your meetings and discussions in a friendly and closer atmosphere.”

How Cheerfy could help you reach the goldmine

  • Cheerfy Shop can look to reach customers within a specific delivery range, allowing you to target office heavy locations. We are integrated with platforms like Stuart, which will provide an automated delivery process where we can assign a delivery driver size dependent on the price of the order, saving money and being more efficient with transport.

  • You can use our features to offer separate menus catered for the workplace, which can only be accessed at certain times, offering pre booking or even allocated time slots. Setting a cut off time for offices to order will make sure you do not get overwhelmed in the kitchen during your busiest hours and be 100% in control of your online and physical location.

  • Cheerfy Loyalty will allow you to have a direct channel of communication between you and the office, where customers can register and receive marketing material, as well as discounts and offers. Building a loyalty program with these customers will help you maximise your profits, as it will increase the amount of times regular orders are made.

I hope this article has introduced and potentially shown you why we believe workplace delivery is an untapped opportunity in the hospitality industry. With Covid-19 measures easing, you need to be ready when employees return to the office. Maybe you do not want to be selling high value orders to loyal customers through delivery aggregators who charge a hefty percentage?

If you are already using Cheerfy, we encourage you to think about how you could expand your services to accommodate.

If you do not use Cheerfy but are thinking about it, we would be happy to explain operations and capabilities in further detail.
