Digital loyalty card for cafés in Berlin
From specialty coffee in Kreuzberg to roasteries in Mitte to the neighborhood café in Prenzlauer Berg – Berlin is a coffee city. But with over 3,000 cafés, the competition is brutal. The digital loyalty card turns walk-in customers into loyal regulars who keep coming back to you.
Why Berlin cafés lose their regulars
A third-wave café in Kreuzberg had the perfect roast and a loyal regular crowd. But paper loyalty cards didn't fit the minimalist design. The cards sat next to the La Marzocco machine – and were ignored by most customers. The baristas had no time to ask about them every time.
When a new café opened three doors down, many customers switched. Without customer loyalty, there was no reason to stay.
Typical problems:
- Over 3,000 cafés in Berlin – the next alternative is just meters away
- Specialty coffee customers expect modern design – paper cards look unprofessional
- Cyclists and public-transit customers don't carry a paper loyalty card
- Tourists try once and disappear – without a digital bond there's no return

Frequently asked questions
How does the loyalty card work for my Berlin café?
Very simple: you print out your QR code and place it next to the register. Customers scan the code with their phone camera or the Stempely app and collect stamps – the card lives in Apple Wallet, Google Wallet or in the app. After 10 stamps (or a number of your choice) there's a reward – e.g. a free coffee.
What does it cost for a small café?
Getting started is free. The Basic plan is enough for many cafés. Premium with push messages is available from 13,99 €/month – less than four flat whites at your place.
Does it hold up the operation when it's busy?
No, stamping takes just 3 seconds. The customer scans the QR code themselves – you don't have to do anything. It holds up neither the queue nor the baristas.
Can I offer different rewards?
You set the reward in the settings. Whether "10th coffee free", "Free croissant with your coffee" or "€5 discount" – you decide what fits your café.
What about customers who don't have a smartphone?
Stempely runs on all modern smartphones (iOS and Android) – via Wallet or app. In Berlin, practically every café guest has a smartphone with them. For the few exceptions, your café of course continues to work as usual.
