Peet's Coffee: Earn Rewards
Overview
The Peet's Coffee application, developed using the Paytronix loyalty platform, handles mobile ordering, customer relationship management, and digital rewards for the brand. Designed for quick-service beverage operations, the app aims to reduce friction in the ordering and pickup process.
The application's core feature is the Peetnik Rewards program, which awards points on mobile orders and in-store purchases. Users earn points that can be redeemed in an in-app reward store for free drinks, breakfast foods, packaged whole beans, or specific drink customizations.
The app includes a customization engine that allows users to adjust dairy preferences, syrup quantities, espresso shots, and foam levels. It also features location-aware store locators to direct users to the nearest cafe, where they can choose between in-store pickup, curbside delivery, or home delivery depending on the location. It supports multiple payment options, including stored value cards, credit/debit profiles, and mobile payment.
The app's interface uses natural language prompts and displays visual photos of the baristas handling each order, helping to maintain a personalized customer connection within a digital layout. The app's technical base relies on React Native, which ensures a shared codebase across Android and iOS. This helps lower development overhead while preserving design consistency.
