Regulr connects to your taproom POS, captures walk-in traffic onto your list, and runs personalized marketing on autopilot. The result is customers who come back more often, spend more, fill your events and new beer releases, and leave more 5-star reviews.
The problem
Not because the beer was off. Because life got busy, a new taproom opened down the block, and nobody reminded them to come back. The data is brutal:
76%
of first-time taproom visitors don't come back
5x
cheaper to bring back a customer you already have than win a new one

what the average brewery spends on retention marketing today
But there's a deeper problem
Every year, the channels you rely on cost more and reach less. Email opens are sliding. Instagram organic reach has collapsed. SMS carriers filter aggressively and customers opt out. Then there are wallet passes.

Step 1: Capture
QR on the coaster. NFC on the tap handle. A 15-second branded quiz “hops or malt?”. A free beer on their next visit, a mug-club trial, or first dibs on the next can release. Phone captured, wallet pass on their phone, before they finish the pint.

Step 2: Retain
Regulr reads your Toast, Square, or Arryved data, learns who drinks what, and writes messages in your brewery's voice. The hazy crowd hears about the new DDH. The lager drinkers get the festbier release. No batch blasts, no generic loyalty spam.

Marcus
Cerebral Brewing · Hazy regular
“Marcus — Galaxy/Mosaic DDH dropped this morning. We pulled 2 cans aside with your name on it. Bar closes at 9.”
Can release: matches Galaxy-hop preference, 11 days since last visit
Devon
Cerebral Brewing · Lager drinker
“Devon, festbier hits the taps Friday at 4pm. First pour’s on us. Should pair nicely with whatever the food truck rolls in with.”
Lager-style match + Friday cadence (visited last 3 Fridays)
Sarah
Cerebral Brewing · Mug club, fading
“Sarah, it’s been 5 weeks. Your mug’s still on the wall (#247). Sour Saturday is back this weekend, kettle and mixed-ferm both pouring.”
Win-back: mug-club member, last visit 38d ago, sour preference

Step 4: Grow
Untappd is where drinkers rate you. Google is where they find you. Most breweries leave both to luck. After a good visit, Regulr identifies happy customers from POS signals (repeat visit, bigger tab, no comp) and sends a one-tap review request.
The right channel, sent at the exact right moment, while the IPA is still on their breath.

Loyalty, your way
Some breweries want a points engine. Some have a mug club they love. Some just want the wallet pass to do its job. Regulr supports all three. Set up in minutes, no rewrites.
Points per visit, tier ladders, birthday pours, anniversary milestones. Pick a template, tweak it in the dashboard, go live the same day. No code, no rebuild.
Already running Toast Loyalty, Square Loyalty, or a homegrown mug club? Regulr layers on top. Your rules and rewards, our reach and intelligence.
Just want to capture customers and push messages? The wallet pass works without points. Add a program later when you're ready, or never.
Whichever path you pick, your customers get the same branded wallet pass. The program is just the rules on top.
Events
Breweries live on the event calendar. Anniversary parties, can releases, tap takeovers, trivia, live music, beer dinners. Regulr automatically pulls new events from your website, learns who cares about each, and pushes the right invite at the right time. The room fills before the doors open.
Push to every drinker whose palette matches the new SKU. Pre-tap holds for regulars. First-come, first-poured. No more sellouts you can't repeat.
Auto-invite every customer who hit the bar in the last 12 months. Quiz on the wristband captures everyone new walking in. The room is pre-filled.
Guest brewery in town? Capture their fans as your own. The quiz routes them to whatever style they pre-selected. They leave with your pass on their phone.
Trivia Tuesday, food truck Friday, DJ Saturday. Push to the regulars who liked it last time. Every recurring night becomes a known-customer fill.

Compounding
Illustrative growth for a brewery capturing 200–300 visitors a month at typical taproom volume.
Wallet passes have 96% retention at 30 days. Customers don't unsubscribe, the inbox doesn't bury them, the carrier doesn't filter them. Every drinker you capture stays captured.
Every send teaches the engine who responds to what. Hazy drinkers, lager drinkers, Friday regulars, Saturday-only crowds. Month 12 messaging beats month 1 by a mile, no work from you.
Twelve months of capture, segmentation, and refinement is a moat no new brewery can match by writing a check. The longer you run, the harder you are to catch.
