Square Loyalty only
Square Loyalty is a basic add-on for Square POS (essentially a digital punch card). It counts visits and gives rewards. That's about it. No churn prediction, no automated win-back campaigns, no personalization. If you're on Square and just want a simple rewards program, it works. But it won't help you figure out who's about to stop coming or do anything about it.
