Customer engagement software

Give customers a reason to come back sooner

Engagement for a local business means one thing: the next visit. Promotedly gives customers something to come back for, whether that's a game to play, a coupon that loses value the longer they wait or a reward about to expire, and reminds the ones who opted in, without flooding their inbox.

  • Games and countdown coupons
  • Reminders by consent
  • Totals per campaign

The problem

Customers like you, then forget you

Most customers don't leave because of a bad experience. Life gets busy, a new place opens, and the habit fades.

  • Visits drift apart

    The gap between visits quietly widens, and by the time you notice, the customer has a new habit.

  • Generic newsletters

    A monthly email with nothing concrete in it gets ignored, then unsubscribed.

  • No signal of what works

    Without totals per campaign, you can't tell which promotions brought people back.

How Promotedly handles it

Something concrete, at the right moment

Every message is tied to a reward or an offer, and only goes to people who agreed to hear from you.

  1. Make the first visit memorable

    A scratch card or wheel at the counter is more fun than a flyer, and the result is decided on the server.

  2. Create a reason to return

    A countdown coupon loses value on your schedule; a loyalty challenge rewards the next visit.

  3. Remind at the right time

    Reward reminders before a reward expires, and win-back messages after a gap you choose.

  4. Respect the inbox

    Every send checks consent, quiet hours and a frequency cap. STOP and unsubscribe work instantly.

Countdown coupons

A coupon that's worth more if they come in today

A countdown coupon starts generous and drops in value on a schedule you set. Its reminders say exactly what it's worth now and when it drops next, so the message is never just "hurry".

  • You set the dropsHow much it loses, how often and when it ends.
  • Reminders you chooseTurn each reminder moment on or off; nothing sends overnight.

Is it right for you?

Who it suits, and who it doesn't

A good fit if

  • You rely on repeat visits more than one-off sales.
  • You want messages tied to real rewards, not newsletters.
  • You want to see which promotions actually bring customers back.

Probably not the right tool if

  • You need a full CRM with sales pipelines and support tickets.
  • You want to import an existing list and start messaging it. Without a consent record, Promotedly won't send marketing to imported contacts.

Free for your first 100 customers, with no card required.

Paid plans from $59 a month, priced by how many customers your rewards list holds. Every promotion type is on every plan.

Questions

Customer engagement software questions

How often will my customers hear from me?
Only as often as you choose, within a frequency cap, and never during quiet hours. Each message is tied to a reward or an offer, and customers can opt out at any time.
Can I send a one-off offer to my list?
Yes, on paid plans. A person on your team sends it from the portal to customers who opted in to that channel. AI assistants connected to Promotedly can't send messages.
Can I import contacts I already have?
Not as a marketing list. Without a recorded opt-in, there's no evidence they agreed to hear from you. Run a promotion to invite them to join with a real opt-in.
Which channels can I use?
Email and text. Texts send from your own connected Twilio or Telnyx number, which bills you directly for messages; email sends from your connected sending address.
Do my customers need to download an app?
No. There is no customer app. A customer scans the QR code or taps the pop-up, and the whole promotion runs in their phone's web browser on a page in your brand.
