Paper cards do not last
Outdoors and in a busy queue, paper cards are easily damaged or lost, and handwritten stamps are easy to copy.

How does a loyalty card work for a food truck?
A food truck loyalty card works like a stamp card without the paper or the counter. The customer keeps the card on their phone and shows a QR code at the serving window; you scan it with the dashboard on your own phone to add a stamp, and after a set number the reward unlocks. TapTime needs no hardware and no fixed address, so the card is valid wherever you park.

Mobile businesses need a loyalty program that moves with them.
A fixed shop sees the same passers-by every day. A mobile business changes location from day to day, so regular customers need a reason to seek it out.
Most loyalty systems assume a fixed counter
Many systems require a scanner or terminal at a till. A truck or cart usually has only a serving window, a card machine and a phone.
No data across locations
When you serve different locations on different days, it is hard to tell which ones bring customers back or how many rewards you have given.
Everything runs on two phones: the customer's and yours.
The card is kept on the customer's phone, scanning happens on yours, and the statistics are available in the dashboard.
Valid wherever you park
The card belongs to your business, not to an address. A stamp collected at one location counts at every market, event and regular spot.
No hardware, just a phone
The customer shows the code on their phone, you scan it with the dashboard on your own phone and tap Add a stamp. There is nothing to mount, charge or connect.
A reward you define
Nine stamps for a free coffee or meal by default, or any number you choose. Name the reward, describe it, and set the terms and an optional expiry from your phone.
Statistics after every shift
Stamp and reward statistics per location show how many customers are collecting, how many are one stamp from a reward and how many rewards were given.
Several vehicles in one account
With two trucks, or a truck and a cart, one card is valid at both, staff are scoped to their own vehicle, and stamps and rewards are shown per location.
Referrals, promo codes and gift cards
A refer-a-friend program, promo codes and gift cards are part of the module, giving customers a reason to bring others.
Set up your loyalty card in three steps.
No hardware, no onboarding call and no fixed address needed. Everything runs on a phone with the dashboard open.

Paper stamp card compared with a digital card.
| Paper stamp card compared with a digital card. | Paper stamp card | TapTime loyalty card |
|---|---|---|
| Where it is kept | In a pocket, easily lost | On the customer's phone |
| Adding a stamp | A pen or stamp at the serving window | A scan from your phone, logged with the time |
| Changing locations | Customers forget they have a card | The same card, valid wherever you park |

Stamps from every location in one chat and one spreadsheet
Wherever you serve, each stamp and reward can be sent to your team chat, ad platforms and accounts. Included with the loyalty card at no extra cost: no add-on, no higher tier and no per-event fee.
How conversions, webhooks and the API work
Measure campaigns by new members
Each customer's first stamp is sent once to GA4 as sign_up and to Meta as CompleteRegistration, whichever location they joined at, so campaigns are credited with the members they bring in.
Activity from every vehicle on your phone
New members and redeemed rewards from all your trucks are posted to one Telegram group within seconds, so you can follow activity at each location without calling.
Compare locations in a spreadsheet
Zapier, Make, n8n or Pipedream can add each stamp to Google Sheets with its location and time, with no code, so you can see which locations bring customers back.
Data for your bookkeeper, per vehicle
The REST API reads cards and rewards, and the event feed lists every stamp in order. A read-only key lets your bookkeeper's tool read the data without being able to change it.
One flat price. No counter, no hardware and no per-stamp fees.
49 € a month per truck, cart or van. The card designer, the card on the customer's phone, scanning from your phone, statistics, promo codes, gift cards and the refer-a-friend program are all included.
Each additional truck or cart is a location with its own 49 € subscription; one card is valid at all of them, managed from the same dashboard. Other TapTime modules, such as a QR menu, appointments or table reservations, are priced separately.

Frequently asked questions
Do customers need to install an app?
No. The card is kept on their phone. They scan your QR code once and the card is saved, with nothing to install. Cards from other TapTime businesses are stored in the same place, alongside yours.
Does it work without a counter or a till?
Yes. No hardware is required. You open the TapTime dashboard on your own phone, scan the code the customer shows you and tap Add a stamp. It works in a truck, at a market stall or at a client's door.
Does the card work at different spots and events?
Yes. The card belongs to your business, not to an address. A stamp collected at one location counts at markets, events and every other location, and the customer sees the same card everywhere.
Can I use it as a mobile barber or groomer, not just for food?
Yes. It is a stamp card for any business that serves customers at changing locations, such as a mobile barber, a groomer or a car detailer. You give a stamp per visit and choose the reward, scanned from your phone.
I have two trucks. Can they share one card?
Yes. One card is valid at every location in your account, staff are scoped to their own vehicle, and the dashboard shows stamps and rewards per location.
How long does it take to set up?
Designing the card and printing the QR code usually takes less than half an hour. There is no onboarding call, no hardware and nothing to print except the code for the serving window.
What does it cost and is there a contract?
49 € a month per truck or cart, paid monthly by card. No contract, no setup fee and no per-stamp charge. The first 14 days are free and no card is needed to start.
What happens if I stop paying?
After a short grace period the card is paused and shows a brief “temporarily unavailable” note on the customer's phone. Nothing is deleted; cards, stamps and statistics are restored when you reactivate the subscription.
Can my food truck's loyalty card send alerts to our Telegram group?
Yes. Create a Telegram bot, add it to your team's group, and the TapTime dashboard finds the chat for you. Then choose which events it receives, such as new members and redeemed rewards, and each one arrives within seconds as a short message in the language you choose.
