your café
The café is picked from the directory of places on the map: name, address and hours are filled in automatically. All that is left is to check and complete them.
For cafés
We help guests find you, and help you give them a pleasant reason to return
A café profile on the app map, digital stamps, offers and QR-based visit confirmation — in one tool. Which features you get depends on your plan.
A free plan for one confirmed location · 45 days of Pro with no card and no auto-renewal · Map placement is part of the paid plans

You fill in the café profile

Five steps to your first guest
Preparing the profile, the programme and the team in detail is covered in the guide for cafés

Complete the review process
OwnCup reviews the café before it is published. How long it takes depends on the queue; we will tell you the outcome.
Fill in the profile and the offers
Photos, menu, opening hours with breaks — and a reason to return that you set yourself.
Give access
and decide
who does what
Staff are invited by email. Permissions are granted separately: administration, offers, operation history.
Put up the QR code
The location’s QR code is in the back office. Put it where a guest can comfortably scan it: the guest scans the code, a staff member confirms participation in the offer.
What you get
Café tools in OwnCup
The availability of individual features depends on the plan.
Digital stamps and rewards
An eligible visit, a digital stamp, visible progress and a reward. No paper card and no separate café app.
Offers
A café can run several offers. Progress on one does not carry over to the others and is not pooled across cafés.
Aggregated analytics
Aggregated programme activity metrics.
How the team works
Staff confirm eligible visits through a simple workflow, without a required till integration.
Promotional push notifications
A separate feature, not provided on any plan at the moment. When it launches, OwnCup will set it out separately, with its commercial terms, in the business account or in a written proposal — paying for a plan does not by itself grant access to it.
- The café does not pick individual recipients
- The café does not receive the audience’s contacts
Alongside your usual channels
Not instead of maps, social media or your website
OwnCup adds a specialised café map, a profile, an easy way to join the loyalty programme and clear progress towards a reward inside the platform.
Before you start
Practical answers
Do we need to replace the till?
No. The basic OwnCup flow does not require POS integration; staff confirm eligible visits in OwnCup.
How long does setup take?
The programme can be prepared in minutes. A complete launch also depends on the profile, reward and team briefing.
Can paper cards stay during the transition?
Yes. You can compare the digital flow with your current process before deciding how to transition.
Does the map depend on the plan?
Yes. Map placement is part of the paid plans. On the free plan the loyalty programme works and the café is not shown on the map.
How does a café get into OwnCup?
You sign up and set up your profile. The café is picked on the map, and its name, address and opening hours are filled in from there. The profile is then reviewed by OwnCup, after which you set up offers, photos and staff access.
We will help you add your café and set up your first offers.
