Why Your Business Needs Branded Membership Cards

Members only! That phrase makes you feel like you’ve made it, doesn’t it? Branded membership cards are physical embodiments of your brand that provide customers with a feeling that they are part of something exclusive as members of your business. Membership also cards remind your regular clients that they are part of a community and encourage participation.

Moreover, clients carry that card everywhere, making your business’s logo visible to hundreds of people each day. Membership cards do a lot to elevate your business.

With them, you can:

  • Implement a Points System: Have points accrued for dollars spent, events attended, or new members referred. These points can be used to unlock gifts, subscription packages, or other rewards.
  • Offer Exclusive Access: Providing access to rewards, benefits or tiered loyalty programs that are unavailable to non-cardholders makes members feel even more special, thus more apt to stick with you.
  • Enhance Your Business’s Branding: A dynamite design will set you apart from competition. Vagaro’s Design Services Team knows a thing or two about that…

Are Versatile: Vagaro’s membership cards are a breeze to use. They can be utilized by:

  • Scanning the QR code with the Vagaro Check-In App on a tablet
  • Scanning the QR code with a USB barcode/QR code reader
  • Scanning the QR code with a mobile device camera in the Vagaro Pro App
  • Manually keying in the QR code text

Make Check-in Easier: Each membership card’s unique QR code can be assigned to a specific customer and their contact information. This indicates their membership level and enables faster, easier customer check-ins via Vagaro’s software.

Like, A LOT Easier: Pairing membership cards with your branded Vagaro Check-In App reduces the need for front desk staff. With the Check-In App & membership cards, customers can check themselves in, complete forms and purchase additional memberships. When a customer checks in, a notification is sent to their service provider, alerting them of their arrival.

Using branded membership cards & the Vagaro Check-In App also makes it easy to collect important data about member habits and how those affect your business.

Create Brand Consistency: Your membership cards are another venue for your logo, brand colors, fonts & other design elements. What adorns these cards should be consistent with what customers see everywhere else. Having a consistent brand helps customers recognize your business more easily. When your business is recognizable, it helps increase bookings.
