Nicolati's (coffee and crepes) Franchise Wallet & Loyalty App
Budget: $1,500 – $3,000 USD
Nicolati’s Mobile App Development
Project Overview
We are looking for a skilled app developer to create a fully functional loyalty and payment app for Nicolati’s, integrating Apple Wallet & Google Wallet, a loyalty point system across franchise locations, gift cards, location-based promotions, and direct payments to franchisees. The app must have both a customer-facing version and an internal franchisee version (tablet access) for managing promotions and transactions.
Key Features & Requirements
1. Loyalty & Points System
• Customers earn points for each crepe purchase at any Nicolati’s location.
• Points can be redeemed at any franchise location fairly, with an equal distribution system for franchisee compensation.
• Franchisees will have real-time visibility of redemptions and earned revenue.
2. Digital Wallet & Payment System
• Customers can add money to their app wallet to pay at any Nicolati’s store.
• Option to gift money (Gift Cards) to other users.
• The ability to store gift cards and special discount coupons within Apple Wallet & Google Wallet.
• Funds are deposited directly to the respective franchisee upon payment.
• Customers can pay in-store via QR code or direct app payment.
3. Franchisee Tablet App & Admin Panel
• Franchisees get a tablet app for internal use to:
• Activate location-specific promotions that notify nearby customers.
• Track customer transactions & redemptions.
• Manage real-time data on loyalty point usage.
4. Location-Based Features
• Interactive Map displaying all Nicolati’s locations.
• “Find Nearest Nicolati’s” based on customer location.
• Store details & hours for each location.
5. Push Notifications & Customer Engagement
• Customers receive real-time promo notifications from their nearest franchise.
• Exclusive deals for loyalty members and specific clubs.
6. Multi-Platform Compatibility
• iOS & Android apps for customers.
• Tablet app for franchisees with admin access.
7. Security & Scalability
• Secure payment processing with end-to-end encryption.
• Scalable database for growing franchise locations.
Required Deliverables
1. Customer App (iOS & Android) with loyalty points, digital wallet, payments, and location features.
2. Franchisee Tablet App for managing promos & redemptions.
3. Backend Admin Panel to manage users, transactions, and locations.
4. Integration with Apple Wallet & Google Wallet.
5. Testing & Deployment on App Store & Google Play.
Budget & Timeline
• Provide a detailed quote with milestones.
• Expected development time: 3-6 months.
How the Point System Will Work
1. Earning Points
• Customers earn X points per crepe purchase (e.g., 1 point per L10 spent).
• Points are linked to the app account and not location-specific.
2. Redeeming Points
• Customers can redeem their free crepe at any Nicolati’s.
• The system will track which location earned the sale vs. which location redeemed the points.
• Revenue Compensation for Franchisees:
• If a customer earns points at Location A but redeems at Location B, the system will allocate a portion of future redemptions to balance payouts across franchisees.
• Monthly or real-time point reimbursement system ensures fairness.
3. Preventing Abuse
• Limits per day/week to prevent excessive redemptions.
• Minimum spending thresholds before redemption.
• Real-time fraud detection.
Next Steps
Please quote a price & timeline, and include examples of past loyalty/payment app projects. Looking for a long-term partner for app maintenance and updates.
