How it works

Free to start. Three ways it pays you.

You only ever pay when Often brings you money you would not otherwise have. Start on free stamps; add packs and a pass when you are ready.

Always free
€0

Free stamps

Regulars collect a stamp per visit by scanning a QR. Hit the goal, the next coffee's free. No app for them, no fee for you, no customer cap.

Wins you regulars

3% / pack

Prepaid packs

A regular buys 10 coffees up front for €30. Stripe splits it automatically — you keep €28.20–28.70, in your bank in two days.

Wins you cash flow
Phase 3
12% / sub

Chain pass

Daily regulars subscribe — €40/mo for 15 drinks across every location. You net ~€34/mo, recurring, per regular.

Wins you recurring revenue
No surprises on the fee

On a €30 pack, you keep €28.20–28.70.

Often's 3% and Stripe's processing fee come out of the top — shown explicitly, refunds tracked, EU 14-day cooling-off handled for you. Compare that to a card terminal's 1.5–3% plus a monthly fee, or paper cards that just lose you customers.

Who it's for

Built for the café, not the marketing department.

You run one café

Free loyalty that never touches your margin — and a cash-flow bump the first time a regular buys a pack. No POS to rip out, no contract to sign.

You're growing to 3–5 sites

One stamp program and one pass across every location — a stamp earned at one redeems at another, with analytics that finally span the whole chain.

Your regulars come daily

Give the person who is in every morning a way to commit — a pack or a pass — and to feel like a regular, not a transaction.

Questions café owners actually ask

Will this replace my POS?

No. Often runs in the browser alongside whatever point-of-sale you already use — no terminal to rip out, no retraining on a new register. Your barista just taps to scan a QR.

How is it actually free? What is the catch?

Stamp cards are free forever — no monthly fee, no customer cap. We only earn when you earn: 3% on prepaid packs and 12% on chain passes, both of which bring you revenue you would not otherwise have. Founding partners get every feature free, forever.

Is 3% on packs worth it for money I would earn anyway?

A pack puts the cash in your bank in two days instead of trickling in €4 at a time, and it locks in the commitment up front. Card terminals charge 1.5–3% plus a monthly fee; paper cards lose you customers; doing nothing gets you zero upfront cash flow.

What if I want to leave?

No lock-in, no exit fees. Leave any time, and customers keep using packs they have already bought until those expire. We would rather earn next month than trap you in this one.

What if a customer does not finish a pack?

EU cooling-off is automatic: an unused pack is fully refunded within 14 days and Often absorbs Stripe's non-recoverable fee. After the first redemption or 14 days, a refund needs your approval — so you are never on the hook for a surprise.

Every feature, free forever — for founding partners.

We are taking a first cohort of specialty cafés in each launch city. Free forever, all features, and a direct line to the founder.
