Revio's scanner works on any smartphone with a camera. Staff open it in their browser and point at the customer's wallet pass. Points go on right away, with a confirmation both the staff member and customer can see. There's no hardware to buy, no software to install, and no IT setup. Your team can start scanning within minutes of creating your loyalty program.

Benefits

Key benefits

01

No Hardware

Works on any smartphone with a camera: iPhone, Samsung, Xiaomi, or any other brand. Staff open the Revio scanner in their mobile browser and point it at the customer's pass. There's no need to buy barcode readers, POS terminals, or tablet stands. For businesses with tight margins like coffee shops or bakeries, that takes out the biggest upfront cost of running a loyalty program.

02

Under 2 Seconds

Scan and confirm before the line moves. The scanner reads the QR code from the customer's wallet pass, identifies the customer, and adds stamps or points in under 2 seconds. Staff see a confirmation screen with the customer's name and updated balance. During a busy morning rush at a coffee shop doing 200 transactions per hour, those saved seconds add up to about 6 minutes of recovered serving time per shift.

03

Works Offline

The scanner keeps working even when the internet drops. If the connection cuts out briefly (common in busy malls or basement locations), the transaction is queued on the device and syncs once you're back online. So your loyalty program never stalls at peak hours, even where Wi-Fi or mobile coverage is spotty.

04

Staff Training

The scanner is a single screen with one action: point and scan. New staff can pick it up in under 3 minutes with no formal training. There are no menus to navigate, no login codes to remember, and no multi-step workflows. That matters for businesses with high staff turnover or part-time employees who work only a few shifts a week.

Process

How it works

1

Open Scanner

Staff open the Revio scanner on their phone by tapping a saved bookmark or home screen shortcut. The scanner is a progressive web app (PWA), so it launches right away without waiting for an app to load. Add it to the home screen for one-tap access, and it opens as fast as any native app.

2

Point & Scan

The phone's camera turns on and reads the QR code on the customer's Apple or Google Wallet pass. It works in any lighting, including dim spots like restaurants or bars. The scanner picks up passes from any angle within about 10-30 cm, so staff don't have to line it up precisely.

3

Confirm Action

The scanner shows the customer's name and current balance, then staff tap a button to add stamps or points. For stamp programs, it's a single tap: "Add Stamp." For points programs, staff enter a custom amount (based on the bill total, for example). A confirmation animation and a short vibration tell both staff and customer it went through.

4

Customer Updated

The customer's wallet pass updates within seconds. They see their new stamp count or points balance without pulling to refresh or doing anything at all. The pass just updates. If they've earned a reward, both the staff member and customer see a reward notification, so the redemption can happen on the same visit.

Use cases

Perfect for

Quick-service restaurants with high throughput where scanning must take under 3 seconds per customer
High-volume retail environments with multiple checkout lanes running simultaneously
Multi-location businesses where standardized scanning works identically at every branch
Event check-ins for workshops, fitness classes, or community gatherings where attendance tracking matters
