Forge Rewards

Starbucks memberships for restaurants

Description: The Problem In high school (post-pandemic), we saw firsthand while working at a Korean corndog shop and a mom-and-pop Chinese restaurant that local restaurants struggled with building a presence. Since then, we’ve learned that local businesses and mom-and-pop restaurants face issues with driving repeat, in-person traffic - while losing 30% to third-party delivery apps. Stores needed an easy, user-friendly platform that could: Enhance their discoverability via a marketplace Retain customers who spend more Reclaim profitability without having to manage an entire app by themselves. We wanted to create a network that allowed users to easily access multiple restaurants from a single app rather than downloading dozens of individual, white-labeled apps. Our Solution: Forge, the last loyalty app you’ll need. Forge is a centralized platform to access loyalty programs for many restaurants and stores. We want to drive in-person traffic and have rolled out new features that encourage engagement and discovery like order-ahead (at select restaurants), a social points leaderboard, and a marketplace to connect food creators. Our vision: We see a future where restaurants form deep ties with local neighborhoods and beyond — Forge will power this communal growth. Using Forge is easy: 1) Download our app, 2) Check in at stores and earn points, 3) Redeem unique rewards at any store.
