Thanx alternative: loyalty that runs on the same guest record
Thanx is a focused loyalty platform for restaurant brands, known for card linked rewards that need no app and strong online ordering partners. Benvo Loyalty costs much less per venue and earns from the POS, bookings, events, spa and hotel stays on one guest record. Chains that want card linked rewards across many units may still prefer Thanx.
