OBERON and VEXiON cards: The Perfect Partnership for Your Loyalty Program

We're excited to announce a new integration between VEXiON cards and the OBERON POS system! This partnership brings a fully digital loyalty program straight into your existing point-of-sale system — without any complicated setup.

How Does the Integration Work in Practice?

The process is incredibly simple:

1. The customer creates a digital loyalty card at your location via a QR code
2. The card is automatically stored in Apple Wallet or Google Pay on their phone
3. On their next visit, the customer scans their card through our scanner
4. OBERON automatically assigns the customer to the current receipt with no extra steps
5. After the purchase completes, points are automatically credited to their digital card

Everything happens instantly — no delays for your customers or your staff!

Two Types of Loyalty Programs

With the VEXiON x OBERON integration, you can run two main types of loyalty programs:

1. Points-Based Loyalty Program with Cashback

It works simply:

• Customers earn points for purchases based on the settings in OBERON
• Points can be awarded based on the total receipt value or on specific items
• In VEXiON cards, you set how many euros one point represents (e.g., 1 point = €0.10)
• Customers can redeem their points as a discount on their next purchase through the "Redeem Rewards" function in OBERON

Example:

• A customer spends €50
• They earn 50 points (at a rate of €1 = 1 point)
• At 1 point = €0.10, they have a €5 credit to use on their next purchase

2. Tiered Discount Loyalty Program

Rewards your loyal customers for their long-term spend:

• The system automatically tracks total customer spend
• Based on lifetime spend, the customer is placed into the matching discount tier
• The percentage discount is automatically applied when the customer is identified

Example:

• The customer has spent a total of €1,000
• They reach the "Gold" discount tier with a 10% discount
• On their next purchase, the 10% is applied automatically

How Does It Work Technically?

From a technical standpoint, the integration works like this:

1. The scanner is connected to the OBERON device and set as a customer card scanner
2. After scanning the card, OBERON sends a request to our server with the card number
3. Our server returns the customer's information and their points/discount status
4. After the transaction completes, OBERON updates the point balance on our server
5. The digital card on the customer's phone is updated (via a push notification)

The whole process is secure and runs in real time.
