Complete every step before serving customers. Perkstar keeps earning and till redemption off until the required card, scanning and balance checks are ready.

Before you connect

  • Confirm Perkstar and Loyverse use the same currency. Till redemption requires a currency with two decimal places.
  • Sign in as a Perkstar owner or manager and use a plan that includes Loyverse.
  • Make sure you can approve apps for the intended Loyverse business.
  • Finalise the connected Points card’s earning and Points-to-Cash rules before moving customers. Perkstar copies the current Loyverse points balance; it does not rebuild value from receipt history.
  • Keep every POS device online while configuring and testing it.
Perkstar will not clear an existing Loyverse points balance until its direct migration has recorded every eligible customer and copied the current points exactly. Activation then validates the same snapshot, clears the old balances twice and publishes only each customer’s spendable Perkstar balance.

Prepare the Points card

The card picker shows eligible cards under Ready to connect. Cards under Needs changes cannot be selected and include an Edit link explaining what to fix. A compatible card must be:
  • active and unarchived;
  • a Points card for individual customers, not a group-enrolment card;
  • configured to earn automatically by spend or visit, rather than by manual points entry;
  • configured with an ongoing Points-to-Cash balance and a valid conversion;
  • set to flexible spending with a positive minimum balance before spending;
  • configured to display a QR code; and
  • configured to require First name and Email on the sign-up form.
Stamp cards, reward-level Points cards, set-amount Points-to-Cash cards, group-enrolment cards and manual-earning cards cannot be connected. Flexible Points-to-Cash is required because a cashier can enter any eligible amount up to the available balance.

Set Loyverse earning to 0%

1

Open Loyverse Back Office

Sign in to the same Loyverse business you will connect to Perkstar.
2

Open Loyalty settings

Go to Settings → Loyalty.
3

Save zero percent

Set the loyalty earning percentage to 0%, then select Save.
This setting applies across the Loyverse account. Perkstar cannot read or change it through the Loyverse API, so you must confirm it during activation and leave it at 0% while the integration is live. See Loyverse’s loyalty instructions.

Connect and activate

1

Connect the correct businesses

Start the Loyverse connection, sign in to Perkstar and choose the business if asked. Authorise access to Loyverse business details, customers and receipts. On return, check the Loyverse business name and currency before continuing.
2

Choose the Points card

Select the intended card under Ready to connect, then choose Use this card with Loyverse. Use the guided Edit link if a card is under Needs changes.
3

Move existing customers and points

In Step 2, choose Check existing Loyverse customers. Review the customer count, total points and any named issues. The owner can keep the copied balances exactly as they are—the default—or approve the card’s configured welcome points for eligible existing customers. Perkstar shows the maximum points and cash-equivalent exposure before anything starts. Confirm the data-transfer instruction and, where shown, approve replacing the exact existing customer codes. Then choose Copy customers and points. Perkstar copies total_points as the opening membership balance; it does not recalculate old purchases. Follow the customer migration and invitation guide for the full transition journey.
4

Tell customers about the move

Only after Step 2 says the migration is complete, open its results. For the first rollout, send one controlled included-email or paid-SMS test to an eligible owner-controlled membership, then complete the till checks below before releasing the remaining included service email, paid SMS, or both. Perkstar does not message customers automatically. Every message opens the exact migrated membership so the preserved balance stays attached to the right person.
5

Enable customer card scanning

Read and confirm the customer data-sharing notice, then choose Enable customer card scanning. Customers moved in Step 2 remain bound to their exact Loyverse profiles. Perkstar publishes each managed Wallet QR identifier and shows live progress as X of Y customers ready. Resolve every listed conflict before till redemption is available. For customers who join after cutover, Perkstar links one unambiguous exact-email profile or creates an eligible profile when none exists.
6

Configure every POS device

In Loyverse POS, open Settings → General and enable Use camera to scan barcodes, unless the device uses a compatible external scanner. Tap Add customer, scan a test Wallet card and confirm the correct customer opens. Repeat this on every new or replacement device.On a Teya Android terminal running Loyverse, try the built-in camera first. A SUNMI Blink or another compatible 2D scanner can be used in USB HID/keyboard mode when the terminal or dock provides USB host/OTG access. Test the exact terminal, dock and scanner together before buying or rolling out hardware.
7

Enable till redemption

Confirm separately that every device can scan, Loyverse is set to 0%, and existing balances may be replaced. Choose Enable till redemption and allow about 20 minutes for a small customer list. A list of around 550 customers typically takes 30–90 minutes; lists above 2,000 can take several hours. Activation includes a required 15-minute safety wait between two complete balance checks. You can leave the page after starting because Perkstar continues safely in the background. Keep Loyverse earning at 0% and do not let staff redeem or manually edit old Loyverse points from the Step 2 snapshot until activation finishes. Do not serve customers until the page says scanning, earning and redemption are connected.

Customer information used for scanning

During the one-time transition, Perkstar reads the existing Loyverse customer directory, exact customer IDs, contact details, current points balances and customer codes so the business can preserve its loyalty members and value. When scanning is enabled, Perkstar sends the customer’s name, email address, optional phone number and managed Wallet scan identifier to Loyverse. Customer reference IDs, receipts, redemptions and balance data are exchanged to run the integration. The business must instruct this transfer, tell customers about the sharing and have an appropriate lawful basis. No marketing consent is inferred.

Test before going live

Use a synthetic customer and record the expected result for the connected card’s exact earning and conversion rules.
  1. Scan the Wallet card through Add customer, attach the customer and complete one paid sale without redemption.
  2. Confirm points were added once and the Wallet fields updated.
  3. Complete another sale and redeem a smaller amount, such as £1.25 from a larger available balance.
  4. Confirm precisely that amount was deducted—not pennies and not the complete balance.
  5. Refund the second sale against its original receipt and confirm the eligible correction was applied once.
If setup stops or a button remains unavailable, follow the on-screen Before you can continue list. The Loyverse page can also send a redacted setup snapshot to Perkstar support and returns a reference number. That snapshot contains milestones, permission state and aggregate counts only—not customer contact details, individual balances, access tokens or raw provider responses. Continue with the staff checkout guide.
