Why Sparo

“In Hong Kong, one card works for the train, the coffee and lunch. On campus, every shop has its own paper stamp card. So I'm building one card for the whole street.”

For shop owners

Turn first visits into regulars.

Sparo is a rewards app your customers already have on their phone, with a tap card for anyone who wants one. Plus an assistant that tells you how to bring them back.

An assistant that tells you what to do

Every week it reads your taps and suggests one move: win back regulars who stopped coming, or fill your quiet hours.

Your assistant suggests · Sample data

Win back

Bring back 8 regulars

They came about 4 times a week and stopped 3 weeks ago. 6 saved a contact, so they can get a double-stamp offer.
