Building direct relationships with retail customers

Hill's Pet Nutrition wanted to reward customers for repeat purchases and build long-term brand loyalty, but lacked a direct relationship with end consumers who purchased through retail.

How the rewards program works

Smartslip.ai enabled a "Buy 3, Get R100" campaign where pet owners uploaded till slips for Hill's products. After 3 validated purchases, customers received Pick n Pay vouchers, building a direct brand relationship.

    Qualifying Science Plan purchases start the loyalty journey at retail.

  2. 02Smartphone and three blank till slips ready for upload

    Upload three till slips

    SmartCheck validates each receipt and tracks progress toward the reward.

    Receive an R100 voucher

    After three validated purchases, pet owners receive a Pick n Pay voucher.

For the first time, we have direct relationships with our customers and can reward them for loyalty. The receipt validation was clear and built trust.
