Why bakeries use PerkClub
The problems that hurt margins most — solved.
Daily-pastry plans
1 pastry a day, free coffee with it, early access to specials. Members pay you whether they make it in or not — and most do.
Bake to a forecast
Members tell you exactly how many regulars to expect. Less waste, less guesswork, more profit on every flour bag.
Compete with the chains
Greggs has a subscription. So can you. Yours costs less to run and supports a real local business — that story sells itself.
Smooth out the post-rush dip
Sell afternoon-only memberships to fill the 2pm lull. Members come in for a slice and a coffee when they otherwise wouldn't.
Who PerkClub is not for
Worth being straight about the cases where this is the wrong tool.
You want a points or stamp scheme. PerkClub sells paid memberships with defined perks, not rewards earned over time.
Your business is a one-off purchase rather than somewhere people come back to. Memberships only make sense where there is a reason to return.
You need a full till or table service ordering. PerkClub sits alongside whatever you already use to take payments, it does not replace it.
You want a marketplace that brings you new customers. PerkClub has no consumer directory. It turns the demand you already have into predictable monthly revenue.

Common questions for bakeries
The specifics that matter for your trade.
Can I limit memberships to weekday mornings only?
Yes. Configure perks to be redeemable on specific days or time windows. Members see the rules on their pass; staff don't have to argue about it.
What about new pastries that aren't on the membership?
List 'pastry of the day' or tag specific items. Anything you don't tag stays full price — and members usually buy it anyway, on top of their membership.
Can multiple people share one membership?
By default, no. Each membership has one wallet pass. If you want family or office plans, set up a tier with multiple passes — PerkClub supports it on Pro and Max.
