Introduction to the Stone Machine Rewards Program
Want to turn every sale into an opportunity to foster loyalty and increase revenue? The Stone Machine's points program does this by integrating cashback and rewards directly into the sales flow, making engagement easy and encouraging customer return.
This program is not just another complex loyalty system. It is a simple, transparent solution that benefits vendors and consumers with speed and operational simplicity. Here, we explain how it works, its advantages, limitations, and how the Smartbis platform enhances its results.
How the Points and Cashback Program Works at the Stone Machine
The program records points for each purchase made by the customer via the Stone Machine. These points can be accumulated and exchanged for discount vouchers or cashback.
- Card linking: the customer associates their loyalty card with the Stone Machine system at the time of purchase, directly on the device.
- Points accrual: for each payment, the system credits points automatically, according to the established rules.
- Voucher use: accumulated points are exchanged for discount vouchers or cashback, applied directly on the Stone Machine for the next purchase.
This integration ensures real-time tracking of benefits, offering transparency and speed for vendors and customers.
Step-by-step to register and use the program via Stone Machine and Smartbis
- Establishment registration: access the Smartbis portal and register your business to activate the program on your Stone Machine.
- Program configuration: define accrual and redemption rules, minimum values, and voucher types.
- Sales team training: teach the team to link the customer's card during the sale, using the Stone Machine interface.
- Point monitoring: use the Smartbis dashboard to track point accrual and validate vouchers, ensuring full control.
- Voucher redemption: instruct salespeople to apply vouchers in subsequent transactions, generating automatic discounts or cashback.
Following these steps ensures the program operates correctly and generates real benefits.
Benefits and impacts on the business
Integrating the Stone Machine program with Smartbis management brings significant improvements:
- Simple loyalty: clients accumulate points and return more frequently.
- Transparency and control: a clear interface reduces doubts and errors, building trust.
- Productivity increase: automation eliminates manual tasks and rework.

The program turns a financial service into a powerful commercial tool.
Possible limitations and technical requirements
To use the program effectively, consider:
- Dependence on the Stone Machine: the device must be updated and connected for correct point registration.
- Sales team training: without proper training, linking the card and using vouchers may fail.
- Well-defined rules: confusing rules harm adoption and generate doubts.
- Technical limitations: some Stone Machine models may not support all features; verify before implementation.
Addressing these points ensures efficiency from the start.
