Square Loyalty awards points at checkout on your Square terminal. Your MedSpa clients earn 1 point per dollar. After $500 in treatments, they get $25 off. But your Square terminal only sees clients who walk through the door. The 40 potential clients who searched Google and found your page-2 result rarely reached your terminal. Loyalty points reward the transaction. Marketing creates the transaction. You need the second before the first matters.
TL;DR
Square Loyalty rewards transactions that already happened. Growth creates transactions that have not happened yet. WebEvo Pro generates new clients first, retains them second.
The sequence matters. Plumbers, roofers, and med spas need fundamentally different infrastructure than a B2B SaaS startup.

Loyalty Programs Without Acquisition Retain a Shrinking Base: Loyalty platforms reward repeat patients and clients, valuable for retention. But service businesses lose 20-30% of active patients and clients annually through natural attrition (moves, competitor switches, life changes). Without acquisition marketing generating new loyalty members, the program manages organized decline. WebEvo Pro acquires new patients and clients AND retains existing ones.
When Square Loyalty Makes Sense
Square Loyalty fits Square POS merchants in retail, food service, and salons where frequent transactions and tight POS integration make point-based loyalty frictionless. If clients visit weekly and pay through Square, loyalty integration is frictionless.
For MedSpas, dental practices, and law firms, growth first with WebEvo Pro.
