Website, App & Rewards Program Launch

 APP, WEBSITE & REWARDS PROGRAM LAUNCH

FAST FACTS

>> 110% increase in rewards program membership

>> 36% lift in digital sales

>> 40% increase in time spent on website

DEEP DIVE

Pei Wei’s online ordering tech stack wasn’t working as efficiently as we wanted it to. Working closely together with our Interactive Designer, Digital Director and IT team, I helped create the new look and feel for our website and mobile app by writing all the copy and working closely together with our UX/UI Designer to design the page layouts and functionality. I also worked with the Digital Marketing & Finance teams to define and map our new rewards program structure. We were able to get a new website, app and rewards program launched in 10 weeks (roughly 2.5 months ahead of schedule). Once these launched, we saw a 110% increase in our rewards program membership over a 12-month period, a 40% increase in time spent on our website, and a 36% lift in digital sales in the first 90 days.


OLO Integration

Our homegrown approach to online ordering was resulting in a poor guest experience and many lost online orders. We worked with OLO to create a seamless solution that included improved UX/UI and direct integration with our mobile app provider. It was such a success, OLO wrote a case study about it.

Punchh App & Loyalty Program

Our legacy app and rewards program often resulted in lost orders and a lot of guest confusion on how our program worked. It showed in the numbers—only a fraction of our loyalty users actually visited Pei Wei. We made the switch to a new loyalty provider, Punchh, and implemented a new app with a cleaner user flow and an updated rewards program. In approximately 45 days after the program launched, we saw an 84% retention rate of new guests from sign-up to the first visit, which exceeded Punchh’s benchmark of 65%.


Onboarding Screens

Proper communication is key to ensuring your guests understand your product. I noticed our prior mobile app did not have any onboarding screens, which caused guest confusion. I wrote out an entire onboarding section to ensure guests got a clear idea of what our rewards program was & how to use it, right away.
