Capital Teas Shifts to Mobile Payments & Loyalty Program

More and more brands are making moves to leverage the rapid shift to mobile by customers in the wake of Apple’s mobile wallet announcement. Capital Teas, a specialty tea provider headquartered in Annapolis, Maryland, has selected Levelup to power its mobile payment and loyalty app. In addition to enhancing customers’ mobile experience by providing one easy place to access their method of payment and loyalty rewards, Capital Teas’ app will also place the Capital Teas card right in Passbook, just next to the customer's other payment method choices, namely Visa, Amex and MasterCard. But only when customers pay with Capital Teas’ branded card will they automatically accrue/redeem rewards.
 
LevelUp, the industry's leading mobile-first payment and loyalty platform, enables merchants to provide customers with a seamless loyalty and mobile payment experience, while giving brands the rich, real-time customer data they need to run a successful loyalty program.
 
Customers using the Capital Teas app, and integrated “Pass,” will unlock rewards each time they reach a certain spending threshold at Capital Teas. With its strong online retail presence in mind, Capital Teas also plans to incorporate in-app ordering in a second release for an even better customer experience.
 
The Capital Teas app is slated to launch in November and will be available as a free download on the App Store and Google Play.
