Petpooja Loyalty alternative

Wallet-native loyalty for restaurants, regardless of POS.

Petpooja's loyalty module is built into their POS, convenient if you already run Petpooja, locked-in if you don't or ever want to switch. Brava is the wallet-native loyalty layer that runs alongside any POS, with Apple Wallet, Google Wallet, and Samsung Wallet passes, lock-screen presence, and geo-fenced alerts when a customer walks past your shop.

Why teams switch to Brava

Wallet-native across Apple, Google, and Samsung

Petpooja loyalty lives inside the POS dashboard and surfaces to customers as SMS. Brava lives inside Apple Wallet, Google Wallet, and Samsung Wallet, so the loyalty card itself is on the customer phone, not in a text message thread that gets archived.

POS-agnostic by design

Petpooja loyalty assumes you run on Petpooja POS. Brava is closed-loop and POS-independent: install the program, swap your POS later, switch from Petpooja to anything else, the loyalty layer keeps running unchanged. Zero migration cost when your stack changes.

Lock-screen presence + geo-fenced alerts

Petpooja triggers SMS at the bill. Brava triggers a wallet notification on the lock screen the moment a customer is within ~100m of your shop, before they have ordered anything. Two different points in the customer journey to nudge.

Five program types, not two

Petpooja ships points and a cashback Virtual Wallet. Brava ships five distinct program types: stamp cards for cafes, points for the retail line, tiered memberships for premium customers, discount passes for promos, and full membership cards. Pick the one that matches the behavior you actually want to reward.

Different bets on the same problem

Petpooja is the established name in Indian restaurant POS for good reason, their depth on restaurant operations is hard to match. We took deliberate detours on the loyalty layer specifically. Worth knowing the choices on both sides if you are picking between us.

1

Petpooja owns your POS. Brava owns the wallet.

Petpooja is the dominant Indian restaurant POS, that scale and depth on the operations side is real. Their loyalty module is bolted onto that POS, which is convenient if you are already running it. Brava made the opposite call on purpose: we do not touch your POS, we own only the customer-facing layer (the pass, the lock screen, the geo-trigger). If you are committed to Petpooja and want loyalty in the same dashboard, theirs is the easier path. If you want the loyalty layer to outlive any specific POS choice, ours is.

2

Petpooja loyalty is a sub-module. Brava is a product.

Petpooja loyalty is one feature inside a much larger restaurant management platform. Brava is loyalty-only, every dollar of engineering is on the loyalty experience: card design, wallet UX, geo-triggers, customer analytics, multi-program orchestration. Smaller scope, sharper edge, no compromises with bill flow or kitchen orders.

3

Petpooja goes wide on restaurant ops. Brava goes wide on verticals.

Petpooja covers restaurants comprehensively, that focus is their moat. Brava covers cafes, restaurants, salons, gyms, spas, and retail with one product. If you run only restaurants on Petpooja, theirs is a natural fit. If you run multiple business types or are not on Petpooja, Brava is the wallet-native option that does not assume any specific stack underneath it.
