INTRODUCING GUEST360

The restaurant CDP
that starts from the transaction.

HOW IT WORKS

From first swipe to proven revenue.

Follow Evelyn, a guest who never signed up for loyalty, through Guest360’s full identity and activation journey.

01
All channels. Every transaction. Nothing missed.

Guest360 ingests data from every touchpoint: POS, online ordering, kiosk, loyalty, payments, and third-party delivery. If a guest touches your brand, it enters the system. Right now those signals are scattered. This is where it all begins.

WHY GUEST360

No one else starts from the transaction.

Traditional CDPs organize data about guests who’ve already identified themselves. Guest360 discovers guests who’ve never raised their hand.

STRAIGHT FROM THE OPERATORS WHO HELPED BUILD IT

Our Product Advisory Group put it best.

Guest360 was built alongside a group of restaurant operators who joined PAR’s Product Advisory Group, sharing feedback, shaping features, and stress-testing the product before it launched. These are their words.

“Punchh loyalty allows you to reach your most loyal guests. With Guest360, you can now go beyond that reach, connecting with guests from the very beginning, their first transaction.”
“Guest360 is how you understand your guests, to give them more of what they want and less of what they don’t. Grow behavior among loyalty guests and those who haven’t signed up yet.”
“The AI will identify the blind spots that we don’t know about. It also answers the #1 question from our executives: ‘how are you using AI to guide the decisions you’re making?'”

“Having an AI tool telling you to exclude segments from certain campaigns, for a very lean team, that’s like having an additional headcount.”
