GOOD TO KNOW
Your questions,
answered.
What is CouponBank for garages?
A customer-retention platform combining garage coupons, digital loyalty, DVLA integration, SMS and notifications.
How does the DVLA integration fit in?
Your garage connects through CouponBank to DVLA vehicle data. The team can explain the data available and the setup needed for your customer workflow.
Does communication depend on the customer opening the app?
No. SMS gives you an additional channel alongside app and loyalty notifications.
Can we create tyre and servicing offers?
Yes. Shape garage-specific coupons with clear eligibility, expiry and redemption terms.
Can customers have a VIP card and collect loyalty rewards?
Yes. Your garage can issue named VIP identities and create its own visit- or service-based reward rules. Customers present their unique QR code when they visit.
Can CouponBank help us collect Google reviews?
Yes. Invite customers to leave an honest review after a completed job and monitor the feedback journey. Invitations should be neutral and sent consistently—not offered only to customers expected to leave a positive rating.
