Sage Pharmacy Classic style

How to set it up in your pharmacy

Only for health and beauty products, never for medicines: that's how you reward regulars and stay within the law.

Recommended setup

What earns points
Only health and beauty: skincare, hygiene, sun care, baby care
Points
1 point per dollar on those products
On joining
10 welcome points
First reward
A travel toiletry bag, at 60 points
Big reward
A sunscreen or a moisturizer, at 200 points

In many countries the law doesn't allow rewards tied to the sale of medicines. When you add points, enter only the amount of non-medicine products.

What each reward costs you

RewardPointsCosts you, roughly
A travel bag with samples60$1-2
A baby hygiene kit120$3-5
A moisturizer200$5-8
A sunscreen200$5-9

Reward with products from your own shelves. Many customers discover a brand this way and keep buying it from you.

An example: Teresa, skincare every month

Teresa buys her face cream and some hygiene products every month, about $35. With the 10 welcome points, on her second purchase she gets a travel bag.

Before summer she reaches a free sunscreen and tries it for the first time. Since then, she buys it from you.

Her prescriptions don't earn points and Apego doesn't store what she buys: only the amount and the points.

Mistakes to avoid in pharmacies

  • Points on medicinesIt isn't allowed in many countries. Record only the amount of health and beauty products.
  • Generic rewardsA discount voucher adds nothing. A travel bag or a sunscreen from a brand you sell introduces your products.
  • Not telling regularsWhoever comes in every month for their cream earns fastest. Offer it at the counter.
What to say at the counter When you ring up health and beauty products:
“This cream earns you points. At 60 we'll give you a free travel bag.”

Automated emails that bring them back.

Your customers already walk in; the challenge is getting them back. These four emails go out on their own.

Frequently asked questions

Anything else? Write to us and a real person will answer.

Write to us
Can I give points on medicines?

Usually not. Many countries, including most of the EU, don't allow rewards or incentives tied to the sale of medicines. When adding points, enter only the amount spent on non-medicine products: skincare, personal care, nutrition or baby care. Rewards should be non-medicine products too. If in doubt, check your local pharmacy regulations.

Does it record which products each customer buys?

No. Only the amount and the points of each purchase are recorded, never the products or any health data. Customers join by accepting the terms and can delete their account whenever they want.

Which rewards do you recommend for a pharmacy?

Products customers already use: a travel wash bag as the first reward, and a sunscreen or a moisturizer for your regulars. Specific products work better than discounts.

Do my customers need to download an app?

No. They scan your QR and their card opens in the phone's browser. If they want, they can add it to the home screen with one tap.

What if a customer doesn't have a smartphone?

No problem. They just give their phone number at checkout and you add their points. They never need to use the website.

How much does it cost?

You start with a 30-day free trial, no card needed. Then the Basic plan costs $18 a month and Pro $49 a month, plus taxes. Pay yearly and get 2 months free. You can cancel anytime.

I bought Apego and it's not for me. Can I get a refund?

Yes. If you're not happy, we refund your payment within the first 30 days.
