VIP Engine
Let’s turn first-timers & loyalists into lifers. VIP membership benefits that set your business apart, every month.
Punch cards and POS points don’t build loyalty. Guests want real perks and memberships that feel owned, not earned someday.
- Custom perks built for your margins
- Built-in exclusivity that turns customers into insiders
- Recurring billing for predictable monthly revenue
- Seamless onboarding for staff and guests
Customizable, high-margin perks your guests will love & use often
Automated marketing that increases visits without busywork
Intuitive, real-time program performance dashboards & alerts

Rely on points, punch cards, and random discounts that hopefully generate repeat revenue OR win every month with a paid membership tribe that visits often and brags about belonging?

Take it from Matt…
Martin City Brewing Co. is our longest standing client. They are also fun as hell to work with! The value we’ve provided them is a testament to our grit and determination to be the one tool/system/team you can rely on for ROI, every month. Matt says it best :)
You know what they say… happy clients, happy life :)
We’ve built membership programs with businesses in all sorts of industries. The ROI is real and lasting. We’re proud of the impact our programs have had delivering RARE results for our clients and their program members.
5-Star 365 has created a platform for Made in KC to facilitate customer loyalty in a way we weren’t able to before. Through the program, we’ve been able to create a captive audience that visits our locations at least once a month, which is something very unique in the brick and mortar retail environment today.

The 5-Star team made it easy to establish a loyalty program that fits our brand and increases our fan base. Not only are we seeing more foot traffic but members are raving about the program benefits.
Sarah James
Our loyalty program through 5-Star 365 has been a total game-changer for our restaurant group. It brings in more than $20k every month in membership dues, plus it’s connected to an additional $250K+ in onsite sales. It doesn’t require any extra work on our part and it just keeps bringing customers back again and again and again.

You’ve got questions, we’ve got answers.
Traditional loyalty programs are focused on delayed gratification – earn points today, get a reward some other time. This is the model that nearly all loyalty programs are built on and it’s not what customers want – it just happens to be what the POS has to offer. A Premium Membership Program generates passive revenue, provides instant benefits and sets you apart from all the rest.
We’re more than just a Premium Membership Platform with over 100k users and growing every day. When you work with 5-Star 365, you’re getting a team of marketing and technology professionals in your corner with over 80 years of combined experience. We’re results driven, partnership oriented, and fun to work with. LFG!
Ah, the age old question ;) We work directly with you to create an offer that is irresistible to your customers and profitable for you. This is the most important aspect of your program, so we take time to get it right! With hundreds of offers under our belt, we know what works and what doesn’t. Our experience is your advantage!
Your staff has one primary job. Make sure customers push the “redeem” button on their phone when they are using an offer. That’s it! The rest of the magic happens behind the scenes. We’ve made it as frictionless as possible to ensure your team is empowered by our platform, not bogged down by it. We’ll also provide training materials so your staff has a full understanding of your program and can communicate it to customers clearly and confidently.
Keep it or scrap it. We’ll help you determine what’s best. In short, for your Membership Engine to work you can have it either way. We’re talking about a more specific, VIP experience, not generic points-building. Offers your guests will love, and pay for, to keep ‘em coming back for more.
Almost all POS Loyalty Programs are exactly the same. They rely on a points and rewards system, require you to do all the work, and don’t allow for any customization. We can fit into that program or stand alone. 5-Star 365 works for you and your unique needs!
We don’t charge any monthly fees for our services. We only keep 30% of membership subscription revenue to cover customer and tech support, ongoing maintenance, program updates, ongoing strategy, and credit card processing fees. You keep the remaining 70% of membership subscription revenue, plus 100% of all onsite revenue. This means we only win when you win.
There is a one-time onboarding fee of $995. This covers the research and creation of your offer, along with the development of your custom app, digital sign-up page, design collateral for your marketing materials, automated response emails, and program reports.
From our initial call to the launch of your program typically takes less than 30 days! Our system is designed to fit into your growth initiatives without a bunch of clunky technical jargon or features you’ll never use. That simplicity is your advantage to design a program that will convert and get back to delighting guests with new VIP perks they’ll love.
We handle the design of all your in-store marketing materials (e.g. flyers, table tents, stickers, business cards, coasters, posters, etc.). Each will include a custom QR code that makes it extremely easy for customers to sign up. We also provide training materials for your staff so they can feel confident in communicating with customers about the program.
Our system includes automated messages to all members that keeps your business top-o-mind every month.
