Know your customers. Keep them coming back.

Kin helps businesses understand, engage, reward, and retain their customers.

Your POS records the sale. Kin helps you understand what it means.

Every day, your business generates valuable information. Kin brings this information together so you can understand your business and take action.

Understand your customers

Stop relying on memory to know your customers. Kin gives you a clearer picture of the people buying from your business — their purchase history, visits, spending and activity.

Know your customers.

See who they are, what they buy and how they interact with your business.

Spot customers who are going quiet.

Identify customers who haven’t returned and take action before they’re lost.

See the customer behind the transaction.

Turn individual POS transactions into useful customer information.

Understand your products

Your POS can show you what sold. Kin helps you see how your products are performing.

Kin calculates these signals from your sales, receipt, inventory and product data — giving you more than another sales report.

Identify

  • Best-performing products
  • Slow-moving products
  • Products with declining sales
  • Stock-out risks
  • Products with low sales while stock is available

Market to your customers

Having customer data is only useful if you can do something with it. Kin gives you tools to communicate with your customers and run marketing campaigns.

Reach the right customers

with relevant messages, promotions and announcements.

Turn customer information into marketing action.

Everything you know about a customer becomes something you can send them.

Reward customers who keep coming back.

Give customers a reason to choose your business again. With Kin, you can create loyalty programmes built around:

Points
Rewards
Visit incentives

Customers can see their points and rewards, while your business can manage redemptions directly through Kin. Make every purchase an opportunity to build loyalty.

Listen to your customers

Your customers already have opinions about your business. Kin gives them a direct way to send feedback — and gives your business a place to see and respond to it.

Because knowing what customers buy is only part of understanding them.

The rest is what they say when you ask.

Know what they think, too.

Their words, in one place, where you can answer them.

Bring customers back.

Not every customer leaves because they stopped liking your business. Sometimes they simply haven’t been reminded to return.

Find them while they are still findable.

Kin helps you identify customers who are becoming inactive and gives you tools to re-engage them.

Don’t just wait for customers to come back.

Give them a reason to.

Common questions

Everything you need to know

What is the best customer loyalty app in Zimbabwe?

Kin — built for Zimbabwean shops, restaurants, coffee shops, salons, barbershops and services in Harare, Bulawayo, Mutare, Gweru and Victoria Falls. POS-driven customer profiles, points, rewards, visit incentives, WhatsApp reminders and PayNow payments (EcoCash, InnBucks, Omari, Zimswitch). Owners run Kin from the Android app — nothing to buy, just download it — and customers use Kin Rewards, the customer Android app, to see their points, rewards and visit progress, signing in with the phone number the till already knows. Everything a customer can do there also works in a browser at kin.co.zw/portal, so installing the app is a choice rather than a requirement.

What is Kin?

Kin is a customer loyalty and customer-intelligence app for Zimbabwean businesses. It automatically builds customer profiles, purchase history and revenue insights from your point-of-sale data, and lets you reward customers with points, discounts and free products.

Does Kin work with Sales Intellect POS?

Yes. Sales Intellect, SalesPlay and Keith Tech POS connect with a back-office API key, and Loyverse connects with a personal access token. Kin syncs customers, visits, receipts and purchases automatically — then awards points once per receipt and reverses them on refunds.

How do customers earn loyalty points?

Customers earn points automatically when they buy — Kin adds points the moment a sale prints. They redeem them for rewards like discounts, a free product or a free service using a code at the till.

How do customers redeem rewards?

At kin.co.zw/portal customers see their points and rewards, redeem for a 7-day till code, and the cashier validates it in Kin. One active code per reward — points are never deducted twice.

How much does a loyalty program cost in Zimbabwe?

Start free, then Plus is $8 per month after a free 7-day trial (no card needed) — paid by EcoCash, InnBucks, Omari or Zimswitch via PayNow.

Is automated WhatsApp included in Plus?

Yes. Marketing is part of Plus — campaigns you send yourself, and Autopilot rules like "customer has not bought for 30 days → send a message" and Kin sends them from your business’s own WhatsApp number, automatically. The number is registered for you for a one-off setup fee, and messages are prepaid from your dashboard — so Plus is the only monthly charge.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. Every new business gets a free 7-day Plus trial with no card needed. After that you can stay on the free plan or upgrade to Plus for $8 a month, paid by EcoCash, InnBucks, Omari or Zimswitch via PayNow.

Is Kin available in Zimbabwe?

Yes. Kin is built for businesses in Zimbabwe and works with Zimbabwean point-of-sale systems and PayNow mobile money payments.
