Where you create and manage promotions — a conversation, not a configuration screen.
AI promotions & loyalty · web · app · POS
You have a better idea than 20% off.
You’ve probably had a promotion idea this year that never ran — too fiddly for the app, too small for a dev ticket. That’s the idea PerkQi is built for: describe it in plain English, see it backed by your store’s own numbers, and take it live in under a minute — margin guarded the whole way.
Free for 30 days, on your real store — not a sandbox.
PerkQi is promotions-and-loyalty software for retailers.You connect it to your online store or point of sale, describe a promotion in plain English, and it targets, runs and tracks the whole thing — with your margin rules enforced on every discount. It replaces the discount app, the loyalty app, and the spreadsheet in between.

PerkQi Guide
What talks to shoppers during their visit — announcing offers, nudging on product pages, closing at the cart and the till.
The rules engine
Checks every discount against your margin floor, stacking rules and spend caps before a shopper ever sees it.
Our approach
Your intuition at the core — and you in the driver’s seat.
Here’s what we believe: your intuition is worth more than our technology. Years of watching customers decide, right there in your store, teach you an emotional equation that isn’t in any dataset — only you know it. And that read isn’t abstract — it’s everything you’re juggling today: the overstock in the back room, a tight shipping week, a festival around the corner, the mood of your customers during a big event. So we took a different approach: PerkQi is built to take all of that in and run with it — no developers, no prescriptive workflows, no waiting on anyone.
In your hands · 1
Your idea, run whole
The idea that’s been sitting in your notebook? Describe it exactly as you imagine it — audience, conditions, timing, even today’s stock position or a shipping constraint. PerkQi runs your idea — it never squeezes it into a pre-fixed workflow.
as complex as your thinking

Enterprise power, from day one
The techniques the biggest retailers use — real-time targeting, margin-aware offers, per-shopper messages — ready the day you connect your store.
no integration queue, no six-figure contract

No engineering team needed
You run the store; PerkQi handles the systems. A promotion goes live in a minute, and you tweak it in a sentence — anytime.
zero lines of code
That flexibility is the point: promotions become a natural extension of how you already play with social media — have the idea in the morning, have it live by lunch.
One system, on purpose
Everything a promotion needs, in one place.
PerkQi runs the idea, the delivery, the conversation and the sale together — instead of stitching separate tools together with exports and hope. That’s what makes three things possible:
Advantage 1
It sees the live session
Your model learns from what shoppers view, add and hesitate over right now — not just past orders. And the model is truly yours.
Advantage 2
It acts in the moment
The right offer appears while she’s deciding — on the product page, at the cart, at the till — so you win the sale without deeper cuts or wider blasts.
Advantage 3
It guards your margin
Every discount is checked against your margin floor, stacking rules and spend caps before a shopper ever sees it — deterministically.

That’s the point of one system: each part feeds the next.
How it works
Tell it what you want to happen. It answers with your store’s numbers.
It starts with your instinct and backs it with your numbers. Nothing runs until you agree — and you can tweak it in a sentence, anytime.

Margin safety
The AI writes the message. It never sets the price.
One stack, split on purpose — so you can hand promotions to an AI without handing it your margin.
The AI
Persuades. It picks each shopper’s offer from your approved pool and writes the pitch for the moment. It proposes — it never prices.
The core
Pays. Before a shopper sees a cent off, every discount is checked against your margin floor, your stacking rules and your spend cap — deterministically.
The AI suggests; the rules engine decides. There is simply no path for it to invent a discount you didn’t approve.

Move the discount, set your own floor and margins, and watch the floor hold. The bars are the margin left on the order, by product group. The starting figures are an illustration, not a measured result.
The compounding part
Every promotion makes the next one smarter.
Because PerkQi runs the whole loop — not just one piece of it — every shopper response comes back to your model. Yours alone.
Each store gets its own model, trained only on its own data. It gets better the longer you run it — and none of it is shared with anyone else.
Who’s behind it
We’ve been building retail systems for thirty years.
Our founders have spent their careers building payment systems and customer-engagement platforms for the world’s largest retailers — multi-lane chains, petro convenience networks, environments processing millions of transactions a day, across North America, Europe and Asia.
The techniques that work for big retailers — real-time personalisation, margin-aware offers, decisions made while the shopper is still in the store — never really reached everyone else. Not because they’re secret, but because the software has been too expensive and too complex for anyone without an engineering team.
PerkQi packages that same engineering — the reliability, the speed, the data isolation — into something you can run yourself, without a technical team.
You stay in control
The AI drafts, you approve. It works inside the budgets and rules you set, and nothing goes out without your sign-off.
Your data is yours
Each store runs on its own isolated database. Nothing is pooled with other merchants or used to train their models.
Every offer earns its keep
Discounts go to shoppers whose decision they’ll actually change, not to people who were buying anyway.
The challenge
Bring us the promotion you couldn’t run.
On the call, we’ll build it in front of you and backtest it on your last 180 days of sales. You keep the report — whatever you decide.
You’ll leave the call with an actual number for your store. Flat monthly fee — we never take a percentage of your discounts. 30 days free; full pricing on the call.
