The Free Astro Loyalty Consumer Mobile App - How to Get It & Use It
What it is...
It is a downloadable application for pet owners with Android or iPhone smartphones. It is available in the App Store or the Google Play Store under Astro Loyalty Consumer App. You can Customize your Account's Mobile App and brand it with your store's logo.
What it does...
The Astro Loyalty Pet Owner App gives the pet owner access to a variety of information from you, their favorite pet supply retailer. It allows them to see all open frequent buyer program cards, and browse all of the other great offers and promotions currently available to them at your store. The list of Offers updates every time you enroll in a new Astro Offer and that Offer goes Live.
How to get it...
When a customer signs up for your loyalty program make sure to ask them for their email address, this will serve as their Username when they download the Mobile App. Add their email address to their Pet Owner Account and send them either the Welcome Email (when you add them as a New Customer) or the Verification Email (when you edit an existing customer's Pet Owner Account). This email will include links to download the Mobile App and it will guide them through the process of setting up their Password.
Once they have the Mobile App downloaded to their phone all they need to do to login is:
- Enter the email address you used at your Astro Retailer.
- Enter the password you created from the Welcome Email (or follow the Get Started prompts to setup a new Mobile Account).
Update 11.18.2019
There is a NEW Astro Loyalty Mobile App for iPhone!
The old version still exists on the Apple Store under the name "Astro Loyalty Pet Owner App" the new App is branded "Astro Loyalty Consumer App". If your customers were using the older version of the App they will be prompted to download the new version to their phones and then all they need to do is login to the new app with their existing Username and Password and all of their stats will be there.
The Android Mobile App has been updated!
There is no need for your customers to download a new Android App to their phones if they were already using the original App. The Android version of the App will update for them automatically and is now called the Astro Loyalty Consumer App.
Free Astro Shelf Talkers and Marketing Kits
The simplest way to introduce your customers to your Astro Mobile App is via our pre-made Shelf Talkers. These shelf talkers let your customers know about the rewards you offer, and they show them the means to stay informed of both those rewards and their progress towards earning them.
Your Astro Offers Shelf Talkers & Frequent Buyer Shelf Talkers all contain a QR code that your customers can follow to download their phone's version of the mobile app (iOS or Android). The free Astro Marketing Kit also contains those same QR codes.
Do you want to make your own signage? Here's the QR code.
How Best to Send a Mass Email to your Customers with Info to Download the Mobile App
If you have been on Astro for awhile and don't want to go through and send Welcome/Verification Emails one by one, you can send the following instructions in a mass email to all of your customers who currently have an email address associated with their account.
Example of a Mass Email to send to all of your customers on Astro.
Remember, make sure you are sending this email either via Astro, or to only the customers on your Astro account with email addresses. If a customer does not have a Pet Owner Account on your Astro Account and an Email Address saved on that account they will not be able to access the App and this email will just confuse them to all end.
