Build & Price

Built in not bolted on

Loyalty programs only work when customers actually use them. Cigars POS keeps sign-ups fast and rewards easy to redeem — with SMS marketing built directly into the same system you already use to run your shop.

No third-party apps. No add-ons.

No extra subscriptions.

Built for tobacco, period

Cigars POS was purpose-built for tobacco shops, not adapted from generic retail software — so your loyalty program actually works the way your business does.

Most POS systems charge separately for loyalty, marketing, and reporting. Cigars POS brings it all together in one system, with no subscriptions to stack.

How tobacco store customer loyalty works in Cigars POS

Simple enough to run itself. Powerful enough to fill your shop with regulars.

Sign customers up in seconds

One phone number at checkout — entered by you or the customer. No forms, no apps, no slowdown. Your line keeps moving.

Customers earn points automatically

Every purchase earns points on products without you or your staff doing a thing. It all runs in the background while you run your shop.

Build rewards around your shop

You choose what loyalty looks like — bounce-back discounts, free products, exclusive perks, or all three. Set it up once, and let it run.

Stay top of mind between visits

Points keep customers watching — and coming back to spend them. Built-in SMS and targeted offers turn one-time visitors into regulars.

What's included in your tobacco store customer loyalty program?

Customer profiles with purchase insights

Track buying habits, preferred brands, visit frequency, and spend, so you have real data to personalize offers and build stronger relationships.

Loyalty plus promotions

Run promotions while customers earn and redeem points, so you grow basket size without discounting across the board.

Built-in SMS

Send promotions for new cigar arrivals, limited inventory, or weekend specials straight from your POS, with no separate marketing platform required.

VIP customer visibility

Spot your VIPs by loyalty activity and spend, so you can focus your attention and offers where they make the biggest impact.

Customer segmentation

Group customers by real behavior — premium tobacco buyers, frequent visitors, lapsed regulars — and send each group targeted promotions they're more likely to use.

Real-time loyalty reporting

See which rewards drive repeat visits, what customers redeem most, and who your top spenders are — no guesswork and no spreadsheets.

Build stronger customer relationships — and sell more tobacco

A strong tobacco store customer loyalty program does more than reward purchases — it builds habits. With Cigars POS, you can:

Increase repeat visits

Give customers a reason to return to your shop instead of buying wherever's closest.

Grow average ticket size

Pair rewards and promotions to lift the value of each sale.

Strengthen your best relationships

Recognize and reward the regulars who drive your revenue.

Run marketing from one system

Manage it all from a platform built for tobacco retail, with no add-ons.

"We have membership tiers, and Cigars POS allowed me to customize them all."

I was able to customize our customer database because we have a different system. You pay to be a member and you get perks. We have different tiers, and the system allowed me to customize all of that.

Keith Brick

Manager of F&M Cigars

"I would recommend Cigars POS."

We like that Cigars POS gives us real data. It saves us time on the back end — we have information right there and we can make adjustments on the fly.

Corey Grant

Owner of Tobacco Town Cigar Lounge

"Cigars POS is flexible for whatever you needs are."

WE want people to be here for hours and have that community. The ability for them to continue to add to their tab so they/re not having to ring out over and over again has been great.

FAQs: Tobacco store customer loyalty programs

Is the loyalty program included in Cigars POS?

Yes — the tobacco store loyalty program and built-in SMS marketing are included in the core Cigars POS system at no additional cost.

How do customers redeem rewards?

With Cigars POS, customers redeem rewards at checkout. Your cashier enters their phone number, views their available points, and applies rewards instantly.

Do I need extra hardware?

No extra hardware is needed. Everything runs through your existing Cigars POS setup, including the customer-facing display.

Can I create loyalty tiers or memberships?

Yes. With Cigars POS, you can build custom loyalty tiers and memberships that align rewards with spending levels or customer behavior, so your best customers always feel valued. You can set up a tiered program, where the rewards get better the more a customer spends, or the more often they visit. This gives your regulars a reason to keep moving up and coming back.

You can also create a VIP membership for your top customers, with exclusive discounts and perks that make them feel like part of the club. And because it's built into your POS, every tier and membership tracks automatically, so you can see who your best customers are and send them offers they actually care about.

Can I manage loyalty across multiple locations?

Yes. Cigars POS supports multilocation loyalty management, giving customers a consistent experience across every store.

What rewards work best for tobacco shops?

The most effective rewards for tobacco shops tend to be spend-based discounts, free premium products or accessories, early access to limited inventory, and VIP member perks.

Can rewards be combined with promotions?

Yes — tobacco loyalty rewards can be combined with promotions. Customers can earn and redeem points while taking advantage of your other offers, so you grow basket size without choosing between loyalty and promotions.

Can I message my tobacco loyalty customers?

Yes. With Cigars POS, you can send SMS campaigns about new products, events, and promotions directly from your POS — no separate platform needed.

What if customers opt out of messaging?

If a customer opts out of messaging, their loyalty profile and purchase history stay in your system. You still know who they are and what they buy — you just reach them at the register instead.
