Beyond Emails: Leveraging Push Notifications with Breadstack and Sticky Cards
Because loyalty shouldn’t live in your customers’ spam folder.
Breadstack gives cannabis retailers a strong marketing base — especially when it comes to email:
Post-order emails
Product recommendations
Targeted promotions
But here's the problem:
Customers don’t always check their email.
And when they do, your message is often buried under a pile of promos.
That’s why smart retailers using Breadstack are adding Sticky Cards — a loyalty layer that lets them send push notifications directly to their customers’ lock screens.
Why Push Messaging Works Better Than Email for Loyalty
Let’s compare the two:
Channel | Engagement | Visibility | Cost | Timing |
10–20% open rate | Inbox (often buried) | Free | Delayed | |
Push (via Sticky Cards) | 40–60% tap rate | Lock screen | Free | Instant |
Push notifications cut through the noise. They show up where your customer is — not in a tab they check once a day.
“It’s the first time our loyalty messages feel immediate — like we actually reach people in real-time.”
How Push Works with Breadstack + Sticky Cards
Sticky Cards plugs into your Breadstack flow with zero disruption:
At checkout, customers are prompted to save a digital loyalty card to Apple or Google Wallet.
That card becomes the channel for push — branded with your store, ready to engage.
You send targeted push campaigns using Sticky Cards.
Your customers tap, engage, and come back.
Campaign Ideas That Go Beyond Email
“🔥 New Drop Alert — Today Only!”
“🎁 You’re due for a reward! Tap to check your card.”
“👀 Nearby? Stop in for a 10% off on pre-roll.”
“🎉 Happy Birthday! Show your card for 20% off.”
These push messages skip the inbox and show up where customers will actually see them — no login or app required.
Use Push + Email Together
Sticky Cards doesn’t replace Breadstack emails — it amplifies them.
Use email for longer-form campaigns
Use push for immediacy, urgency, and foot traffic
Let your loyalty card carry the brand presence 24/7
