Captivate Loyalty Engine

Firestring's Captivate Loyalty Engine is an enterprise loyalty program management platform.

Captivate uses 2D barcodes to cut costs in the distribution of loyalty cards to customers, relying on Firestring's unique 2D barcode reading applications CoolCam for webcams and MobiSnap for mobile phones.

Your sales team makes use of existing and wide-spread devices to scan customer loyalty cards at the point-of-sale, whether at your tills or out in the field.
