When we started Burdi, we kept hearing the same story from independent shop owners. Rising costs, shifting customer habits, and loyalty schemes that haven’t changed since the days of paper stamp cards.
It felt unfair. Big chains have whole teams and expensive tools to keep customers loyal, while local cafés, delis, and shops are left with outdated solutions that don’t really work.
That’s why we created Burdi: a modern, simple (and smarter) way to reward loyalty that works for cafés, delis, grocers, and independent shops of all sizes.

💡 What Is Burdi?
Burdi is a mobile-first payment and rewards app that helps local venues reward their customers instantly, without heavy discounts or extra admin.
For customers, it means you can:
Pay with Apple Pay, Google Pay, card, or their bank app
Earn instant rewards in Burdi points
Spend points like cash at any venue in the Burdi network
It’s quick, easy, and gives people a reason to return or to discover somewhere new nearby.
🔁 How It Works for Businesses
For businesses, Burdi runs quietly in the background. There’s no complicated setup, no bulky till integrations and no stamp pads to keep track of.
You just:
Place a QR code at your till
Get paid instantly
Let Burdi handle the rewards
You decide the budget, and our system does the rest. New customers might get a bigger nudge to try you out, while your regulars enjoy steady, feel-good rewards that keep them loyal.
⚙️ What Makes Burdi Smart
Traditional loyalty tools treat everyone the same. Burdi doesn’t.
Our A.I. looks at:
Spending patterns
How often people visit
What’s happening in nearby venues
From there, it recommends the right reward to encourage a return visit or to help a customer discover another local partner. It’s a smarter way to build loyalty that actually supports the high street.
💷 Why Burdi Matters
Big chains can afford sophisticated loyalty systems. Independent businesses usually can’t. Burdi is designed to level the playing field at a price you can afford.
With Burdi you can:
Reward loyalty without over-discounting
Connect with a wider local customer network
Track and grow your customer base
Save hundreds each year compared to traditional loyalty schemes
And best of all, it’s something customers genuinely enjoy using.
