The challenge
Royal Hasselt Yachting Club – a vibrant tennis and padel club in Belgium – was ready to leave behind outdated paper membership cards. The traditional way of printing and distributing cards each year was time-consuming, costly, no longer matched the expectations of their tech-savvy members.
Our solution
LoyaltycardTools created a fully digital membership card, customized to match the RHYC brand, and fully compatible with Apple Wallet and Google Wallet.
To make the rollout as seamless as possible, we integrated a smart SMS distribution system. Each member received a personalized text message containing a unique link to their digital card. One tap – and the card was instantly added to their smartphone wallet. No friction, no hassle.
Integrated with the club's POS system
The digital membership cards were also linked to RHYC’s POS (cash register) system. When a member scans their wallet card at the bar or restaurant, the system automatically:
This created a smooth and smart in-club experience, both for staff and for members – who now enjoy the perks of their membership in real time.
The results
✔️ Fast adoption – Over 85% of members added their card within 24 hours
✔️ Effortless access – No apps, just a simple SMS link
✔️ Cost-saving – No more printing or mailing physical cards
✔️ Modern image – A digital solution that fits the club’s forward-thinking mindset
