Why restaurants and cafés in the Philippines lose regulars
Pain #1
GrabFood and foodpanda take up to 20–30% per order, and own the customer
Aggregators charge 20–30% and never share the customer relationship. PEKO pulls the diner back to your own Messenger + WhatsApp channels: 0% commission, direct to you.
Pain #2
Filipino diners live in Messenger and WhatsApp, but retention runs on nothing
Every Filipino diner already opens Messenger or WhatsApp hourly. Your rewards live on a punch card that's lost by month two. PEKO closes the gap: rewards and win-back land in the chat they already use.
Pain #3
Enterprise CRMs cost millions of pesos
The retention CRMs sold to Jollibee and Max's cost ₱2M+ upfront. Nothing exists at ₱17,900/year for a single-outlet cafe. PEKO is that price point: with the AI a mall-anchor chain would recognise.
How PEKO's AI works for restaurants and cafés
Capture. Predict. Win them back.
- Step 1
AI scores every regular daily from POS or CSV
PEKO connects to your POS or a CSV. Starts scoring every customer within 24 hours. Even paper-only shops can upload a customer sheet and see the at-risk list from day one.
- Step 2
Win-back on Messenger AND WhatsApp: in Filipino, Cebuano, English or Taglish
The AI drafts the message in the language and channel the customer prefers (Messenger for a Cebu regular, WhatsApp for a Manila corporate) at their usual order hour.
- Step 3
0% commission direct ordering via GCash and Maya
Re-orders land direct via GCash or Maya. No Grab cut, no foodpanda cut. Every recovered order is a full-margin order, and a step out of aggregator dependency.

Why PEKO
Receipt Scan Loyalty
Snap any receipt. Points land in seconds. Guests photograph the receipt your POS already prints.
Group Check-In
The whole table joins, not just the one who pays. Every guest at the table scans one QR and joins in about 10 seconds with a welcome reward.
AI-first operations (PEKO AI Agent)
Prompt it. PEKO does it. Example: “Free drink for regulars who haven't visited in 3 weeks, WhatsApp only, cap 300 redemptions”.
PEKO vs traditional loyalty CRM
| Topic | Traditional loyalty CRM | PEKO |
|---|---|---|
| Joining | Cashier asks for a phone number or the guest downloads an app | Guest snaps the receipt or scans the table QR; no cashier |
| Who becomes a member | Only the person who pays | Everyone at the table |
| POS | Integration project or a specific POS | Any POS that prints a receipt |
| Making a change | 10+ clicks across menus; staff need training | One message to the AI Agent; you approve |
| Win-back | Manual blasts when someone remembers | AI flags drifting regulars and drafts the win-back |
| Setup | Days to weeks (integration, training) | About 15 minutes, self-serve |
| Price | Monthly fee from day one, plus setup or per-message fees | Free up to 300 members, then US$39/month; 0% commission; cancel anytime |
| Your data | Sits with the vendor | Yours, export anytime |
