What is PEKO in Singapore?
PEKO is an AI customer-retention platform for cafes, restaurants and salons in Singapore. Guests join without cashier involvement, the AI predicts who is about to lapse and sends the win-back message over WhatsApp. It runs alongside any existing POS — it never replaces it — and takes 0% commission on orders.
Built for Singapore — retention without your cashier
Loyalty and CRM forSingapore restaurantsand cafés
Enrolment only happens when your cashier remembers to ask, and at peak they stop asking. PEKO lets guests in Singapore join themselves by scanning a QR or snapping the receipt, then its AI spots who is drifting and wins them back over WhatsApp. Runs alongside your existing POS, PayNow and GrabFood. 0% commission, ever.

The loop that kills loyalty programs
- Step 1
Blind points
Customers earn points but have no way to check their balance — it only shows on the cashier's screen. They play a game they can't see the score of, so they stop playing.
Read the term: Blind points → - Step 2
The cashier bottleneck
Enrolment only happens when the cashier remembers to ask. At peak, they drop the ask to clear the queue — the program stops acquiring members while the owner is unaware.
Read the term: Cashier bottleneck → - Step 3
The loyalty death spiral
The program dies quietly — and the owner concludes 'loyalty doesn't work here'. In reality, the two gaps above interlock into a loop no reward on its own can pull the shop out of.

Updated May 2026 — PEKO is the AI retention layer that runs alongside an existing POS for cafes, restaurants and salons — it never replaces the POS and takes 0% commission. The AI flags customers 3–7 days before they lapse and writes the win-back message itself, Lifts repeat rate by 8–15 percentage points within 90 days.

Your Customers Are Leaving Silently
And without a system to catch them, they're gone forever.
60–75% never come back
Most customers visit once and vanish. They didn't have a bad experience — they just had no reason to remember you over the dozen other options on their phone.
You're depending on staff to connect
Your staff remembers regulars — until they quit. Every time someone leaves your team, you lose the personal touch that kept those customers coming back. That's not a system. That's a risk.
Platforms own your customers, not you
Delivery apps take 28–30% of every order and give you nothing: no name, no contact, no way to reach the customers you worked to win. You're renting your own audience.
Direct ordering that still charges per order
Singapore operators moving off the aggregators often land on a direct-ordering platform that still charges a percentage of every order plus enrolment fees. PEKO charges a flat subscription and takes nothing per order — ever.

Seven mechanics that run without the counter
Each mechanic has its own page — read it before you decide.
- 01NO CASHIER

Anyone sitting in your venue can scan a QR code to join and get a reward — no need to be the payer. Scan on consecutive days for a streak bonus.

See details - 03MEMBER ONLY
Membership tiers
Guests can see their own tier, its perks, and how far to the next one — without ever having to ask staff.
See details - 04COME BACK
Stamp cards
Buy-9-get-1 as always, but the card lives on WhatsApp: nothing to lose, no faked stamps, and every stamp is a logged visit.
See details - 05AUTO SEND
Automated messages
10 built-in guest-care messages over WhatsApp — from welcoming new members to warning about expiring points. Approve once, then stop having to remember.
See details - 06REAL FEEDBACK
Post-visit surveys
One question, one tap. An unhappy guest reaches management right away; a happy one is prompted to leave a review.

Fraud detection
Every receipt a guest submits passes through multiple control layers — rate limits, receipt age, image matching — and the system acts based on risk level.

Chat, don't click. The AI Agent configures PEKO for you — you just approve.
Every other loyalty tool asks you to click through 10 buttons and dropdowns to make one change. PEKO ships an embedded AI Agent that lives inside the product and takes actions for you. Tell it what you want in plain language; it drafts the change in the same screen you'd normally configure by hand. You review and click Approve — nothing goes live without you.
Create a voucher
Old way: 10+ clicks across name, type, value, cap, eligibility, schedule, channel and audience.
With the AI Agent: “Give 20% off laksa to regulars who haven't ordered in 3 weeks, WhatsApp only, cap 500 redemptions.” Agent drafts it. You click Approve.
Build a customer segment
Old way: pick attributes, chain filters, preview, save, name, share — one dropdown at a time.
With the AI Agent: “Show me VIPs in Tiong Bahru who spent over S$200 last quarter and haven't visited in 10 days.” Agent builds the segment and lets you Approve.
Launch a win-back campaign
Old way: brief a marketer, write copy, pick channels, schedule, wire the offer, wait days.
With the AI Agent: “Win back the at-risk regulars this week on WhatsApp with a free kopi offer.” Agent picks the audience, writes the message, sets the send time. You Approve.
- Works across every PEKO module — vouchers, segments, campaigns, loyalty rules, menus, points.
- Flat learning curve: staff who can chat can operate the product from day one.
- Removes daily config toil — the Agent handles the busywork so you focus on customers.
- Approval-gated by design. The Agent proposes, you decide. Nothing ships without your click.

Break-Even
3 orders
Because about 31 more visits a month come back, lifting your repeat rate from 30% to about 32.6%.
How we calculate this
- We assume your repeat rate rises by 4 percentage points in the careful case and 10 in the good case — nothing more.
- We only count the part of that lift you can realistically reach: bringing a known regular back counts in full, turning a first-timer into a regular counts at half, and the projected repeat rate never passes 85%.
- Each extra visit is worth your average order value, unchanged — we never assume people spend more per visit.
- Delivery-app savings count only if you tick the box, and then only on 15% of those orders at a 25% commission.
- Your cost is the Standard plan at list price, spread over 12 months (S$41 a month).
The numbers behind this
- Extra Visits / Month+31 – 78
- Extra Revenue / Month+S$558 – S$1,404
