The bar marketing platform that turns every cocktail, happy hour, and Saturday night into shareable content and repeat traffic.

Free for 14 days. No credit card. Cancel anytime.

Built for Bars

Built for cocktail bars, dive bars, lounges, sports bars, and wine bars. We know the difference between a Tuesday crowd and a Friday crowd β€” and we drive both.

1

Signature-cocktail campaigns

Your craft cocktails deserve Instagram love. Customers who post the drink with the bar tagged earn their next cocktail free. Your menu becomes its own marketing.

Push perks during slow hours, pull back during peak. Happy hour fills earlier, busier, and with the friends-of-regulars who become tomorrow's regulars.

3

Event-night amplification

Trivia night, karaoke, live music β€” every event becomes a content moment. Posters of the event get perks the next time they come in.

Why Social Perks beats generic marketing software

Bar marketing software is usually just POS reports. Social Perks builds the actual demand that fills your bar.

Built for the moment of the pour

Our QR cards live on the bar, the table, the back of the receipt. The post happens while the cocktail is in hand β€” not three days later.

Designed for nightlife aesthetics

Every asset matches your bar's vibe β€” neon, minimalist, vintage, or speakeasy. Nothing breaks the atmosphere.

Group-bookings amplified

Birthday and group bookings are 5x more profitable than walk-ins. We build the perks that bring them back, with their friends, again and again.

Bar owners ask us

Everything you need to know before starting your free trial.

How is Social Perks different from generic marketing software for Bar?

Most marketing tools are built for ecommerce or SaaS. Social Perks is built for local bar businesses. Every template, perk, and AI suggestion is tuned for bar customers β€” the people, behaviors, and platforms that actually drive walk-ins, bookings, and reorders.

Do I need to be tech-savvy to run campaigns for my bar?

No. If you can send a text message, you can launch a Social Perks campaign. Pick a template, choose a perk (free coffee, $10 off, a free upgrade), and we generate the QR code, signage, and customer flow. Most bar owners are live in under 15 minutes.

How do customers actually post about my bar?

They scan a QR code at your counter or follow a link from a receipt. They pick an action (post a photo, leave a Google review, tag a friend, share a story), complete it, and our system verifies it through platform APIs. Then they get their perk instantly β€” no manual checking.

What kinds of perks work best for a bar?

Small, instantly-redeemable perks beat large ones every time. A free drink, a $5 discount, an upgrade, or a free add-on converts at 3-5x the rate of a "10% off your next visit" offer. Our AI suggests perk values based on your industry, location, and average ticket size.

Will this actually bring new customers in, or just reward existing ones?

Both β€” and the math works either way. A new customer acquired through a friend's Instagram post costs you ~$3 in perk value vs. $20-40 through paid ads. An existing customer who posts brings in 2.4 new visitors on average. Your existing fans are your cheapest acquisition channel.

Is this compliant with FTC disclosure rules?

Yes. Every post generated through Social Perks is auto-tagged with the required FTC #ad or #partner disclosure for the platform. We handle compliance so you don't have to think about it. This is built in and cannot be disabled.

What if a customer posts something negative or off-brand?

Our AI review pipeline flags off-brand, inappropriate, or low-quality content before it counts toward a perk. You set your brand standards once (family-friendly, no competitor mentions, on-message), and the system enforces them automatically.

How long does it take to see results for a bar?

Most bars see their first customer post within 48 hours of launching. Measurable lifts in review count, Instagram mentions, and foot traffic typically show up within the first 14 days β€” which is why we let you try the entire platform free for two weeks.
