Self-service, with house rules

Put something useful into the shift.

Brands build a venue-approved benefit, brief, or activation—not a generic banner campaign. Shiftie controls the templates, venues control participation, and partners pay for qualified attention or fund a useful perk for the hospitality pros they actually meant to reach.

Card headlineUseful lessonService cue

Partners write the draft. Shiftie reviews claims and format; each participating venue approves the live program.

Where may it appear?

Scanner protectedThe bartender's scan and item-choice screens never carry ads.

The operating loop

Self-service at the edges. Guardrails in the middle.

Verify

Confirm the partner, category, billing profile, and people allowed to publish.

Build

Choose a useful program, venue/city/market target, placement, schedule, frequency, and budget.

Approve

Shiftie reviews the creative; every venue can approve, decline, pause, or end participation.

Deliver

The live service resolves one eligible placement and protects operational screens from distraction.

Reconcile

Settle redeemed perks and report aggregate reach, learning completion, reward use, geography, and venue participation.

Built for the big version

The buying workflow and the delivery engine stay separate.

Control plane

Campaign setup, approvals, budgets, creative review, venue permissions, and billing can evolve without touching a live redemption.

Delivery plane

Precomputed eligibility, strict frequency caps, one placement per moment, and an immutable impression ledger keep serving fast and auditable.

Reporting plane

Aggregate events into a warehouse for partner reporting. Employee identity, schedules, choices, and redemption history never enter the buyer dashboard.

The rule that protects the whole thing

One sponsor. One useful moment. Never in the way of service.
