    This name will appear in the list of locations a user's loyalty account is linked to. The location name should be recognizable for customers and allow easy recognition for users for which location they are using. 

    Examples and Recommendations:

    1. A laundromat may use the same name as the displayed on the business's signage. If the business has multiple locations, add a city name, or street name for further identification.

      1. Smart Wash

      2. Smart Wash - Niles

      3. Smart Wash - Golf Rd

    2. An apartment complex may use the name of the complex and, if applicable, the building name/number and floor.

      1. Oak Park Apartments - B1 / F2

      2. Oak Park Apartments - Main Office

  2. Address

    The address is displayed below the name, along with the location on a local map.

  3. Phone
    The phone number entered here should be a business contact number for customer usage. When a phone number is entered into this field a phone icon will be displayed in the Loyalty app that will pull up the default phone program/app on the device and enter the phone number for the user.
