October 2025 Release

# We’ve shipped a big update — here’s everything new.

Create your own loyalty program, automate emails/SMS/WhatsApp with the smartest rule builder on the market, clean your database, print chits over Wi-Fi, level-up mobile, and more.

 

## #1 - Create & manage your own **Loyalty Program**

**Out of the box and ready to use** — or integrate with your existing loyalty system.

It’s super easy to award **loyalty points and vouchers** to guests, or *plug in your own* program.

[Set up your loyalty program](mailto:hepsiba@eatapp.co?subject=I+want+to+create+a+loyalty+program&body=Hi+Hepsiba!%0A%0AI+want+to+create+my+own+loyalty+program.+Can+you+show+me+how+on+Eat+App?)

 

## #2 - Automate **anything**

Major upgrade: decide **When, Why, and How** rules fire across email, SMS, WhatsApp, tagging, and more.

## #3 - Schedule WhatsApp campaigns **over multiple days**

Send gradually to avoid daily limits and **climb tiers faster**. Blast campaigns just got 10× easier.

## #4 - Unique by phone number” database mode

Keep your DB clean with daily de-dupe runs. We can also do a one-time clean for you. **Use with care.**

Now supported on mobile apps, desktop, and iPad.

## #6 - Mobile app improvements — now with **Push Notifications**

Autofill guest info, a cleaner reservation editor, floor-plan tags, and configurable push notifications.

## #7 - Create your own **forms & surveys**

Capture data before, during, or after a reservation; responses auto-link to the right guest/reservation for segmentation & personalization.

## #9 - Smarter overview of **available tables** 🧠

See space overviews anywhere in the app, and filter GridView (e.g., *tables for 2*).

[Explore availability](https://app.eatapp.co)

 

## #10 - Branded **multi-link** widget

Menu, reservations, ordering, events — **customizable** and bundled in one link.

Until next time 👋
