This document will draft out the enablement plan for BK DE Loyalty. We will include risks to the launch and actions to take if those risks happen
Overview
Milestone | Status | Description |
---|---|---|
POS deployed | DONE | Toshiba deploys the new version of the software, Loyalty-capable. By default the loyalty integration should remain disabled to allow testing before use. |
RAM updated | IN PROGRESS | RAM must be configured to indicate whether a given store supports loyalty. This update should be made in advance to ensure only stores that participate in Loyalty result in the guest’s point balance being updated. |
Loyalty tested on the POS | DONE | There are two main scenarios to test in-store March 5-6:
These tests will require to be synced with Kiosk test stores the following setup:

Loyalty tested on the Kiosk | DONE | Like for POS, there are two scenarios to test in-store March 5-6:
These tests will require to be synced with POS test stores the following setup:
|
Loyalty reset | IN PROGRESS | RBI change to zero the loyalty points balance for all users prior to activation.
|
Soft launch | NOT STARTED | Enabling loyalty (see detailed steps below) without announcements and CRM communications. The purpose would be to limit initial traffic - if any issues occur, they can be fixed with less impact to guests. Timeframe: 4 weeks for soft launch phase. We are aiming to Soft Launch on April 2nd, 2024 |
Go Live | NOT STARTED | The following changes must happen at the same time:

Run script to clear loyalty points of users in the platform for the first time in Production
clear the loyalty account history of all users
create a transaction to ensure the sum of transaction loyalty points equals the user loyalty point balance
All existing users should have 300 loyalty points as initial points balance. The only transaction that should show in the is 300 initial point balance in the loyalty history page.
All new users should have 200 initial loyalty points added to their account.
Run script to clear loyalty points of users in the platform for the second time and right before launch in Production
Test using Snowflake. Query all users to ensure loyalty balance is set to 300 or 200 and loyalty transaction are cleared

Risks
Below we have mapped the potential risks to the BK DE Loyalty Program launch. On the agreed launch date, the table below will guide the Go/No-go decision.
Risk Description | Impact | Likelihood | Mitigation Strategy | Go/No-go Decision | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Less than 80% of franchisees have been onboarded. | High – poor UX, large potential impact on sales since many stores wouldn’t accept offers (high % of market sales). | High – very fragmented franchisee system, slow progress so far. |
| Not launch. Wait until % is reached. |
2 | Forter integration not complete. | Medium – fraud concerns, users could create multiple accounts to abuse initial point balance. | None – integration completed. |
| Launch, enable Forter post-loyalty launch. |
3 | Tillster hasn't complete full integration (i.e. multi-scanning, deposits). | Medium – Reward and Offers cannot be scanned multiple times in the same order in Tillster Kiosks | Low – Tillster has committed to mid December to finish multi-scanning and deposits Dev work |
| Launch, have clear communication in Tillster Kiosks letting users know they can only scan once. Have plan to enable multi-scanning in next couple of weeks |
4 | Ops trainings not complete. | High – Loyalty launch requires a significant change in customer behavior which needs to be supported by stores' team members. | Low – Loyalty flows for stores with loyalty are aligned. Pending alignment on stores w/o loyalty. |
| Not Launch, wait until training is complete. |
5 | Comms not ready. | High – guests might not understand the loyalty program. | Low |
| Not Launch, wait until communications are ready. |
6 | Reporting not ready. | Low – this will not affect the user journey. | Medium – work still ongoing as of end of Nov. Requires coordination with Sotec. |
| Launch. Send data manually until required reports are ready. |
