What is Perkie?
Perkie helps you discover local Kiwi businesses and get something back when you support them. Members can find offers, earn Perkie Points, follow Perkie Tracks, book Perkie Moments, and enter competitions when they are on.
Is Perkie free?
Joining as a member is free. You still pay the business as usual for what you buy. Some competitions use Perkie Points to enter, and Moments use Perkie Points plus a booking fee shown before you confirm.
How do I join?
Create a free Perkie account, or log in if you already have one.
What are Perkie Points?
Perkie Points are Perkie's member points. You can see your balance in your account, including on your Perkie Card. Points can be used to enter competitions and to book Perkie Moments. They are not cash, and you cannot transfer them.
How do I earn points?
The straightforward way is Perkie Spend: upload an eligible NZ receipt and, after review, earn 1 point per $1 of eligible spend. Some businesses give a higher Spend rate. Participating businesses can also add points when they scan your Perkie Card. Activity on Perkie can add points too. There is no single earn rate for every visit.
What is Perkie Spend?
Upload an eligible receipt from a New Zealand business. Perkie reviews it, including with PerkieAI, then awards points for eligible spend. It is not a till scan, and receipts are not approved instantly. Some businesses have an optional Spend code and a higher point rate.
What are Perkie Tracks?
Perkie Tracks is Perkie's digital loyalty card. A business sets a Track, you collect progress when you visit or complete the actions they defined, and you get that Track's reward when you finish it. Stamp counts and rewards are set by the business, not by a universal rule.
What are Perkie Moments?
Businesses can open quieter times as bookable Moments, with a special member deal on that slot. That includes restaurants and cafes, and also salons, services, and other businesses with spare capacity.
What is the Perkie Card?
Your Perkie Card is your member card in the app. It shows your points balance and a member QR / code that participating businesses can scan when you visit. It is not the same as the QR used for a specific offer.
How do offers work?
Some businesses put member offers on Perkie. You find them in Discover, then redeem them through Perkie when you visit. Not every listing has an offer, and an offer is not always available.
How do competitions work?
When a competition is open, members can enter from their account. Many competitions use Perkie Points to enter.
Who owns Perkie?
Perkie is 100% New Zealand owned and operated. Perkie is operated by Sell2Cell Limited. Brendan Brink owns Sell2Cell Limited / Perkie and founded Perkie.
