Cardly is a complete PHP loyalty card system designed for small businesses that want to offer digital reward cards to their customers.

The system allows customers to register their loyalty card, check their stamp progress, generate a temporary QR code, and redeem rewards when the required number of stamps is completed.

Administrators can manage customers, scan QR codes, add stamps, redeem rewards, view reports, manage system settings and control the loyalty process from a responsive web panel.

Cardly is built with PHP MVC, MySQL, Bootstrap, JavaScript and a clean folder structure. It includes installation documentation, administrator documentation and a ready-to-import database file.

It is suitable for restaurants, cafes, food businesses, beauty salons, retail stores, service businesses and any company that wants to manage a simple digital loyalty program.
