Why does the card update automatically on the customer's phone?

One of the most powerful advantages of Welcome Back is that cards update in real time, without the customer needing to do anything.

When your team registers a transaction with the scanner, the system sends a silent signal to the customer's phone. The phone automatically downloads the updated version of the card and shows the new points balance — all within seconds.

This works for both Apple Wallet and Google Wallet. The customer may receive a notification on their lock screen saying "You earned 15 points at Café del Centro". This real-time experience is what makes customers remember and use their card.
