New customers for your shop, counted.
Postcards, window vinyl, your Google profile and posts. Every Dept. code entered on your Dept. counter screen is counted. $499 a month, month-to-month. We don't work for chains. We work against them.
What we count
code redemptions
A redemption is a Dept. offer code your staff enter on the Dept. counter screen at the register, once per customer per code. Your own regulars on your imported list never count.
Fewer than 25 Dept. code redemptions in your first 90 days and month 4 is free.
Already use a booking app? Keep it. Dept. Book sits in front and syncs to it.
An example month
- 17 from the postcard code
- 7 from the window QR

Not counted: 9 QR scans that didn't come in, shown as interest. Illustrative example.

Start with Full +Why Dept. exists
- Independents lost 9,500 restaurants last year.
- The 50 biggest chains take 61¢ of every restaurant dollar.
- Private equity is buying local vets, dentists and auto shops.
Dept. exists to arm the other side.
