Purchase earns a punch, no minimum spend required. Limit to one punch per day.

✔️ Punch for Engagement

  • Visit Your Business – Customers stop by your location to learn about what you offer.

  • Meet With a Representative – Example: meet with a credit union staff member to discuss services.

  • Participate in an Activity – Example: the library offers a punch when someone checks out a book (limit one punch per day).

  • Enter a Drawing – Customers enter into a prize drawing organized by your business.

  • Support a Cause – Customers can earn a punch by donating to a cause your business supports (for example: Rib Lake Food pantry).

✔️ Punch with Google Review

  2. Shows proof in person at your location

  3. Earns a punch.

No Storefront? No Problem.
