FAQ

Answers to commonly asked questions.
What is restaurant CRM software?

Restaurant CRM software (customer relationship management software) helps operators build stronger guest relationships that drive repeat visits and higher profitability. Unlike generic CRMs, restaurant CRM solutions like Thanx are purpose-built for hospitality. They connect loyalty, digital ordering, and personalized marketing in one platform. Thanx transforms guest data into automated, habit-building campaigns that increase frequency and drive direct digital sales, all without relying on discounts.

Why do restaurants need CRM software?

Most restaurants already collect some guest data; however, it typically covers only a fraction of guests, and what’s captured rarely drives meaningful action. A powerful restaurant CRM solution turns that dormant data into results: recognizing guests across every channel, triggering personalized campaigns automatically, and measuring real impact on frequency and profitability.


Thanx helps operators tackle their biggest challenge (driving frequency profitably) by turning first-time buyers into loyal regulars and protecting margins through precision targeting instead of costly blanket discounts.

How does restaurant CRM software help increase guest frequency?

The best restaurant CRM software doesn’t just manage guest data; it pairs a powerful loyalty engine with intelligent marketing automation to build lasting habits. Thanx automates the guest journey from first purchase to loyalist through personalized campaigns, automations, challenges, and unique rewards that keep guests coming back. 

Brands using Thanx see 3× more first-timers return for a third visit and, on average, grow engaged revenue 5× in their first year. This is clear proof that when CRM and loyalty work together, restaurants can drive repeat behavior and profitable same-store sales.

How do restaurant CRM solutions protect profit margins?

Legacy loyalty systems often rely on deep discounts, which erode margins. Thanx takes a smarter approach, using advanced segmentation and 400+ guest attributes to deliver precision-targeted offers and non-discount rewards. The result: operators average just a 2.4% effective discount rate (vs. ~10% legacy) while still driving higher sales and engagement. Thanx makes loyalty profitable, not promotional.

What makes Thanx different from other restaurant CRM software?

Thanx isn’t another promotions engine or legacy loyalty platform. It’s a next-generation restaurant CRM solution built around one goal: driving frequency profitably. Thanx combines seamless multi-channel enrollment, frictionless digital ordering, and automated personalization at scale, helping brands reach more guests and grow revenue without adding operational overhead. With 223% higher capture rates and 5× engaged revenue growth, Thanx proves that the right CRM and loyalty platform can turn guest data into lasting, profitable relationships.
