What WETHANKYOU does

WeThankYou SAS, founded in 2016 and headquartered in Colombes, France, operates a mobile-first SaaS loyalty and customer engagement platform targeted at small and mid-sized merchants across food service, retail, beauty, hospitality, and bars. The core product is a dematerialized loyalty card activated via QR code in roughly two clicks without formal registration, running offline and synchronizing when connectivity returns. The merchant companion (WeThankYou Pro) handles credit/debit of customer cards and client file access from any smartphone or tablet; the consumer app is distributed through Apple App Store and Google Play with Apple Wallet and Google Wallet integrations.

The platform combines points, cashback, and prepaid loyalty formats with viral referrals, automated Google review harvesting (claiming a 95% five-star outcome), push and SMS marketing, customer segmentation, and an integrated Click & Collect ordering module with Stripe payment processing. It is built on AWS cloud infrastructure with a multi-tenant architecture, supports API integrations, and targets a 95% availability SLA with sub-2-second card transaction latency. Data handling is declared with the French CNIL (registration n° 1936178).

Revenue is generated predominantly through monthly SaaS subscriptions: a basic Wallet tier at €49/month with a €149 setup fee, a Premium tier at €59-79/month with no setup fee, and custom-priced Corporate/white-label contracts for franchises and multi-brand groups. Additional revenue streams include per-transaction Click & Collect commissions (3%), additional point-of-sale (€49/month), extra user accounts (€19/month), SMS usage (€0.08/SMS), and physical card production. The company is founder-led (President Didier Barbosa), bootstrapped per available filings, with 1-10 employees, roughly 1,300 active establishments, and approximately 200,000 consumer card activations to date.
