PayPoint data shows retailers have earned a combined £100,000 through the Retailer Rewards programme since April

The programme enables brands to engage and incentivise independent retailers, helping brand partners gain valuable visibility at store level

08 September 2026: PayPoint has today released data showing that independent retailers across its network have earned a combined £100,000 through its Retailer Rewards programme since April, highlighting the growing opportunity for stores to unlock additional value through brand-led reward campaigns.

The Retailer Rewards programme was launched to enable brands to build stronger connections with independent retailers by rewarding stores for stocking and engaging with campaigns in order to give brand partners valuable visibility of what is happening at store level.

The programme is available through PayPoint One and PayPoint Mini devices and since launch, PayPoint has partnered with leading brands including Reign Storm, Hershey’s and Crumpton Oaks.

Ben Ford, Retailer Network and Operational Excellence Director at PayPoint, said: “Retailer Rewards was launched this year to help brands better understand what's happening at store level, whilst providing convenience retailers with another simple yet effective way to generate value for their business."

"We're delighted that retailers have already earned a share of more than £100,000 since April, but our data shows there's a significant opportunity for more stores to benefit. Many retailers are incredibly busy, so it's understandable that opportunities can be missed, but even a quick check of the platform can unlock rewards that support day-to-day business costs."
