Piggy on Oliver POS
Piggy's European loyalty and gift-card platform runs at the Oliver POS register through the WooCommerce integration — savings cards, gift cards, and digital stamps unified online and in-store.
How Piggy works with Oliver POS for WooCommerce
Piggy is the Dutch loyalty-and-gift-card platform popular with European retailers and hospitality. It bundles loyalty points (digital stamp cards), gift cards, and email marketing in one platform. Oliver POS opens the WooCommerce checkout in its in-POS browser view with the customer attached, so Piggy recognises the shopper and surfaces their savings card and gift-card balances at the till.
What Piggy does for WooCommerce customers
Piggy is the European loyalty platform that started in coffee shops with digital stamp cards and grew into a full loyalty + gift-card + marketing platform for SMB retail and hospitality across the Netherlands and the wider EU.
How Oliver POS opens it at the register
Oliver POS opens the WooCommerce checkout in its in-POS browser view with the customer attached. Piggy recognises the customer and surfaces both the savings-card balance and any gift-card balances on the account.
Issuing and redeeming at the counter
The cashier can redeem a gift card (by code or barcode), apply savings-card stamps, or top up a balance — all via the in-POS browser view. The closing in-store sale credits new stamps / points per Piggy's rules.
Best fit for retailers who…
Piggy on Oliver POS suits European SMB retailers and hospitality operators — coffee shops, boutiques, specialty food, small chains — particularly Dutch and Benelux brands where Piggy is the dominant SMB loyalty platform.

Common questions about Piggy on Oliver POS
Will Piggy gift cards sold online be redeemable at the Oliver POS register?
Yes. Piggy gift-card balances are stored on the Piggy account and with the WooCommerce customer. Redeeming at the till deducts from the same balance that's used for online purchases.
Does Piggy's email marketing fire on Oliver POS sales?
Yes. Piggy's email triggers (e.g. "send win-back after 30 days of no purchases") evaluate against the customer's full purchase history, which includes Oliver POS sales arriving through the WooCommerce connector.
Does Oliver POS have a partnership with Piggy?
No. Oliver doesn't partner with Piggy or any other loyalty platform. We support Piggy because its WooCommerce plugin already handles points, balances, rewards, and redemptions for your online store. Oliver simply opens that same plugin in an in-POS browser view at the register, with the WooCommerce customer already attached. Your Piggy account, your members, and your rules remain between you and Piggy.
Does Oliver charge extra to use Piggy?
No. You pay Piggy's standard published pricing directly to Piggy. Oliver doesn't add a markup, charge extra fees per member or per redemption, or get in the middle of the customer and the loyalty plugin.
How does Oliver POS open Piggy at the register?
It works the same way as opening a WooCommerce payment gateway. Oliver POS has an in-POS browser view that loads the WooCommerce checkout (or the Piggy customer view, if available) with the shopper's WooCommerce customer ID already attached. Piggy recognises the customer, shows their points balance, available rewards, store credit, or wallet, and the cashier can apply redemptions as part of a normal sale.
Will the cashier see the customer's Piggy balance and points at the register?
Yes. Oliver POS attaches the WooCommerce customer to the in-POS browser session (by email or phone lookup, or by creating a new customer profile). So when the Piggy WooCommerce plugin loads in the browser view, it already knows who the shopper is. The same balances, tiers, and rewards that the customer sees on their website account page are visible to the cashier at the till. This means no separate POS-only loyalty database and no manual ID lookups.
