Nescafé Rewards

A rewards and e-commerce app experience for Nescafé’s loyalty programme — from sign-up and receipt-linked rewards to a personalised coffee shop and a points system that turns everyday purchases into real value.

Project Overview

Nescafé wanted every purchase to feel rewarded — whether that’s a jar from the shop shelf or an order placed directly in the app. The goal was one connected loyalty experience that links receipts, purchases and points into a single, simple balance.

I designed the complete journey end-to-end — from sign-up and rewards linking through to personalised product discovery, shop and checkout — built around Nescafé’s bold, familiar brand identity.

Sign Up & Rewards Linking

Every purchase, rewarded.

Getting started takes a few simple steps — creating an account and linking rewards by scanning a receipt or barcode, so points start accumulating from the very first purchase.

Personalised Coffee Quiz

Coffee, the way you like it.

A short preference quiz — how you take your coffee, how intense you like it — turns product discovery into a guided, personal recommendation rather than an open-ended search.

Shop & Checkout

From cart to rewards, in one flow.

A full shop experience sits alongside the rewards programme, so browsing, checking out and earning points all happen without leaving the app.
