A single iOS + Android container app where cafés, salons and gyms publish their own “unapplets”. Consumers book, pay, earn loyalty points and get rich notifications without juggling dozens of icons.

Why we built it

Small businesses either go without an app or pay for one-off builds that never talk to payments, loyalty or booking tools. Shoppers end up hunting through cluttered home screens and forget the local shops they like. Unapp promised one door to every nearby business.

Consumer App

Discovery, booking, pre-order, pay-at-counter, loyalty, push notifications, promotions.

Drag-and-Drop Builder

Discovery, booking, pre-order, pay-at-counter, loyalty, push notifications, promotions.

40+ Plug-in Modules

Payments, QR, beacons, ticketing, rich notifications, rewards, promotions.

Integration Core

Hooks for OpenTable, Seamless, LevelUp, Mindbody and more.

Approach that mattered to buyers

Outcome first

Publish an unapplet in ≤ 30 minutes and run the stack for < £0.10 per active user.

Modular by design

Each function is a plug-in; businesses enable just what they need.

Native for customers, web for you

Fast iOS + Android front-ends; browser console lets you edit instantly—no app updates.

Location-led engagement

iBeacons and geo triggers to drive context-aware offers straight to the lock screen.

What we saw before Covid-19

Pilot venues in various categories live in New York six weeks after alpha.
First businesses built loyalty campaigns in < 10 minutes; shoppers earned points automatically at checkout.
Users booked appointments, pre-ordered coffee and collected rewards—all inside one app.

Sunset in 2020

Traction stalled when lockdowns closed high-street shops; many prospects either folded or froze spend. The platform was wound down mid-2020.

Lasting takeaway

Unapp showed that SMEs will embrace a shared container if it lets them manage every brick-and-mortar relationship—from booking to payment to loyalty—in one place.

Thinking of a multi-tenant app that scales on modules, not headcount?
