Shop Verify — Powered by TPG Rewards

Frictionless
Purchase Validation.

No Receipts. No Waiting. Just Scan and Verify.

Shop Verify is TPG's proprietary purchase validation platform. Shoppers receive a unique, serialized digital barcode tied to an offer — scanned at checkout for instant confirmation. No photo uploads. No manual review. No waiting. The purchase validates at the register and the reward fires automatically.

Strategic Advantage

Three reasons brands choose Shop Verify.

Demographic Reach
Traditional receipt programs skew older. Shop Verify captures Gen Z and Millennials who live on their phones but ignore receipt-scanning apps.
Conversion Efficiency
Deal-sensitive shoppers demand speed. Removing the receipt submission step increases sales volume during targeted promotional periods.
Fraud Elimination
Moving from visual inspection to digital serialization. Unlike receipts, which are vulnerable to counterfeiting, Shop Verify uses single-use barcodes that ensure rewards are only granted for genuine purchases.
Consumer Journey

From offer to instant reward in four steps.

The entire experience happens on the consumer's phone. No app download required. No account needed. No receipt.

Shop Verify Consumer Journey: Receive → Shop → Scan → Validate

Barcode delivered via SMS, Email, Social Media, or Shelf QR — scanned at cashier, self-checkout, or Walmart.com

How It Works

Instant POS validation. Automated compliance.

When the barcode is scanned, three checks fire simultaneously at the point of sale — with no cashier intervention required.

First-Party Data

Turning promotions into data assets.

Every Shop Verify redemption is tied to an identified consumer and a specific product, retailer, and timestamp — converting anonymous transactions into actionable intelligence.

Shop Verify First-Party Data

Serialized Tracking

Every barcode is unique. TPG knows exactly which barcode was used, by which consumer, at which store, and when — creating a verified purchase record tied to the individual.

UPC Precision

Redemptions are confirmed at the SKU level — not just at the brand or category level. You know exactly which product drove the purchase, enabling precise optimization across your portfolio.

Retailer Visibility

Performance data is captured at the individual store level — showing which locations, markets, and banners are driving the strongest results and where program adjustments are needed.

Real purchases. Real people. Real data.
Reward Delivery

One validation platform. Endless reward possibilities.

Once the purchase validates, the reward fires automatically. Choose the reward type that best fits your audience, objective, and promotional strategy.
