The welcome message reaches their phone with the kids' workshop at 3 p.m., the car's spot is saved in the app, and the toy store's coupon is already in the app. At 6 p.m., the route leads them back to the car. Your shopping mall's own iPhone and Android app, made without code: the store directory and maps, opening hours and special openings, coupons and the mall's loyalty card, events, a message on arrival and a parking spot found again.

Before leaving the car, the visitor saves the spot in one tap. [See Geofencing](/extensions/geofencing/) ### Wednesday: a store opens The new store's page joins the directory, a banner announces it in the app, and its first 200 welcome coupons are gone within hours. That evening, the mall team sees how many were used at the register. [See Couponing](/extensions/couponing/) ### December: late-night shopping Openings until 9 p.m. and the holiday Sundays are in the calendar. On the day of each one, an automatic push reminds visitors, who add it to their phone's calendar. [See Automatic push](/extensions/scheduled-push/) ## Three days at the mall What a visitor sees on their phone, and what the mall team set up in the back office. [Start for free](https://www.goodbarber.com/create/) ## The mall's app, set up in three steps The mall's marketing team prepares it in the back office, with no developer. 1. 1 ### Directory and services One page per store, sorted by category, with its level, opening hours and phone number; floor plans as images; the parking lots, entrances and mall services, from the baby room to lost and found. Search finds a store by typing its name. 2. 2 ### Offers and loyalty Coupons in each store's name, with dates and quantities. A mall-wide loyalty card, stamped with the QR code placed at participating stores' registers or by the visit itself, once a day, inside the mall's zone. Membership levels for regulars. 3. 3 ### Messages Geofencing at the parking entrances, iBeacons near the food court or the movie theater, automatic push for events and notifications scheduled in local time for the sales. Next, the app goes into both stores, Apple and Google, bearing the mall's name; our team can handle publishing. ## The mall's app, its website or its social media? Three channels the mall already runs or can open, and what each one does for a visitor. | | The mall's app | The mall's website | Social media | | ------------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------- | ------------------------ | | A message on reaching the parking lot | ✓ Yes, with Geofencing | No | No | | Store coupons, saved for later | ✓ Yes, in the visitor's account | Shown, not tracked | Posted, soon buried | | One loyalty card for the whole mall | ✓ Yes, stamped at the register or on a visit | No | No | | Where the car is parked | ✓ Yes, saved in one tap | No | No | | Sunday and holiday hours | ✓ Yes, with a notification the day before | Yes, if people look for them | Up to the algorithm | | The mall's name on the phone's home screen | ✓ Yes, it's your app | No | No, among other accounts | ## What your visitors find in the app ### The stores A [page](/extensions/cms-article/) for every store and restaurant, with the level, opening hours and a call button. ### Map and access Parking lots, entrances and bus stops on a [map](/extensions/cms-map/), with directions to the mall. ### Today's offers Store [coupons](/extensions/couponing/), sorted by category, to save or use right away. ### The mall's loyalty card One shared [card](/extensions/loyalty-card/), rewards set by the mall and a welcome message for new members. ### Events Workshops, book signings and late openings in the [calendar](/extensions/cms-agenda/), with where they happen in the mall. ### The parking spot [Find my car](/extensions/parking-memory/) keeps the position on the phone and leads the visitor back to the car. ### Messages on site One message at the entrance with [Geofencing](/extensions/geofencing/), another near an [iBeacons](/extensions/ibeacons/) beacon. ## What AI does for the mall Three uses: a ready-made parking section, an events program posted by your assistant, store pages translated for visitors from abroad. To create ### Find my car One request to the AI Extension Builder, and the section takes its place in the app's menu: one button saves where the car is on arrival, a second opens the route back. The position stays on the phone, with no account to create. Free To operate ### The weekend program, posted by your assistant “Add Saturday's three workshops to the calendar and schedule the notification for 10 a.m.” Your assistant, Claude or ChatGPT, works through the app's MCP: it creates the events and prepares the notification, which your team approves before it goes out. Included To translate ### Store pages for visitors from abroad In the CMS, the AI Assistant translates a store's page or the season's opening hours for tourists, and the team reviews each language before it goes live.

Regional mall, shopping arcade or outlet village: [create your mall's app](/create/). **### Do visitors need an account?** Only to save coupons and collect points on the mall's card: both go through an account. The directory, floor plans, calendar and opening hours can stay open to everyone: you choose which sections are public, and signing in stays optional for the rest. **### How does the mall's loyalty card work?** You print the mall's QR code from the back office, and each participating store places it at its register: the visitor scans it and earns a point. You can also award a point per visit, earned inside the mall's zone, with a minimum delay between two points. Membership levels reward the most loyal visitors. **### How does a message reach visitors at the parking entrance?** Through Geofencing in the iPhone and Android apps: draw a zone around each entrance, choose the moment, on entering, on leaving or after a few minutes on site, and limit sending to opening hours. Three zones are included from Premium. **### What are iBeacons for in a mall?** Talking to visitors near a specific spot: the movie theater entrance, the food court, an event. The beacon is bought from a manufacturer, Kontakt is recommended; when a visitor uses the app nearby, they get your message, at the distance you set. **### Can stores post in the app?** Yes, with back office access limited to one section, such as new arrivals; a “not published” status lets your team review before anything goes live. Premium allows three team members, Pro has no limit. Coupons are created by the mall team, under each store's name and location. **### How do visitors find a store?** The app's search finds a store by name, and its page gives the level and the nearest entrance. Floor plans, posted as images, complement the map of parking lots and access points. **### Can the mall promote a store in the app?** Yes: the internal ad server runs banners and interstitials managed from the back office, for an opening, a store anniversary or a sales week. **### How do visitors install the app?** The app's QR code, on posters at the entrances, at the registers or on parking tickets, opens the phone's app store, iPhone or Android. A welcome coupon gives people a reason to install it right away. **### How much does a shopping mall app cost?** The price of Premium with three options, Authentication, Couponing and the Loyalty card, or the price of Pro, which includes Authentication and opens the back office to your whole team. Amounts in your currency appear in the pricing box above; every plan is on the [pricing page](/pricing/). With GoodBarber, your shopping mall welcomes visitors from the parking lot, showcases its stores and brings people back An app in the mall's name, on your visitors' phones: store offers, events, the loyalty card and where they parked.
