View Customer Insights
To view your Customer Insights:
From your Square Dashboard, navigate to Marketing & Loyalty > Customer directory.
Click Insights > Visits.
The New Vs. Returning Customer Visits graph compares purchases made by first-time customers versus those who have purchased with you in the past. Customers are added to a sale when they pay with a card or you add them manually for cash or other tender sales.
The Visit Frequency graph displays the number of visits customers made to your business during your selected time period. Use this chart to better understand your distribution of customers by visit count, which is a good indicator of overall customer loyalty and retention.
Example: One-time visitors are those who’ve only made one purchase at your business; Two-time visitors are those who’ve only made two purchases (with the same payment card) at your business; and so on.
The Loyalty Visits graph displays the amount of sales you’ve processed over a specific period of time, split between customers who are enrolled in your Loyalty program(s) vs. those who are not.
You can also click View Loyalty Page to get more specific information about these sales, including average customer spend, customer visits, top customers, rewards your customers have redeemed and more.
