Our story

BrewBank was born from a shared vision between two next-door neighbors: Mitch and Josh. Being a former café owner, Mitch had experienced the downside of traditional loyalty cards – they offer very little real value to the café, they’re always getting lost, and can be easily manipulated… We knew there had to be a better way.

After some brainstorming, we came up with the idea to flip the loyalty card system – offering customers their loyalty discount upfront, as a reward for purchasing their coffees in bulk. This would secure a bigger discount for customers, while also helping cafés with their cash flow and customer retention. Having the final vision of a mobile app, we decided to test our prepaid concept with a simple paper card system at a handful of local cafés. Within a few weeks, we were already seeing great results, proving that customers were eager for a more seamless way to save on their daily coffee.

The early success with paper cards led us to seeking the help of a local software developer, in an attempt to bring our grand idea to life… After a few months, we had a fully functioning app, however it simply wasn’t up to the standards that we had envisioned.

Destined to provide the most comprehensive platform possible, we decommissioned the original app and sought a new path for its development. Through some of Mitchell’s business contacts, we were introduced to a global software powerhouse – Xentra Solutions. Following a few meetings with their founder/CEO, he immediately recognised BrewBank’s potential for worldwide scale and acquired 10% of the company, joining us as our dedicated development partner. Most recently being awarded as the ‘Best Trusted IT Outsourcing Company’ at the Golden Globe Awards for Business Excellence, Xentra’s credibility in the software space gave us the confidence to push forward stronger than ever.

Now, with a powerful team behind us, our vision is clear: to revolutionise the café industry by making coffee more accessible, rewarding, and frictionless. BrewBank isn’t just about saving money – it’s about elevating the café experience for both customers and businesses, bringing the industry into a new era of connection and convenience.
