Branch location and geofence

Turn branch coordinates into a lock-screen geofence message on Apple Wallet, with a radius from 50 to 500 meters. Growth and Premium only.

Updated 9 September 2026العربية

Once a branch has coordinates set, you can send customers a lock-screen message the moment they're nearby — at no cost to your message balance.

Turn on a geofence

  1. Set the branch's coordinates

    Done from Settings, Branches, if you haven't already.

  2. Go to Notifications, then Location

    This is where geofences are configured.

  3. Turn on the geofence for that branch

    Each branch can have its own geofence.

  4. Write the lock-screen message

    This is what the customer sees when they're nearby.

  5. Set the radius

    Use the slider, from 50 to 500 meters in 50-meter steps. The default is 150 meters.

  6. Save

    The geofence is now live for that branch.

Frequently asked questions

Does a geofence message use up my message balance?

No — geofence messages cost zero message quota, unlike broadcasts and triggers.

Will Android customers get the same lock-screen ping?

Google Wallet has its own proximity logic. The 50 to 500 meter radius setting is specific to Apple Wallet.
