Gas Station Chain WeChat System

Project Background & Client Needs

The client is a regional gas-station chain group with dozens of stations across multiple cities. Fueling is a high-frequency necessity, yet the group lacked a unified membership system: prices varied by station, discounts ran on paper coupons, and member data sat fragmented in each station's POS. Headquarters could neither run unified campaigns nor build car-owner profiles. They wanted a WeChat official-account system consolidating operations — top-ups, coupons and station navigation in one place.

WeChat Official-Account System Solution Overview

Juhui Software delivered a custom WeChat official-account system for the chain, comprising the official-account H5 service layer, a headquarters operations console and integration interfaces with station POS systems. Drivers become members automatically upon following the account, top up online, check live fuel prices per station and navigate there in one tap. E-coupons are targeted by member profile and redeemed on site by scanning. HQ centrally manages pricing and campaigns across stations, while consumption data flows into member profiles powering precision marketing and analytics.

Core Feature Modules

• Follow-to-join membership — following the account auto-registers members, capturing private-domain users with zero friction.
• Balance top-up system — online top-ups with discounts, balance valid chain-wide and points accruing automatically.
• Live prices & navigation — real-time per-station fuel pricing with one-tap navigation to the nearest station.
• E-coupons — targeted distribution by member profile, redeemed on site by scan with performance tracking.
• Multi-station management — HQ configures pricing, campaigns and permissions across all stations centrally.
• Profiles & reports — visit frequency, fuel preference and average ticket analysis feed business reporting.

Technical Architecture Highlights

The H5 layer integrates deeply with the WeChat Open Platform for follow-to-register, template messages and WeChat Pay acquiring. The balance account uses a double-entry funds ledger with every change audit-trailed. Fuel prices and transactions sync in real time with each station's POS through standard interfaces compatible with different fuel-dispenser and POS brands. Coupon redemption includes an offline-code fallback so stations keep redeeming during outages, auto-reconciling on recovery, and the console enforces a two-level HQ-station permission model.

Launch Results & Data

Since launch, the balance-plus-points membership system has markedly improved car-owner stickiness — top-up members visit more often and spend more per visit than walk-in customers. Centralized pricing and campaign management gave the group true chain-wide operations for the first time, and targeted e-coupon redemption rates far exceeded the old paper coupons. Member profiles helped identify high-value drivers for tailored perks, while the official account's follower base keeps growing — now the group's core private-domain channel for launching non-fuel merchandise.
