About

Gelato Pique

Gelato Pique is a Japanese loungewear brand built on a single idea: roomwear that feels like a wearable dessert. Its signature gelato fabric, soft pastel palette, and playful collaborations with the likes of Peanuts, Star Wars, and Sesame Street have made it a cult favourite for pajamas, robes, and home goods. Gelato Pique USA brings the brand to American shoppers direct-to-consumer through Shopify, with collections for women, men, home, and even pets.

The Challenge

A gift-led, seasonal brand that needed to turn one-off buyers into members

Gelato Pique's loungewear is a natural gift. A large share of first orders arrive around birthdays, holidays, and special occasions, then the buyer disappears until the next one. Launching in the US, the brand needed a loyalty program that felt as considered as the product: something that would recognise its most devoted customers, bring occasional gift-buyers back between occasions, and hold the whole thing together inside a branded account experience rather than a generic widget. It also had to plug straight into Klaviyo so loyalty and email could work as one system.

The Solution

The Pique Club: points, three VIP tiers, gift reminders, and a fully branded member experience

Gelato Pique launched The Pique Club on Mage. Customers earn 10 points for every dollar spent and redeem them for a ladder of coupons, from $5 off at 1,500 points up to $50 off at 8,300. Three VIP tiers, Dreamer, Lover, and VIP Sleeper, multiply earning as members spend more. A fully branded loyalty page and Mage Customer Accounts give members one on-site home for points, rewards, gift reminders, wishlist, orders, and profile, so nobody is ever sent off-site to check an order. Gift Reminders let customers save the dates that matter for the people they love, and Mage sends 15% off ahead of each one. Referrals and a wishlist round out the program, and everything syncs to Klaviyo. After a three-month soft launch, the program went live to the full customer base at the start of September 2026.

  • Points program

    Members earn 10 points per $1 spent, plus bonuses for signing up, following on Instagram, and setting a gift reminder. Points redeem for coupons from $5 off at 1,500 points up to $50 off at 8,300.

  • VIP tiers

    Three tiers, Dreamer, Lover, and VIP Sleeper, with two reasons to climb: a coupon the moment you enter a new tier, and a bigger points multiplier on every order from then on. Reach the top tier and every dollar earns 1.5x points.

  • Gift Reminders

    Customers save up to five recipients and their occasions, earning 50 points per reminder. Ahead of each date, Mage emails them 15% off their gift so it arrives on time.

  • Branded customer accounts

    A slide-out account panel that keeps the whole experience on-site. Members see their points balance, jump to their rewards or gift reminders, browse their wishlist, recently viewed items, and community favourites, grab their refer-a-friend code, check orders, and update their profile, all without ever leaving the store.

  • Fully branded loyalty page

    A Pique Club page designed to match the brand's soft, pastel aesthetic, with earning, tiers, and rewards laid out for members and prospects alike.

  • Refer a friend

    Friends get $30 off their first order of $150 or more, and the referrer earns a $30 coupon once that first purchase goes through, with device and IP fraud protection built in.

  • Wishlist

    Shoppers save the pieces they love and return to them from their account, a natural fit for a brand that gets gifted.

  • Klaviyo integration

    Points, tier, and gift-reminder data flow into Klaviyo so every loyalty moment can trigger an on-brand email.

Gift Reminders

Turning gift-giving into a repeat-purchase engine

Gelato Pique is bought as a gift as often as it is bought for oneself, so the brand made gifting part of the loyalty program. With Mage Gift Reminders, a customer sets gift notifications for the people they shop for and the dates that matter: a partner's birthday, Mother's Day, an anniversary. In the lead-up to each occasion, Mage emails them a reminder with 15% off to spend on that person, timed so the gift arrives on the day. Setting a reminder earns 50 points on the spot, so members have a reason to fill in their calendar the first time they see it. Every reminder is then a scheduled reason to come back, captured at the moment a customer is already thinking about who they buy for. For a brand whose products live in that gift-giving moment, it turns a once-a-year purchase into a calendar of them.
