German term or phrase: Sammelschmuckpass
a certain jeweller issues those Sammelschmuckpässe to his )valued) customers. I assume this to be sort of a card where you get a stamp or similar entrz every time that you buy something. After one reaches a certain amount, there might be a free gift or a discount. Or what else is it and how does one properly call it in English?

(jewelry) rewards card
Explanation:
You're describing a rewards program. Most retailers in the US call them "reward cards", and they have the size of a business/credit card. To make it jewelry-specific you can call it jewelry rewards card. I also heard the term "membership card", which is less specific though.
