Loyalisto and Stamp Me, side by side.
One difference sits underneath every row of the table: where the card ends up. Everything else follows from that.
Stamp Me keeps the card inside its own app, so every customer has to download one. We put the card in the wallet that shipped with the phone.
That is the honest version of the argument. We do not publish an adoption figure for it, because we do not have one we could stand behind. Ask your own counter staff how many people say yes to a download.
Row by row.
Scroll the table sideways on a phone. The first column stays put.

What switching looks like.
- 01
Keep your rules
Whatever you run today, stamps or points, set the same thresholds up here. Nothing about the offer has to change.
- 02
Swap the sign on the counter
Your new QR code replaces the old one. A customer scans it once and the pass is in their wallet, next to their boarding passes.
- 03
Credit what they already hold
Add the stamps or points a regular has earned when they next come in. Your staff can do it from the same phone they scan with.
