Looking for a Stamp Me alternative?

When you should stay with Stamp Me

If your programme is working, stay. Switching costs you re-enrolment of your entire customer base, and that cost is almost always underestimated. Stamp Me is a capable product, and these are real reasons to keep it:

• You want gamification features such as scratch-and-win
• You run a high-volume site where dedicated stamping hardware helps
• You want to read many published case studies before deciding

When an alternative makes sense

The reasons to move are operational rather than cosmetic:

• You want the simplest possible flow that staff cannot get wrong
• You would rather not buy or maintain any hardware
• You need Arabic, French or English
• You are optimising for enrolment rate above feature count

What switching costs

Your existing customers have to be re-enrolled. Wallet cards are signed with a certificate belonging to the platform that issued them and cannot be transferred to another provider. This is a property of how Apple and Google secure cards, not a restriction any vendor chose.

Plan for a transition period where you run both systems, enrol new customers on the new one, and migrate regulars as they come in. For most independent businesses that covers the majority of active customers in six to eight weeks.

How Loonine differs

Stamp Me has more features than Loonine: gamified rewards, physical stamping hardware, and an unusually large library of published case studies. If you want a broad toolkit and are prepared to configure it, Stamp Me gives you more surface area. Loonine does fewer things and optimises hard for speed at the counter.
