Eight loyalty card apps that a coffee shop, salon, barber or bakery in the UK or Ireland can sign up to today, with prices taken from their own pricing pages: what they cost, what they ask of your customers, and who each one suits.
In short. There's no single best app, just the right one for your shop. To start for free: BonusQR, 7Stamp or nacard (up to 10 customers). For a wallet stamp card at a fixed monthly price, with no app for customers: nacard Pro, Loopy Loyalty or 7Stamp. If you already use a Square till: Square Loyalty. For an NFC stamp at the till and a branded customer app: Stamp Me.
Transparency: nacard is our product, a French service. We included it using the same criteria as the others, including where it falls short for a UK shop (prices in euros, merchant app in French for now).
For more on these criteria and the pitfalls to avoid, see our guide to choosing a loyalty card app.
