VAT for unlimited customers and notifications, with no annual commitment. A small chain or a shop that needs staff accounts and exports should pick Loopy; an independent coffee shop, barber or bakery on a tight budget, nacard.

Same scope on both sides: one shop, one stamp card, unlimited customers, unlimited push notifications.
| Per month | Over 12 months | |
|---|---|---|
| nacard Pro (monthly, no commitment) | €9.99 excl. VAT | €119.88 excl. VAT |
| Loopy Loyalty Starter, billed monthly | $25 | $300 |
| Loopy Loyalty Starter, billed annually | $250 |
The two are billed in different currencies, so here is the honest way to read it: for nacard Pro to cost more than Loopy Starter on annual billing, one euro would have to be worth more than $2.08 ($250 ÷ €119.88). On monthly billing, more than $2.50. In both cases nacard Pro costs less at any realistic exchange rate. Loopy Starter does include things nacard Pro doesn't (3 staff logins, data export), so the gap is the price of those features.
And if you only want to test a wallet card on your regulars first, nacard Starter is free with no time limit for 10 customers, where Loopy offers a 15-day trial.
nacard is a young product, published by MADRA SAS in Paris. Prices are in euros. The merchant app (iPhone and Android) is in French for now: English, Spanish, German and Portuguese versions are ready and will ship once the app is out on the App Store and Google Play; until then, we set up your card with you by email. Your customers already get an English sign-up page and card. SMS campaigns only reach French numbers for now (wallet notifications work in every country). No till integration, no multi-location management, no separate staff logins and no self-serve customer export yet.
Switching later? On Loopy's own FAQ, cancelling schedules your cards for deletion at the end of the billing period, so plan a short overlap: put the new QR code on the counter first, then cancel. Whatever you pick, try it on real customers before committing. See nacard's pricing.
