Loopy Loyalty vs FaveCard: The Free Alternative

Who each is best for

Loopy Loyalty (made by PassKit, Inc., with its Stamper app on the App Store since 2014) is a solid, well-established digital stamp-card service. It is simple to use, and its standout strength is connecting to other software: a developer API plus Zapier and Make on every plan. That makes it a strong fit if you are a developer or agency wiring loyalty into other systems.

FaveCard is the better fit for the typical local business, a café, salon, or barbershop, that wants to run a loyalty card for free, in its own language, without writing a line of code. Customers keep the card on their phone: as a browser card on the Free plan, and as an Apple or Google Wallet pass on paid plans.

Where FaveCard pulls ahead

1. A genuinely free plan, not a 15-day trial

This is the real difference. Loopy Loyalty has no free plan; after a 15-day trial it starts at $25/month (Loopy's pricing). FaveCard's free plan runs forever, at no cost, with unlimited customers and a loyalty card your customers keep on their phone, with no app to download. Apple & Google Wallet passes and branding come on a paid plan, and every new account can try them free before paying. See the pricing page for current plans.

2. Make the card your own, free

You can start shaping your FaveCard card without paying. The free plan gives you one card with a full choice of colours and the reward setup you want. Your own logo, a banner under the card, and custom images are part of the Pro branding, so you can take it further when you are ready. Loopy's entry $25 Starter plan includes your logo, colours and a background image on one card design, and custom label text starts on its $69 Growth plan. The difference is that on FaveCard the first card costs nothing.

3. Several rewards on one card, free

FaveCard supports different stamp styles, multiple rewards, and different reward thresholds on a single card, all on the free plan. Loopy Loyalty also offers single and multi-reward cards, on every paid plan. Neither is a points programme: Loopy's own help centre points businesses that want points or tiers to its sister service, PassKit.

4. Built for more than one market: 19 languages

FaveCard runs in 19 languages: the dashboard, the staff app, e-mails and Wallet passes. The business page where customers join runs in 32. Loopy's Stamper app lists 14 languages on its App Store listing.

5. Turn visits into reviews and repeat visits

On the Business plan, FaveCard adds one-tap Google review requests (asked of every customer), your own short customer surveys, automated birthday offers that bring customers back on their own, and promotion campaigns pushed straight to the wallet card. Loopy's pricing page does not list review requests or birthday offers; it does include unlimited push messages and location-based (geo-fenced) messages on every plan.

6. Stamp from your phone, free

Stamping should be instant at the counter. On FaveCard's free plan, the owner scans a customer's card and gives a stamp with the FaveCard Biz app (iOS and Android), with no hardware. Customer e-mails and visit history come with Pro, and staff accounts with the Business plan. Loopy's Stamper app does the same job on every Loopy plan, with up to 3 staff logins on Starter, but there is no free plan.

When to choose Loopy Loyalty instead

An honest read, because no loyalty app is right for everyone:

• You need integrations. Loopy's developer API plus Zapier and Make, on every plan, is a real advantage; FaveCard does not offer a public API today.
• You run more than one location. Loopy supports 1 location on Starter, 3 on Growth and 10 on Ultimate; FaveCard runs one location per account today.
• Your staff need their own logins. Every Loopy plan includes Stamper app logins for your staff (3 on Starter, 10 on Growth, 50 on Ultimate). On FaveCard, the Free and Pro plans are owner only, and staff accounts come with the Business plan.
• You are an agency. Loopy runs an affiliate programme, linked from its website.
• You want a long, proven track record on the PassKit wallet stack: Loopy's Stamper app has been on the App Store since 2014.
• You only ever need a single simple stamp card and are happy to pay a flat monthly fee for it.

If none of those apply, and you would rather start free and in your own language, FaveCard is the stronger choice.

How we verified this: We make FaveCard. Loopy Loyalty's plans and what they include were checked on 17 October 2026 on its pricing page, its FAQ, its help centre and the Stamper app's App Store listing. FaveCard's plans were checked against our product on the same day. We checked these sources again on 22 October 2026 and found no change to the facts on this page. The same day we took Loopy Loyalty's business figure from its homepage, in its own words; it does not say whether it counts businesses signed up or active. FaveCard's business numbers come from our own records (FaveCard in numbers): 2,000+ counts the businesses that gave stamps to at least two different customers in the last 30 days (22 September – 21 October 2026), and 80+ the countries where those businesses are based (the country in each business's FaveCard profile; countries, not territories). As of October 2026. Prices and plans change, so check the source before relying on them.
