The Problem

Most customers visit once β€” then disappear

The difference between a busy local business and a struggling one is usually repeat visits β€” not new customers. Getting someone back for a second and third visit is far cheaper than finding a new customer. But without a loyalty system, there's nothing pulling them back.

  • βœ—Paper punch cards get lost β€” killing the program before it starts
  • βœ—Customers forget you exist between visits
  • βœ—No data on who your loyal customers even are
  • βœ—Competitors with loyalty programs are taking your regulars

Set up in 2 minutes. Runs itself after that.

No hardware. No staff training. Just a QR code and your existing counter.

1

Set up your stamp card

Choose how many stamps equal a reward (e.g. 10 coffees = 1 free). Set your reward text and business name. Done in 2 minutes.

2

Choose your stamp mode

Pick Staff Approval β€” you approve each stamp request live in your dashboard β€” or Counter Code, a rotating 6-digit code displayed at your counter. Both prevent fraud.

3

Print or display your QR

Grovaly generates a unique QR code. Print it on a small card, stick it at your counter, or add it to your receipt. No hardware needed.

4

Customers scan to stamp

Each visit, the customer scans with their phone camera β€” no app download. Their stamp card opens in the browser. They complete the stamp using your chosen mode.

5

Reward drives the return

When they hit their stamp goal, they get a reward notification with a unique code to show you. They redeem it, start over, and come back again.

Fraud Protection

The only loyalty app with built-in fraud prevention

Loopy Loyalty, Stamp Me, and paper punch cards have zero protection against customers stamping without a purchase. Grovaly has two modes.

Staff Approval Mode

Best for cafes, restaurants, salons

Customer scans your QR code and triggers a stamp request. It appears live in your dashboard β€” you approve or decline with one tap. The stamp is only added after you approve.

Staff must be present to approve. Zero chance of remote stamping.

Counter Code Mode

Best for food trucks, markets, busy counters

A rotating 6-digit cryptographic code is displayed at your counter β€” only visible to customers physically present. It changes every 10 minutes, so a code from yesterday is already expired.

Counter Code β€” keep visible at counter

No other SMB loyalty app offers both fraud protection modes. Loopy Loyalty, Stamp Me, Fivestars, and paper cards are all vulnerable to abuse.

Why businesses switch

Grovaly wins on every dimension that matters

Paper cards are free but broken. Standalone loyalty apps are expensive and one-dimensional. Here's how they all compare.

The Grovaly Flywheel

Loyal customers are your best reviewers β€” automate the loop

Loyalty stamps and Google reviews reinforce each other. When a customer earns their reward, they're at peak happiness β€” that's exactly when Grovaly sends a review request. One action, two results: a customer who comes back, and a review that brings someone new.

  • Stamp reward earned β†’ review request sent automatically
  • Happy loyal customers write your 5-star reviews
  • New customers find you via those reviews β†’ join loyalty β†’ loop repeats

Why Grovaly loyalty beats paper cards

Digital stamps that customers actually use β€” paired with the tools that grow your business.

No app download required

Customers scan with any phone camera and their stamp card opens in Safari or Chrome. Zero friction β€” which means 4Γ— more sign-ups than traditional loyalty cards.

Eliminates lost paper cards

Paper punch cards get lost in wallets. Digital stamps are stored on the customer's phone via the browser β€” they never lose their progress.

Real-time member analytics

Your dashboard shows total members, active cards, rewards ready to redeem, and lifetime visits per customer β€” updated live so you always know who your most loyal regulars are.

Paired with review requests

After a customer earns a stamp, Grovaly automatically sends a Google review request. Loyal customers are your happiest β€” they leave your best reviews.

Branded to your business

Your loyalty card shows your business name and reward details. Looks professional on any phone β€” no generic Grovaly branding visible to your customers.

Included in Pro β€” not a separate bill

Most loyalty apps charge $25–$299/mo on top of your existing tools. Grovaly Loyalty is included in Pro alongside review management, AI coach, unified inbox, and 9 other features.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know before launching your loyalty program.

Does the customer need to download an app?

No. Customers scan your QR code with their phone camera and the stamp card opens directly in their browser. No app, no account, no sign-up β€” which is exactly why our sign-up rate is 4Γ— higher than traditional loyalty cards.

What's the difference between Staff Approval and Counter Code stamp modes?

In Staff Approval mode, every customer stamp request appears live in your dashboard β€” you tap Approve or Decline before the stamp is added. In Counter Code mode, a rotating 6-digit cryptographic code is displayed at your counter (changes every 10 minutes). Customers enter it after scanning to earn their stamp. Both modes prevent fraud. Staff Approval works best when someone is always at the counter. Counter Code works for any setup.

Can't customers just screenshot the QR and stamp from home?

No. Scanning the QR code alone does nothing β€” it just opens the stamp card. The customer still needs to either trigger a Staff Approval request (which you approve while they're standing in front of you) or correctly enter the rotating Counter Code, which changes every 10 minutes and is only visible at your physical counter.

Can I customise the stamp goal and reward?

Yes. You choose how many stamps equal a reward β€” for example, 10 coffees = 1 free β€” and you write the reward text yourself. You can update it anytime from your Grovaly dashboard.

Does it work for multiple locations?

Yes. Each location gets its own QR code and stamp card. Your dashboard shows performance per location and combined totals β€” useful if you're running 2 to 20+ sites.

How much does it cost?

Grovaly Loyalty is included in the Pro plan at $79/month β€” alongside review management, AI coach, competitor intelligence, unified inbox, social content, and more. You don't pay separately for loyalty like you would with Loopy Loyalty ($25/mo extra) or Stamp Me ($29/mo extra).

Can I run a loyalty program and a review campaign at the same time?

Absolutely β€” and you should. When a customer earns a stamp, Grovaly automatically sends a review request. Loyal customers are your happiest, which means they write your best reviews. The two tools are designed to work together.
