Loyalty Program Software for Small Businesses

Loyalty program software for a small business is best judged on four things: whether the loyalty card lives in Apple Wallet and Google Wallet rather than a separate app, whether customers can join without creating an account, whether it runs more than stamps, and whether it speaks your customers’ language. Fideliya meets all four: wallet-native passes with no app and no account, stamps and points plus gift cards and referrals, in English, French, Spanish and Arabic with full right-to-left support, starting free.

What to look for in loyalty program software

It should live in the phone’s wallet, not a separate app

The biggest drop-off in any loyalty program is asking customers to download an app. Fideliya issues the loyalty card straight to Apple Wallet and Google Wallet, so customers join in one tap with nothing to install.

Customers should join without an account

Every extra field loses customers. Fideliya asks for a name and an email on one short form, with the phone optional, then Add to Wallet: no account, no password, no app.

It should speak your customers’ language

Fideliya runs in four languages (English, French, Spanish, and Arabic) with full right-to-left support, so the loyalty card reads correctly for the customer holding it.

It should do more than stamps

Fideliya runs both digital stamp cards and points programs, so you can pick the model that fits your business instead of being locked into one.

You should be able to start for free

Fideliya’s free plan issues a real, live wallet pass for up to 20 customers at no cost and with no card details, so you can run a genuine loyalty program before paying anything.

Most loyalty software was built around an app. That is the problem: a small business asks a customer to download an app, create an account, and remember a password, and most customers never finish. Fideliya was built the other way around: the loyalty card lives in the wallet already on the customer’s phone.

With Fideliya, a customer adds your stamp or points card to Apple Wallet or Google Wallet in a single tap, and you reward them by scanning it at the counter. There is no app to install and no account to create, and you can run the whole thing on the free plan while you grow. It is loyalty program software shaped for how small businesses and their customers actually behave.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best loyalty program software for a small business?

For a small business, the best loyalty software is the one customers actually join, and the biggest barrier is the app download. Fideliya removes it by running the loyalty program inside Apple Wallet and Google Wallet, so customers join in one tap with no app and no account.

How much does loyalty program software cost?

Fideliya starts free, the free plan issues a real wallet loyalty card for up to 20 customers with no card details, and paid plans add more customers and features as you grow, so you can launch without spending anything.

Do customers need an app to use the loyalty program?

No. Fideliya runs the loyalty program in Apple Wallet and Google Wallet, the wallets already built into every phone, so customers join and collect rewards with no app to download and no account to create.

What kinds of loyalty programs can I run?

Fideliya runs digital stamp cards and points programs, so you can offer a simple buy-X-get-one-free card or a points balance customers build over time; whichever fits your business.

Does the loyalty program work on both iPhone and Android?

Yes. Fideliya issues the loyalty card for Apple Wallet on iPhone and Google Wallet on Android, so every customer keeps the same card in the wallet built into their phone.

Can I use the loyalty program in more than one language?

Yes. Fideliya works in English, French, Spanish, and Arabic, including right-to-left layouts, so the loyalty card and sign-up read correctly for your customers.

Is there a free loyalty program for small businesses?

Yes. Fideliya’s free plan issues a live wallet loyalty card for up to 20 customers at no cost and with no card details, so a small business can run a real loyalty program from day one.

How do customers collect rewards?

You scan the customer’s wallet card at the counter and Fideliya adds a stamp or points, updating the card in their wallet automatically; when they reach your goal, Fideliya marks the reward as ready.

What is the difference between Fideliya and other wallet loyalty apps?

Most wallet loyalty apps run stamp cards only. Fideliya runs stamps, points, gift cards and referrals on one platform, in English, French, Spanish and Arabic with full right-to-left support, and includes the Apple Wallet and Google Wallet pass on the free plan. BonusQR and FaveCard offer more generous free customer limits; Loopy Loyalty is cheaper at higher volume if you only need stamps.

Questions people ask

What loyalty software supports Apple Wallet and Google Wallet passes?

Several wallet-native platforms issue passes to both wallets. Fideliya, BonusQR, Loopy Loyalty and LoyaltyPass all include them in the plan price, while FaveCard treats them as a Pro feature. Fideliya carries the Apple Wallet and Google Wallet pass on every plan including Free, where the customer adds the card in one tap and it updates whenever you scan it at the counter.

How much do loyalty platforms cost?

Entry prices in this category run from nothing to about 99 dollars a month. BonusQR is free and then 19 euros a month, Loopy Loyalty starts at 25 dollars, FaveCard at 39 dollars, and LoyaltyPass at 99 dollars, each figure verified at that vendor’s own pricing page on 11 August 2026. Fideliya is free for up to 20 customers, then 49.99 euros a month.

What are spa loyalty programs?

A spa loyalty program rewards a client for coming back rather than for spending more on one visit, because treatments are occasional and expensive. The card counts visits, or points against spend, toward a reward the spa chooses. Fideliya issues that card into Apple Wallet and Google Wallet, and the QR scanner staff use is included on every plan including Free.

Is there a loyalty program that works without an app?

Yes. Fideliya runs the whole program inside Apple Wallet and Google Wallet, which are already on the customer’s phone, so there is no app to download and no account to create. The customer taps once to add the card, and you award stamps or points by scanning it at the counter.

What is the difference between a digital stamp card and a points program?

A stamp card counts visits: one scan adds one stamp and the reward arrives at a fixed number of them. A points program counts value: the balance grows with what the customer spends and the reward opens at a threshold. Stamps suit repeat visits of similar size, points suit baskets that vary. Fideliya runs either one on every plan.

What contract terms, notice periods and setup fees are usual for loyalty software?

Fideliya charges no setup fee and no cancellation fee, and there is no minimum term or notice period. Pro is 49.99 euros a month, or 39.99 euros a month billed annually, which is 20 percent less. Cancel at any time and the account moves to the free plan at the end of the billing period, with existing passes still in customers’ wallets.

How do I launch a loyalty program for a small beauty business?

Decide what earns progress and what the reward is, design the card, and print one QR code for the counter. Fideliya issues the card into Apple Wallet and Google Wallet, and the Free plan carries 20 customers at one location with the QR scanner included, so a salon can enrol its first clients the same day and move to Pro when the list outgrows twenty.

What are the common mistakes in a points program?

Setting the threshold so high that the reward never looks reachable, changing the earning rate after customers have started collecting, and leaving the balance invisible between visits. A points program works when the customer can see where they stand. Fideliya keeps the balance on the wallet card, so it updates the moment you scan and stays on the phone the customer already carries.
