Stamps or points? Choosing the right loyalty model
Stamps reward visits, points reward spend. Here is how to decide which fits your business.

Both models work. The question is what behaviour you want to encourage.
Choose stamps when…
- Purchases are similar in value (a coffee, a wash, a haircut)
- Speed at the counter matters
- You want the simplest possible explanation
Choose points when…
- Order values vary a lot (restaurants, retail)
- You want bigger spenders to progress faster
- You plan several rewards at different levels
Or combine them
Some businesses run a points program for purchases and a separate stamp card for a specific product. Walaora lets customers hold several cards from the same business.
