Stamps or points? Choosing the right loyalty model

Stamps reward visits, points reward spend. Here is how to decide which fits your business.

· 4 min read · Walaora

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.
