How Digital Stamp Cards Are Replacing Traditional Loyalty Programs

About The Business

A typical neighborhood coffee shop gets plenty of new customers — but not all of them come back. Most cafes try using paper loyalty cards, but they get lost, forgotten, or left in another wallet.

The Challenge

Before using Stamperly, coffee shops often face these problems:

  • Many customers only visit once.
  • Paper cards are lost or damaged easily.
  • It’s hard to track who earned rewards.
  • Printing new cards costs time and money.

Even when customers love the coffee, they forget the card — and the reward system fails to bring them back.

The Solution

With Stamperly, coffee shop owners can create their own digital stamp card in just a few minutes.

Here’s how it works:

  • Create a card like: “Collect 10 stamps, get 1 free Americano.”
  • Display the QR code at the cashier or on the table.
  • Customers scan after every visit to collect stamps instantly.
  • Once full, they automatically get their free drink.

No printing. No apps. No headache.

  • Works on any smartphone
  • Easy for staff to scan and update
  • Sends promo notifications when needed

The Results

After switching to Stamperly, coffee shops typically see

  • 2× increase in repeat visits within 2 months
  • Lower cost (no printing or card waste)
  • Better tracking of active customers

“It’s so much easier now — customers actually ask for the digital card. We’ve doubled the number of repeat visitors in just a few weeks.”

— Emily Carver, Pilates Instructor
