Grinning Cat Books review for Gameball: Loyalty, Points, VIP

Feb. 15, 2023

UPDATE after a year of use: Gameball is a really good app, especially in terms of the large variety of things you can do to let customers earn rewards and the types of campaigns you can run. And, the value cannot be beat, hands down! Frankly, having been in the digital / platform / loyalty / mobile business for decades, it's absolutely absurd how much other service providers charge for VIP tiers, for example, when Gameball outshines them all, overall. I also appreciate that they add new powerful features and functionality regularly. They truly listen to consumers. Clear sign of a winning product development focus. You can run a large number of different campaigns to drive and test consumer loyalty and engagement . . . and you can easily segment your existing and potential consumer base as well. Very nice analytics to boot. A final very important factor -- critical in our view -- is that Gameball's customer support is incredible -- FAR, far better than the vast majority of Shopify apps, to the extent other providers even provide support. This includes at lower and mid level pricing tiers. For example, Dania, from their core team, has been a wonderful partner to work with; other folks as well. I still believe that the nomenclature is a bit too "gamer oriented" vs. general loyalty use -- but, with that said, you can edit everything to suit your needs (as we've done) . . . and with great support in doing so! I highly recommend Gameball if you're looking for a loyalty and/or gamification platform. We tested just about every platform and provider on Shopify and if you're a SMB like us they are tops -- 5 stars hands down!
