DON'T DOWNLOAD THIS APP!! CUSTOMER SERVICE IS GARBAGE AND DISMISSIVE. PREDATORY APP

We've reached out to you directly to better understand your concerns and see how we can help resolve them, and we're currently awaiting your response. We appreciate your feedback and hope to have the opportunity to make things right.
App will not let me access anything other than the set up, which is not what I want to do - can not even access their help. Also, I am not able to uninstall the stupid thing. Terrible experience.
Thanks for your feedback, and we're sorry to hear about your experience. Our team is always happy to help if you run into any issues. You can reach us directly at [email protected] or via live chat within the LoyaltyLion platform, and we’ll be glad to assist. We’ve also reached out to you directly to better understand what’s happening and to help resolve this as quickly as possible.

This apps works great until I noticed that their SDK causing performance throttling. They have added their Font inside the SDK, and this is impacting performance issue. There is an option to that you can disable custom fonts in SDK but it is actually not working. I have address this to support and they told me that this feature is not available for Free users. Basically they are slowing your website if you are not Paid customer. They are misleading their Free tier and false advertise about their Tier features. dissapointed.
Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We’re currently in active conversation with you via support to address the concerns you’ve raised. To clarify, we do not degrade performance for Free plan users in any way. The LoyaltyLion widget is designed to be lightweight and easy to install for free plan businesses starting out, and this is the first report we have received regarding a performance issue related to font loading. We’re exploring options to hide the "disable font" setting that aren’t applicable to the Free plan. We appreciate your feedback and are committed to improving the experience for all merchants. If you have any questions about this, our support team is always happy to help.
Have been using the app for years and was satisfied, however the price increases are outrageous and there's 0 chance that i would pay them $200 a month when we have been on a free plan for ages. The Predatory price increase is insane, time to find a new loyalty program that will be loyal to its users.
Hi Jon. We have reached out directly by email to see how we can help resolve this for you. Our free plan is available for stores processing up to a specific number of orders. It's great to see your store is doing well above the order threshold for our free plan and we're happy to move you on to the right size plan for your requirements, which will also come with additional features to further support your business growth. Please respond to our email so we can help
The customer service once you have the app installed and are paying them the monthly fee is non existent. I joined in October 2023 - they pulled a price of $583 per month out of the air, after having asked me what my monthly turnover and AOV was. Now that they have joined the App Store I see that I am being over charged. Not only that but during the on boarding call I took the advice of their staff member - he forgot some crucial details and I cannot get anyone to fix it. So basically I have sent 10 emails with no response whatsoever and I have to now disable the Loyalty on my business. If they do not respond in the next few hours I am deleting it - even though from previous reviews I have read they make this next to impossible also. So my advice is stick to Smile.io. I wish I had.
Thanks for taking the time to review our product and service. Firstly, I would like to apologise if our service hasn’t met your expectations. I’m aware that our Customer Success Director has reached out regarding your pricing concerns via email. I wanted to address any concerns you have regarding the communication you have received from us. I wanted to highlight that our team have actively responded to your questions and concerns, and are happy to continue to do so, to help resolve any issues you may have. We look forward to continuing to help you.
Very expensive app which does not do justice to the spend. It shows you how much the member spend, but it does not say anything about the costs you are putting in, so you really do not know if it paying off unless you do the detailed calculation yourself. AND; worse of all -it is impossible to cancel! I try to cancel, get a error message on the page in the app several times, contact the support, they say somebody will help you and then you hear nothing more. And the next payment is due. Very little trustworthy, I would even call it a scam. Stay away!
Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. I understand one of our Account Managers is working with your team directly to resolve the issues and support you moving forward. Please let us know if we can support in any other way.
I recently installed the application for a new site. The application has many useful things. But I am hugely disappointed by the fact that if my store does not use a significant circulation language (English, French, Spanish) the program does not offer the possibility to do the translation yourself except for the amount of $10 per month, attention! every month not a single fee! (which would still be easier to accept) but why wouldn't it be free since I still make it and not the support team. You disappointed me badly with this fee! It seems to me that you promote discrimination!
Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. Our Onboarding lead is keen to connect with you regarding your experience so far and has been emailing you to help, but is yet to receive a response. We do use a third party for managing translations within the app, which is why it is a separate fee. If we could do this for free, we absolutely would. We are still keen to help turn your experience around and have a number of options available to you so please do get in touch either in response to our previous emails or at [email protected]
Have been trying to remove app from my store for days now and cancel my subscription. There’s no way to remove the app yourself with out the developer contacting you first . I’ve left several message with the app that I want to cancel my subscription and remove the app from my store but I’m being ignored . This app is very expensive over $400 a month and impossible to remove once installed . Shopify support is no help on this issue either . Please cancel my subscription and remove the app from my store .
Thank you for your review! one of our Key Account Managers will be in touch to assist you with this shortly! As per previous communication - as you are billed via Shopify, this will need to be cancelled with them. Our team will assist you in resolving this! We apologise for any inconvenience experienced.
During the sales process we were contacted on an almost weekly basis to get us to sign up. Since signing up, we've received pretty limited levels of support since the onboarding process was complete. When trying to schedule time for a quick call to walk through things, we get avoided and passed on to other people. Be prepared to figure this all out on your own if you do go ahead with it. We're left pretty disappointed, especially given the cost and will look for alternatives before investing too much more in this.
Sorry to hear your have received a poor experience, I understand our Head Of Onboarding is working with your team directly to resolve the issues and support you moving forward. Please let us know if we can support in any other way!
Lack of customer support. Super slow response time on live chat. Tried to get a hold of someone to help us get set up for a few weeks now. Few calls of mine scheduled on their calendars were cancelled on their end. We just want to cancel and still haven't gotten a hold of anyone. Horrible, just horrible. Yotpo has the same features at half the price. Can't wait to be done with loyaltylion app. Hopefully this negative review gets them to get in contact with me to help with cancellation.
Dear WAMA Underwear, Sorry to hear you have had a bad experience. Our Account Management department have sent a number of calendar invite links to your team to book in some time to discuss the initial upgrade you enquired about and then to discuss the cancelation request logged. I believe someone on your team had originally booked a call in with the outbound sales team (responsible for new customers) but as you are an existing customer - this call needed to happen with the account management team (responsible for existing customers). This is why the scheduled call was cancelled, As highlighted we have sent a number of requests for a call since then. Please respond to our latest email so we can help rectify the issue.
Terrible. My account did not work for 6 months. They never helped and no refund for it. They still have not responded to me.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. I’m sorry to hear that your experience hasn’t met your expectations on this occasion. We are always there to help our customers. I’ve shared this with the team and we will be reaching out to you shortly. Please do reach out [email protected] as well if you need anything further.
Installed the program about 4 months ago, but the feedback from clients is very poor. Contacted the sales rep who sold it to me and asked 2 questions: 1. If we can analyse the bad performance together, but very disappointing I was being told LoyaltyLion doesn't do "performance" calls. This was the same person I spoke to about 40 times before signing up for one year. 2. Asked him how can I cancel my subscription (don't want any unexpected auto-renewals) and again very disappointing I was told I need to contact support. Contacted support few days ago but until now no answer. Find it kind of strange all this companies where you can not actually cancel what you signed for with a click of a button. 3. The widget button covers the call to action on my cart drawer, asked them how can I move the widget up and I was told at the moemnt this is not possible. To sumarize: cancelation policy not very clear, program doesn't perform well and the widget button covers the Checkout button ! Very, very disapointed ! Don't recommend this app !
Thank you for sharing this honest feedback. We apologize as this is not the experience we'd like anyone to have.. Please know that our team is working to better this. Please be on the lookout for an email from our team so we can work to find the best resolution for you!
Do NOT waste your time or money. OR just stick to the FREE version and fully test it for 6 months before upgrading. This company has overcharged me $187 since April, a total of $1683. A refund was finally provided in December, months later. Customers are confused on how to use loyalty points, and the entire program has been a much bigger headache than ever anticipated. They make it seem extremely simple to customize and set up during the sales process, but once you sign the contract, you quickly realize that you will need to hire a web developer to make such customized changes. They will not assist you with the customized changes. After the initial onboarding, you will never hear from support again, regardless what plan you are on. Our plan was $720 a month, complete waste of money. You are only attracting people who want things for FREE. Our loyal customers will be loyal regardless whether they earn points/rewards.
Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. I’m so sorry to hear you had a frustrating experience. We apologize that our service did not meet your expectations. Your comments allow us the opportunity to do better. We have looked into the issue and believe we have a resolve for this isolated incident. We hope that this incident doesn't stop you from giving us another chance. We've located your details and we're getting in touch now to solve any issues you may have.
I have only given 1 star because I can't give zero. I wish my team had done their homework. LL onboarding is absolutely atrocious. I have received better customer service from apps I pay 1/5th of the price for. The features are not flash at all - go to Stamped. We did. I am much happier
I really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with us. I’m sorry to hear that you were dissatisfied with our service and would like to further follow up with you to support your concerns. Thank you for also pointing out the different ways to improve our service in the future. I want to assure you that your constructive feedback does not go unnoticed. It is valuable information for our whole team, so please do not hesitate to reach out with any further comments or questions.
I used this app for about 9 months but the results were not what I expected. In fact I just added two extra costs, one was the cost of the discounts I offered to my customers constantly and the other was the cost of the app. I think that you can offer much more to your customers without the second additional cost, investing in the improvement of the whole customer's experience. In fact, by using an app like Loyalty Lion you don' t increase the loyalty of your customers, but you only attract customers who are only interested in getting rewards. And that is not the definition of loyalty. Finally, while I had already uninstalled the application from my Shopify account, I saw a €10 charge because I had to go to the app page and uncheck the language customisation option which were located in the seventh tab (FOR AN APP I DO NOT USE ANYMORE).
We're very sorry to hear that you didn't get what you expected from the program, we wish you the best with your customer retention strategy going forwards. Regarding your subscription charges, our team did investigate these internally but was unable to find any attributed to your account. If you would like to discuss this further (and any refund), please feel free to reply to our outreach email and we can resolve this shortly.
When Is signed up they said someone will help me install, none of that happened, and the chat is also not very helpful :-( The app itself very good but the support not very!
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are sorry to read this, a member of our Support team has been in touch over email so please check your inbox as we'd love to resolve this
Misleading information on pricing. eg. 'Stores on our free plan can send customized loyalty emails'. This is extremely unhelpful if you are then charging 59$ for this 'enhancement'. Better transparency on pricing before install, please!!
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review! Our free plan allows you to start small with our core features and add individual paid features such as emails only as you need them. We give every store that signs up a free trial so that you have the opportunity to use these features before choosing to add them to your plan. However, being as transparent as possible is really important to us here at LoyaltyLion and so I've passed this really valuable feedback along to our Marketing team to discuss how we can strive to be even more transparent for the future 💫
Terrible support. Constant user issues and no one ever gives me a straight answer or are they even easy to get in touch with. Plus, the integrations they say they have are actually quite limited, and most require additional payment tier to use.
Hi Safari Ltd, A member of our support team has reached out to help - we'd love to resolve these points with you. Thanks
Very expensive. They lock you into a year contract and it's not better than any other loyalty app. The integrations are basic and the support is even worse. Not a terrible app, just not worth the price at all.
Hi Grace Eleyae, Thank you for your review, I am sorry to hear about the trouble you are having. One of our Customer Success team members has reached out to resolve this issue. Kind regards, Caitlin
Messy. Not user friendly. Now I have to delete the app, but the widget is still in my store. Very annoying
Hi there, I'm sorry to hear this, one of our support team members has reached out to help. Kind regards, Caitlin
