Initial Experience with Support – Disappointing So Far I just installed the app and reached out for help through the chat box. It’s been over an hour and still no response from the support team. I received an automated message saying someone would reply to my email within 30 minutes, but I’m still waiting with no update. I haven’t had a chance to fully test the app yet, so I will hold off on a final review — but I may consider changing my rating if I receive professional and timely support. However, if this is how the support team handles the very first interaction, it raises serious concerns about the level of support I can expect after activating the app on my store. First impressions matter — and unfortunately, this one has not been great.

Unacceptable Customer Service and Unfair Subscription Policy I am extremely disappointed with the customer service provided by this company. They offer only chat and email support, both of which take hours to receive a response—completely unacceptable for a paid service. What’s even more frustrating is their unfair subscription policy. I paid $50 for a monthly subscription, and after realizing the app didn’t meet my expectations, I canceled the subscription within an hour to avoid being charged for the next cycle. To my surprise, all the paid features were immediately revoked, and I was denied access to the app for the remaining 29 days—despite having already paid for the full month! To make matters worse, Shelby, who appears to be in customer service, seems completely uninterested in providing any real assistance. Why have someone in customer service if they are not willing to do their job? Her lack of concern and unwillingness to help only adds to the frustration of dealing with this company. This practice is unacceptable and misleading. I PAID FOR THE MONTH and should be entitled to use the service for the entire duration, regardless of when I choose to cancel. I expect a resolution to this issue immediately.
Thank you for your feedback here. Someone has reached out to you and we'd love to work together to make sure your experience is as positive as it can be!

App does not support post-purchase upsell points, they do not count towards the total automatically and need to be added manually to every order, what a joke!! Also, the app does not retroactively add points for previous orders a person made before you installed the app.

Malísimo. Su servicio sí da puntos, pero la gente no puede usarlos. Y al abrir el caso con soporte, más de 24 horas y nadie es capaz de responder el chat. Más de 3 días y nadie responde por correo.

It seems ok, but you have to pay to edit ANYTHING pretty much. Its so disappointing trying to find a good loyalty program to use as a small woman owned business just starting out. I feel like there should be a company who caters to small start ups... we cant afford to pay $$$ to offer the BASICS to our customers... I want to love this app... but I cant just yet. The Free version is VERY VERY basic and you cant customize anything but the background color... :( dont yall remember what it was like to be a small a start up? Couldnt yall offer a slightly better cheaper version for someone like us?

it seems like a good app but I just lose a lot of time and Couldn't make it work. it is not showing in my website and I couldn't understand how clients will see their point or redeem them. I also try to reach through the chat but nobody answered. I was willing to pay after all that trouble with the free version.

Positive reviews MUST be fake. This is TERRIBLE! I watched as 6 people signed up for my rewards program yesterday and not one is in my database now. This thing sent them a confirmation email, they went to spam folders. It gives a code that you then have to go back to the website to be added to my reward program. When they clicked the link - it gave them a 404 error. I just checked and it is now NOT LIVE on my website even tho it's showing in the Shopify store. Waste of time. Customer support is useless.
We're really sorry to hear that you've had issues getting your program set up correctly. Our team have reached out to help get this resolved for you, but please let us know if there's anything else we can do to help in the meantime.

This is a useless app even they label it as "FREE" app. You can't even use it in Shopify's Starter Pack. WASTEOF TIME to download and talking to their "so called" advisor. At the end of the day, ZERO accomplishment. I STRONGLY DON'T RECOMMEND THIS APP.
Thank you for the feedback! We've sent an email your way with some additional information to clarify.

This app has been extremely difficult and confusing to setup. I have a designer putting things together and it's taken a long time just to have it look aesthetically pleasing. We added the login block on the loyalty page and then it just randomly show up on our homepage. Trying to get a fast response for needed support is actually impossible. This app costs $200/month and they take hours to respond to customer requests. The fact there's no live chat support for this app is kind of mind blowing when $10/month apps I use have instant support and assistance. I actually wish there were other viable options out there as this app is terrible when you combine what they offer vs what they charge.

Von der Funktionalität ist die App in Ordnung. Leider können nicht alle Inhalte auf Deutsch übersetzt werden, was es uns unmöglich macht die App Blöcke im Checkout oder anderen Bereichen zu nutzen. Einen Stern gibt es deshalb, dass es leider überhaupt keine Möglichkeit gibt zusammen mit dem Support eine Lösung zu finden, auch wenn wir einen Teil der Kosten für die Entwicklung übernehmen würden. Weder eine Lösungsvorschlag noch ein Angebot haben wir auf zweifache Nachfrage erhalten. Das ist sehr schade :(. The functionality of the app is fine. Unfortunately, not all content can be translated into German, which makes it impossible for us to use the app blocks in the checkout or other areas. We give it one star because unfortunately there is no possibility at all to find a solution together with the support, even if we would bear part of the costs for the development. We have received neither a proposed solution nor an offer after two requests. That is a great pity :(.
Hi there! I'm sorry to hear you are experiencing issues with German translations. We've sent you an email your way to help figure this out.

I've been a paid customer for several months, and I am facing a bug where a customer keeps referring themselves and generating discount coupons. The backend shows that their coupon was blocked but in reality it isn't. I brought the issue to the support team and they simply replied "you can block the customer" and they didn't provide me with any answer in regard to why it was happening in the first place. No accountability in the loss of revenue that we faced. Unsubscribing and uninstalling this app right away.
