“Stampt revolutionises customer loyalty by making it mobile and social,” says Brian Kelly, Stampt CEO and co-founder. “No more forgotten or lost cards. The cards live on your phone. Its convenient and effective. Merchants benefit from customer interactions and insights that were never before available. They can finally know the effect of their loyalty programs and can interact with their customers. And consumers love to use Stampt so they build loyalty at more places, more often.”

The Stampt system requires users to fire up the app at the outlet in question, and scan their device over a Quick Scan Card which should be available near the tille. The app then counts up visits and purchases, allowing the consumer to redeem free goods after multiple purchases.

Consumers can share their Stampt activity on Facebook and Twitter via the app.
