Switch from Yotpo Loyalty & Referrals to Loyaltey
Yotpo bundles loyalty with reviews, SMS and other e-commerce marketing products. Loyaltey focuses on loyalty for local businesses and connects to separate review and email tools. Loyaltey imports Yotpo Loyalty & Referrals customers and their outstanding points balances through the Yotpo Loyalty & Referrals API, so customers do not start from zero.
Stay with Yotpo Loyalty & Referrals if
- You want loyalty, reviews and SMS marketing from one e-commerce vendor.
Switch to Loyaltey if
- You mainly serve walk-in customers.
- You already use Trustpilot or Lipscore for reviews and Klaviyo, Mailchimp or MailerLite for email.
What moves over
- Customers, matched by email address, so nobody gets a duplicate account.
- Each customer’s outstanding points balance, credited one-to-one, which makes a points program the natural target.
- Enrollment in your Loyaltey program, so customers can keep earning the next day.
An import can be re-run safely: each customer’s balance is credited at most once, so a second run only adds customers who were not imported before.
What does not move over
- Marketing consent. Consent given to another platform does not carry over, so imported customers start opted out until they opt in again.
- Past activity history, achievements and tiers from the old platform.
- Notifications: an import never sends "you earned points" messages to your customers.
Steps
- Create a points program in Loyaltey so balances carry over one-to-one.
- Contact us. We connect your Yotpo Loyalty & Referrals account with your API credentials and run the import with you.
- Replace the Yotpo Loyalty & Referrals widget and links with Loyaltey's QR code, wallet card and embed widget.
- Ask customers to opt in to messages again, since consent does not transfer.
- Cancel Yotpo Loyalty & Referrals after you have checked the imported balances.
