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

  1. Create a points program in Loyaltey so balances carry over one-to-one.
  2. Contact us. We connect your Yotpo Loyalty & Referrals account with your API credentials and run the import with you.
  3. Replace the Yotpo Loyalty & Referrals widget and links with Loyaltey's QR code, wallet card and embed widget.
  4. Ask customers to opt in to messages again, since consent does not transfer.
  5. Cancel Yotpo Loyalty & Referrals after you have checked the imported balances.
