Points customers can turn into vouchers, free shipping or discounts give them a reason to come back. Pacifica Beauty lets customers redeem rewards right in the cart, driving a 47% increase in repeat purchase rates.

Buyer's checklist
Use this checklist in every demo, including ours.
Look for attribution beyond discount code use, and segmentation by tier and member status.
Ask about points approval periods, expiry options, redemption limits and fraud controls.
Check POS, mobile app, wallet pass and Shopify Customer Accounts support.
Count the languages, check currency handling, and ask whether rewards can differ by country.
Ask for the full list of properties and events, not just "we integrate". Check your subscription and helpdesk apps connect too.
Look for a dedicated onboarding manager, plus a loyalty page and Klaviyo flows built for you.
Check G2, Trustpilot and Shopify App Store ratings, and ask for CSAT.
Ask about peak-season uptime, security certification and the largest brands on the platform. Check for order or member caps, and whether you can add volume without switching plans.

Book a demo and see how LoyaltyLion helps Shopify brands turn first-time buyers into loyal, repeat customers.
What is loyalty software?
Loyalty software lets you reward customers for purchases and other actions, like reviews, referrals or store visits. A loyalty platform goes further, with tiers, analytics, integrations and controls to grow returning customer revenue profitably.
How do I choose the best loyalty platform for my Shopify store?
Start with what you need loyalty to do, whether that's proving ROI, selling internationally or rewarding in-store shoppers. Then use our eight-question checklist in every demo.
What's the best loyalty platform for Shopify Plus brands?
We think it's LoyaltyLion. We were the first loyalty platform to partner with Shopify Plus, we're an official launch partner for Customer Accounts, and we're #1 on G2 for mid-market brands.
How hard is it to switch loyalty platforms?
Easy. Your dedicated onboarding manager plans the migration with you, and we build your loyalty page and Klaviyo flows so you launch ready to go.
Will my customers keep their points if I switch?
Yes. We migrate members, points balances and tiers, so your customers pick up where they left off.
Does LoyaltyLion provide onboarding?
Yes! Every customer on a paid plan gets a dedicated onboarding manager who sets your program up perfectly from day one.
Does LoyaltyLion offer global support?
Absolutely! Our onboarding managers, customer success managers and support team are based across multiple continents, which is why we're rated so highly on G2, Google and Trustpilot.
Do I need a developer to work with LoyaltyLion?
Absolutely not! We even build your loyalty page and your Klaviyo flows for you to get you started.
Why doesn't LoyaltyLion offer month-to-month contracts?
We're invested in long-term success and want to work with you for years, not months. It takes time to build, launch, promote and enroll customers into a program that works. Many brands have been with us for over eight years.
Are there extra charges for features?
No. Classic, Advanced and Plus are built around what a business of that size typically needs, and optional add-ons are available without forcing a plan change.
What should a Shopify loyalty app include?
Match features to your goal: points for repeat purchases, referrals for new customers, tiers for retention. Then check it connects to your email platform, proves revenue impact and scales with your order volume.
Do loyalty apps limit orders or members?
Most plans are priced by monthly order volume, so check the caps and what happens when you exceed them. LoyaltyLion's free Small Business plan on Shopify covers up to 400 orders a month, and paid plans scale with you.
Which loyalty features matter most for a new store?
Start with points and an email integration, so customers can earn, redeem and hear about rewards. Add referrals and tiers once you know who your best customers are.
