BonusQR: Buy vs Skip (White-Label Loyalty for Local SMB Clients)
IF your agency already serves local businesses (cafes, salons, gyms, retail) that need a retention program but have no POS system, THEN BonusQR's Free 0 € tier lets you pilot a stamp-card or points scheme at zero software cost and upgrade to Basic 19 €/mo or Premium 69 €/mo as the client's visit volume grows. IF you intend to resell loyalty as a recurring retainer under your own brand, THEN budget the white-label add-on at 690 € one-time setup plus 69 € monthly on top of the base plan, because that fee sits outside the Free, Basic, and Premium tiers and directly compresses margin on a fixed-fee retainer.

BonusQR: Buy vs Skip (White-Label Loyalty for Local SMB Clients)
“IF your agency already serves local businesses (cafes, salons, gyms, retail) that need a retention program but have no POS system, THEN BonusQR's Free 0 € tier lets you pilot a stamp-card or points scheme at zero software cost and upgrade to Basic 19 €/mo or Premium 69 €/mo as the client's visit volume grows.

- Your client roster is dominated by local service businesses with no POS integration, so BonusQR's QR-scan join flow removes the hardware dependency that blocks most loyalty rollouts.
- You want to test the offer before committing budget: the Free 0 € tier supports 7 loyalty schemes, unlimited customers and visits, and Google and Apple Wallet integration.
- Clients ask for measurable retention proof, and BonusQR's visit history, redemption stats, and Google Maps review collection give you monthly reporting material for the retainer.
- You plan to productize loyalty as a standalone offer (for example a starter package at roughly $299/mo covering 8h setup and 2h/mo management) rather than bundling it into a broader marketing scope.
- Your delivery team is small and non-technical: staff access tiers on Basic 19 €/mo (5 special employee logins plus 1 manager) let front-of-house staff scan without admin rights.
- Your clients run on POS systems and expect loyalty to sync with transaction data, since BonusQR is built specifically to operate without POS integration.
- You need loyalty as a bundled feature inside an existing lifecycle marketing stack (Customer.io, Iterable, or Stamped), where a separate QR platform adds another vendor and another login for the client.
- The white-label math does not work at your retainer size: 690 € one-time plus 69 € monthly on top of the base plan can exceed the margin on a small fixed-fee contract.
- Your clients are ecommerce or Shopify-first brands, where Stamped's Shopify-native loyalty and retention tooling fits the sales flow better than a QR scan at a physical counter.
- You cannot commit to ongoing delivery hours, because BonusQR's value depends on monthly scheme monitoring, notification copy, and review follow-up rather than a one-time setup.
