Customers must download an app
Piggy requires customers to install the Piggy app or a branded app. This creates friction that reduces participation, especially for walk-in customers.

A Simpler Piggy Alternative

Why teams switch
What small businesses find difficult about Piggy
Starts at €40/month — and pricing is opaque
Piggy costs at least €40/month, with higher tiers requiring a sales call. For a simple stamp card, that is significant overhead.
Feature overload for simple needs
Full CRM, marketing automation, gamification, and gift cards are powerful — but overkill when you just need a reliable punch card program.

Step 1

Step 2
Customers scan in the browser
No app download needed. Customers scan the QR with their phone camera and access their card instantly.
Step 3
Track and re-engage automatically
