- 2.Your loyalty model is straightforward — stamps, points, cashback or a membership card with statuses
- 3.You have fewer than 200-500 customers and want a flat fee that doesn't scale with locations
- 4.Your budget is capped at €10/month — Passtastic starts at €36/month
- 5.You're EU-based and care about confirmed EU/GDPR data hosting
Choose Passtastic if...
- 1.You need 6 loyalty mechanics in one tool (stamps, points, VIP, coupons, membership, simple)
- 2.Your volume is high (thousands of customers) and a per-site flat fee is more economical than per-customer pricing
A note on transparency
Passtastic is genuinely more feature-rich than Quardy on card types: six vs four, including coupons and memberships. Its per-site pricing also scales to any number of locations.
Quardy targets the independent merchant. €9.99/month flat for unlimited customers makes sense for a single shop. With 2 or 3 shops, the Team plan (€24.99/month) puts them all in one program: one card valid everywhere, a team with three roles (owner, manager, staff member) and stats by shop. Passtastic's Multi-Location plan costs $99/month (~€92) for 3 sites. From 4 shops, the Quardy Business plan costs €15 per location per month.
Frequently asked questions
What's the main difference between Quardy and Passtastic?
Pricing model and feature breadth. Quardy charges €9.99/month per business with unlimited customers and 4 loyalty mechanics, including a membership card with statuses. Passtastic charges $39/month per site (€36) with 6 mechanics, including VIP tiers, coupons and memberships. For a single shop, and for up to 3 shops on the Team plan (€24.99/month), Quardy is cheaper. For coupon programs, Passtastic is better suited.
Is Quardy a real alternative to Passtastic?
For independent shops: yes, at a fraction of the price (€9.99 vs €36 for one shop, €24.99 vs about €92 for three shops with Quardy Team). For merchants who need coupons and memberships, Passtastic remains more appropriate.
Can Quardy manage several shops?
Yes, with the Team plan at €24.99/month: up to 3 shops in one program, your main shop included, with no extra charge per shop. The customer has one card, valid in all of them. Your employees stamp from their own phone, as a manager or a staff member, and you follow visits shop by shop. From 4 shops, see the Quardy Business plan (€15 per location per month).
Can I migrate from Passtastic to Quardy?
Yes. Export your customers from Passtastic (CSV), create your business on Quardy and import the file in the app: each customer keeps their stamps, points or cashback balance. On their next visit, find them in the app and show them their card's QR code: they add it to their Wallet, balance included. This typically happens when a single-shop merchant downsizes from Passtastic's site-based pricing to Quardy's simpler flat fee.
Does Quardy offer a VIP tier program?
Yes, with its membership card. Customers move up a status (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, or names of your choice, from 2 to 6) based on what they spend in the calendar year, and you set the perks of each status. At the counter, you just enter the purchase amount. The card in Apple Wallet or Google Wallet shows the status, the year's spend and the next status. It is included on every Quardy plan, including the free one.
Does Passtastic include gift cards?
Its six programme types cover stamps, points, VIP tiers, coupons, membership and simple loyalty — none of them prepaid. Quardy includes prepaid gift cards from the Pro plan (€9.99/month): free amount, chosen validity, emailed to the recipient who adds it to Apple Wallet or Google Wallet, then debited visit after visit with the balance updating on its own.
