SpenVest vs The Stampit

SpenVest connects eligible restaurant sales to digital rewards while letting businesses keep their existing POS. Its Rewards Engine supports points, stamps, store value credit, cashback, reward thresholds, campaigns, bonus rules, redemption authorisations and refund reversals. A merchant dashboard shows reward members, recent activity and redemption history. Square supports sales, refunds and product catalogue data; Shopify POS and Clover support sales and refunds. Merchants can also send authenticated sale and refund events through the API, with signed webhooks for connected workflows. Eligible products can use an online catalogue and checkout for click and collect or local delivery. Payments are processed by the merchant's connected payment provider and paid to a configured merchant-owned account; SpenVest says it does not hold sales revenue. The company says it is built for Australian independent businesses and that coverage of participating merchants is expanding across Australia. Its free Connect plan supports one location but does not calculate rewards. The Rewards Engine costs $39 a month, billed monthly per location and excluding GST. The listed platforms include Android, iOS, web and API.

The Stampit is a digital loyalty-card service for cafés, restaurants, and pubs. Customers collect stamps with a tap in the app instead of carrying paper cards, while businesses operate the program through a secure dashboard in any modern browser. Merchants can create Magic Codes for online and takeaway orders, including batches of unique codes sent physically or digitally. Campaigns can target customer groups by behaviour, use custom rewards, and schedule offers. Insights reports stamps issued, repeat-visit frequency, reward redemptions, and customer engagement in real time. Customers can pre-pay for treats, redeem vouchers in-store, or gift them by phone number. The maker says no complex technology or integrations are required, and rewards can be validated without Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. Android, iOS, and web access are supported. Basic costs £24.99 per month, Growth £34.99 per month, and Advanced £54.99 per month; each plan covers one location.
