FaveCard and Fideliya both put a loyalty card into Apple Wallet and Google Wallet without asking the customer to download anything. Both have a free plan. The question is not which one gets a card onto a phone. It is what happens to the program in year two.
What FaveCard does well
They built a good stamp card and they price it honestly. The free plan has no customer limit at all, which is more generous than Fideliya's, and it does not expire. Every new account also gets premium features including wallet passes until the first thirty customers join the card, and any pass issued in that window keeps working permanently. They say plainly that they never revoke them.
Pro is $39 a month, below Fideliya's €49.99. It adds a custom logo, a banner and stamp icons to the card, plus customer messages and fuller analytics. They also run their site in five languages, English, French, Spanish, Arabic and Portuguese, which is one more than Fideliya offers.
If a stamp card is the whole requirement, this comparison has a short answer: FaveCard is cheaper and it does the job.
Most loyalty programs start as a stamp card. Very few stay one.
The ceiling
FaveCard does stamps. Not stamps first, stamps only. There is no points system, no referral program and no gift cards on any plan at any price.
That matters because of what usually happens next. A cafe starts with buy nine get one free, and within a year wants to reward the customer spending forty euros a visit differently from the one spending four. A salon wants existing clients bringing in new ones. A restaurant wants to sell gift cards in December. None of those are exotic requests, and none of them are available from FaveCard.
Fideliya runs stamps, points, referrals and gift cards on one platform. A business can open with a stamp card and add points six months later without changing tools, without losing history, and without asking a single customer to enroll again.
What the card looks like
On FaveCard Pro, card design is a logo, a banner and stamp icons. That covers the basics and for many businesses it is enough.
Fideliya ships 24 designed pass themes, twelve of them available on the free plan, each with its own background, text, accent and label colors built as a set rather than assembled from a color picker. Cover images are available on Pro. The pass sits in a wallet next to boarding passes and bank cards, which is a demanding neighborhood, and it is worth looking like it belongs there.
What each plan actually costs
FaveCard: free forever with unlimited customers and a browser card, wallet passes for the first thirty customers, then $39 a month for wallet passes, branding, customer messages and analytics.
Fideliya: free for 20 customers with stamps or points, wallet passes included, twelve themes and one broadcast a month. Pro at €49.99 raises that to 1,000 customers, three broadcasts a month, the remaining twelve themes, cover images, gift cards, the referral program, CSV export and four team seats. Webhooks and API access sit on Enterprise at €99.99.
Read plainly: FaveCard is cheaper at every comparable point. Fideliya costs more and does four things instead of one.
Who should choose which
Choose FaveCard if stamps are the only mechanic you will ever need, if price is the binding constraint, if an unlimited free customer count matters more than anything else here, or if you want the cheapest route to a branded wallet card.
Choose Fideliya if there is any real chance the program grows past stamps into points, referrals or gift cards, or if how the card looks in the wallet is part of how the business presents itself. Both put a card in the wallet. One of them is a stamp card, and the other is a stamp card that can become something else without you starting again.
