47 seconds. That's the average from sign-up to a card in the wallet, as published by the platform. No demo to book. No app for the customer. No app for the person stamping.
Now the gaps. No points. No cashback. No referrals. A 7-day trial capped at 20 customers. If your program needs any of those, skip to the alternatives.
