Ranking by business · Restaurants · Oct 10, 2026

Best loyalty card app for restaurants. One location or five.

For a restaurant: Almendro, 92/100 weighted. Then Boomerangme (76) and Yollty (55).

The card competes with the bill, the tip and the rush. And there's usually a second location in the plan.

We re-weighted for locations and price as you grow.

What's different in a restaurant?

  • Who stamps: server or register.
  • Frequency: 1–3 times a month.
  • Rewards by visit or by spend.
  • The entry plan breaks at location two.

Opinion: the app is rarely the big cost. The reward is. What matters is how many customers actually save the card. No app wins that.
