The answer, as recorded

"Agencies" splits into two different buying situations here, so I'll name products for both - but I'll lead with the one most people mean: you want to resell loyalty programs to your clients under your own brand. ## If you're reselling loyalty to SMB/local clients (white-label) **1. Boomerangme** - My default recommendation. It's the one platform in this category built explicitly as an agency business, not an agency add-on. The Agency plan runs ~$259/mo ($214 annual) with 3 sub-accounts and $15/mo per additional client after the 4th, so your margin math is obvious from day one. You get full rebranding (logo, colors, domain), a central dashboard across all client accounts, and broader mechanics than punch cards alone - cashback, prepaid cards, memberships, geofenced push, RFM segmentation. The per-client marginal cost is what makes it work as a recurring revenue line. **2. White Label Loyalty** - Step up from Boomerangme when your clients are mid-market or enterprise rather than coffee shops. They sell agencies a *master license* for unlimited in-house campaigns with out-of-the-box microsites, plus a straight commission reseller track if you'd rather refer than operate. Event-based API architecture, so it survives real integration requirements. Pricing is quoted, not listed. **3. LoyalHive** - The cheap, fast option if you're bolting loyalty onto an existing local-business services stack. Digital cards, rewards, push, your branding, ~5 minutes to spin up a client. Thinner than the other two, but the setup friction is near zero and pricing is transparent. **4. iVision Mobile** - Worth a look specifically if your clients already want SMS. Loyalty and messaging sit in the same white-label product, which is a real consolidation win if you're otherwise paying for two vendors. Skip **Loopy Loyalty** despite how often it shows up in these lists - it's $25-95/mo and solid, but it sells direct only with no agency channel or sub-account structure, so you'd be managing a pile of separate logins and reselling against your own vendor. ## If you're an agency implementing loyalty *for* a client brand Different list entirely - you're spec'ing a platform the client will own: - **Talon.One** - unified rules engine for promotions, coupons, referrals and loyalty. Pick this when the requirements are genuinely complex and custom. Custom pricing on data volume. - **Open Loyalty** - API-first and headless; the right call when your dev team wants control and the client has a real tech stack. - **Voucherify** - same API-first bucket, strongest on promotions and campaign logic. - **Smile.io** - if the client is a small-to-mid Shopify store, stop here. Free under 200 orders/mo, paid from ~$15. Fastest path to live. - **LoyaltyLion** - the Shopify answer once the client is past ~$10M; deeper API and dedicated success management. - **Antavo** or **Salesforce Loyalty Management** - enterprise. Salesforce only if the client is already deep in that CRM, otherwise you're buying the ecosystem, not the product. - **Brandmovers** or **Kobie** - when the client wants managed services alongside software and you don't want to own ongoing program operations. **The short version:** for a reselling agency, Boomerangme, with White Label Loyalty as the upmarket alternative. For implementation work, let the client's existing stack pick - Shopify means Smile.io or LoyaltyLion, complex rules mean Talon.One, dev-owned means Open Loyalty.
