The Stamp Me app is a simple and fun passport rewards program ideal for boosting tourism and driving business in communities, allowing local businesses to come together, promote their exclusive offers, and reward local customers.
Typically initiated by local government, tourism boards, trader’s associations and property developers, community rewards programs have increased in popularity following the general decline in footfall at high street stores.
Stamp Me offers a convenient passport-style digital rewards system for local communities. Currently being implemented in countries all over the world including in the US and Australia, Stamp Me’s local passport rewards app can be tailored to meet the unique demands of each local community or organization.

Drive business with a digital rewards app
Following the wide-spread impacts of COVID-19 in 2020, many local governments and councils are looking for ways to encourage patrons to get back out in the world and financially support local businesses to boost the city’s economy. The Stamp Me app allows your organization to partner with small businesses who may have suffered over the last few years.
A digital rewards program is a simple solution for getting more community members ‘out and about’ by rewarding and incentivising wining, dining, and shopping in the local area. We know how important it is to support local businesses.
When implemented and marketed to the community successfully, our digital rewards system can see your local economy thriving in a matter of months.
Say goodbye to the old-school paper punch card
Stamp Me allows you to easily implement a single digital loyalty card for use across multiple different business types. It's more hygienic and secure than paper cards. Customers can earn and keep track of their stamps and rewards directly from their smartphone.

“We switched to Stamp Me from another fidelity app that was very disappointing in service and user friendliness… But not with Stamp Me!!!! They are fantastic and the app is easy and made to measure, just like we need! The whole service team has been very helpful and made sure we were satisfied before launch."

What kind of rewards can we give local consumers?
Generally speaking, local governments will set up a passport-style rewards program with vouchers that need to be used within a specified time frame and in-person, to drive footfall. Typically, rewards are monetary vouchers off (like a $10 voucher), which are valid to claim at any participating vendor. Stamp Me can handle financial reimbursements of any claimed vouchers to vendors for a small fee, or the data can be provided to you to manage reimbursements yourself.
The most common types of rewards offered by local community initiatives will include:
- Free products or services claimed through an in-app voucher
- Discounts on products or services claimed through an in-app voucher
- A discount code to use at an online store, which is emailed (no in-app voucher)
- A digital gift card, which is emailed (no in-app voucher)
- Entry into a prize draw (no in-app voucher)
Are these campaigns long or short term?
How long will it take to set up a community rewards program?
However, bear in mind it will take longer than this for you to onboard and educate participating vendors, and market the loyalty program to the wider community.
