If it is on Giftay, it is independent.
Other maps mix in the chains, and the opening times are often wrong. You can walk there and find the place shut.
-
No chains
No franchises. The business has its own owner.
-
Opening times, contact and socials
The person who runs the place keeps them up to date.
-
The same listings on the web
The directory is free. You do not need the app to look.
The paper loyalty card gets left at home.
It is half stamped, in a drawer, and you did not bring it. Giftay keeps the stamps on your phone.
-
Scan the QR
You buy a coffee or a haircut, scan the code at the till, and the stamp is on your phone.
-
They do not need the app first
Shopping with someone who does not have Giftay yet? Their camera opens a claim link. They get the stamp without holding up the queue.
-
A reward or a discount
The stamps add up to a reward or a discount from that place.
I run an independent business.
I know what it is like competing with a chain that has a marketing budget I do not have. I also know the software that charges an independent shop a monthly fee for a stamp card.
