TapMango is widely known for its in-store loyalty platform, but for many businesses, it introduces unnecessary friction—hardware requirements, customer apps, and confusing pricing structures.
OtterText Loyalty is the streamlined alternative: no customer app, no complexity, just automated rewards that increase visits and grow your marketing list—whether you run a retail shop, range, or restaurant.

Why Businesses Are Leaving TapMango Behind
❌ Hardware + App Overload
TapMango often requires a dedicated tablet and encourages customer app downloads. OtterText Loyalty uses your iPad for staff—and sends all rewards via SMS and email, with no customer app needed.
❌ Complexity and Cost
You often need to talk to sales just to get TapMango’s pricing. OtterText makes it simple. Add Loyalty to your plan for just $69/month, or get it included with Pro and Enterprise.
❌ Not Built for Regulated Industries
TapMango doesn’t support businesses in the firearms, tobacco, or alcohol industries. OtterText was built specifically with SHAFT compliance in mind.
