Bobao for shops
The stamp card your regulars can’t lose, and you never pay for
Paper cards get lost in wallets. This one lives on their phone. You set the reward and hand it over at the counter, the way you always have. Here is all of it, in a minute.
Partnering, keeping your listing accurate and running a stamp card cost nothing. First shops get a founding price on Bobao Partner Plus.

Reward: whatever you write, in your own words
Card full. The reward is handed over at your counter, and a fresh card opens.
The difference
What makes Bobao different
One wallet, every shop
A paper card or a per-shop app is one more thing to carry. Bobao holds all of them.
Free, both sides
Shops pay nothing to run a card. Customers pay nothing to hold one.
Every stamp is a real visit
Confirmed at the counter, never from the couch.
How it works
Three steps, no hardware
Open Bobao
A customer opens Bobao on their phone. No app store, no sign-up at your counter, no line held up.
Check in at the counter
They check in with you there. The stamp lands on their card as they watch.
The shop sets the reward
A full card is the reward you wrote, handed over at your counter.
Free, always
What you get, from day one
$0
Free to run, for as long as you like
You choose 4 to 14 stamps, the reward, the card color and the mark on every stamp.
How joining works
You check out once through Stripe; the Free plan is a $0 checkout in your business’s name.
15 min
Every stamp is a real visit
One stamp every 15 minutes per shop. No stamping from the couch.
What a stamp needs
A stamp needs a QR code (or the customer’s code typed in), the phone number a customer added, a staff PIN, or GPS within about 20 meters if you turn it on.
2 of 3
Your customers can ask for you first
People near you can ask for your shop before you join, and the count shows (“2 of 3 asking”).
What Bobao sends you
Bobao emails you at three askers, or 14 days after the first ask, sends one follow-up 14 days later, then stops.
Nearest first
On the map before you join
Your shop is already in the Shops list people open near you, sorted nearest first. Once you partner, your card shows on your listing, and a direct link opens it.
What your listing shows
Your hours, phone, website and amenities, from you once you set them in Shop details. Until then, your listing shows what OpenStreetMap holds, and your own value always wins. Customers can suggest a fix; once you partner, you approve or decline each one.
Any time
Cancel anytime. No contract.
Free to join. Nothing is charged on the Free plan.
Cancel from your plan page. Partner Plus runs to the end of the period you paid for, then your shop is on Free, and every card your customers earned stays theirs.
Why we ask for a bank account
We ask for your business bank account once, through Stripe, to confirm the shop is yours.
