Loyalty platform comparison
Omniwallet and Wapping both operate in the loyalty and CDP space, so they may look like similar solutions. Loyalty and CDP are two concepts that, on their own, sound the same on both platforms' websites. In reality, the differences in functional scope are very significant. We explain them below, though ideally you should judge for yourself.
The difference in one sentence
Omniwallet's core functionality centers on earning points and redeeming them for different types of rewards. Wapping extends the concept to an ecosystem of services, benefits, and connected experiences that support the customer throughout their entire lifecycle.
From rewarding purchases to building relationships
The value for retailers lies in being able to configure not only points and rewards, but also promotions and other services that truly drive LTV.

Frequently asked questions
Omniwallet's core functionality is built on a points system where points can be redeemed for cashback, gifts, or coupons, with a basic customer profile and basic analytics. Wapping offers a broader set of loyalty features, a powerful promotion engine, and a deeper CDP layer.
Because many users have several email accounts, which makes it harder to manage unified online and offline identities and leads to issues with customers in store and calls to customer support. And since creating a new email account is so easy, users may try to take advantage of new sign-up perks. Both scenarios create duplicates and unreliable data.
Wapping uses the customer's mobile phone as the unique identifier, verifying it at sign-up to create a unique customer identity without merge & curation processes, guaranteeing no duplicates and strict GDPR compliance.
No. Mobile Passes are a good option, but if the business has an APP, customers should be able to identify themselves through it. It's also worth letting customers identify themselves via WhatsApp, since it's so widely used. For businesses with older customers, a physical card is also a worthwhile alternative. The more identification methods you offer, the higher the share of sales attributed to an identified customer. Identification is the foundation of a loyalty program that drives engagement and conversion.
Static QR codes in Mobile Passes, WhatsApp, or an APP can be a security risk if someone copies them and uses them in place of the legitimate customer. That's why Wapping offers single-use dynamic QR codes across all its digital identification methods: Mobile Pass, WhatsApp, and APP.
Because points, cashback, and gifts are reward mechanisms, but not necessarily activation mechanisms. Wapping doesn't just build customer loyalty; it also provides tools to drive sales, steer demand, and execute omnichannel commercial strategies from the same platform.
Wapping processes each customer's active benefits in real time according to the store, items, date, and time, and applies them all at once at checkout, showing them on the final receipt. The Marketing team has full autonomy to launch any promotion, campaign, or loyalty service in minutes and across all channels without any additional configuration in the POS, ERP, or Ecommerce.
