Comparison
A FaveCard alternative with more than stamps
FaveCard has a free forever plan and sits a dollar below us at entry. It is also a stamp-card product. If you only ever want stamps, that matters; if you want cashback, gifts or tiers, it does not.
- From $15/month
- Native Arabic (RTL)
- Cashback & gift rewards
- 14-day trial, no card
Where Sharaftona differs
Both put a branded card in Apple and Google Wallet. The gap is in what the card can do and what language it speaks.
Five reward mechanics, not one
FaveCard is built around the stamp card — its plans count active stamp cards. Sharaftona runs stamps, points, cashback as spendable balance, a gift catalogue and tiers, all available on the entry plan. A barber may only ever need stamps. A clinic or a car showroom will not.
Wallet passes are not behind a paywall
As of August 2026, FaveCard's free plan issues a web wallet card; Apple and Google Wallet passes start on its $14 Pro plan. Sharaftona issues real Apple and Google Wallet passes on every paid plan from $15. If the wallet pass is the reason you are here, price the tier that actually includes it.
Arabic across the whole product
FaveCard offers a regional price for Jordan, which is more than most, but its interface is published in English. Sharaftona's dashboard, scanner, sign-up page and the card itself run in native Arabic with right-to-left layout.
AI that drafts the campaign
Sharaftona segments your customers daily into VIP, at-risk, new and dormant, and writes the campaign copy in Arabic and English. FaveCard offers campaigns and win-back on its $29 Business plan; the drafting is where Sharaftona goes further.

Which one should you actually choose?
This comes down to one question: will stamps be enough forever?
FaveCard is a tidy product with an unusually honest free tier and regional pricing that includes this part of the world. At $14 for wallet passes it is a dollar under us. On price alone there is nothing in it.
The difference is scope.
If stamps are all you need, FaveCard is fine
Buy nine coffees, get the tenth free. That mechanic has worked for decades and FaveCard does it cleanly, with unlimited customers and a free plan you can test with before paying anything.
We would rather point you at the right tool than win an argument. For a single café that wants a stamp card and nothing else, the gap between these two products is small.
If you might want cashback, gifts or tiers, it is not close
Stamps suit low-ticket, high-frequency businesses. They suit a clinic, a salon selling packages, or a shop with a wide price range far less — there, a percentage back or a points balance is what actually changes behaviour.
Sharaftona gives you all five mechanics on the entry plan, so you can change your mind after launch without changing platform. That is worth more than the dollar difference if you are not certain yet.
And then there is the language
FaveCard prices regionally, including for Jordan, which suggests it wants customers here. But pricing in a region is not the same as operating in its language.
Sharaftona is Arabic end to end. If your staff and your customers are Arabic speakers, that is not a preference, it is whether the thing gets used.
Questions
- By a dollar at entry — $14 against $15 as published in August 2026 — and it has a free forever plan we do not match. But its free plan does not include Apple and Google Wallet passes, so compare the tier that has what you need.
