Within the Stamp Me App there is a search feature that allows users to find a business’ Stamp Card to join.

To keep results relevant, it uses the device GPS location services to bring up programs within a 100km radius of the users current location. They can scroll the list or use the search bar.

A Stamp Card can be made private (and therefore hidden from the search list) by toggling the Private Card on in the advanced card settings of your Stamp Card or by contacting us.

Private Card can be toggled on under Advanced Card Settings

Why hide a Stamp Card from the App?

There are a few instances when hiding a Stamp Card from the search list (making the Stamp Card private) may be useful. They include:

  • Providing exclusivity to select users e.g. creating a VIP stamp card

  • To offer employee/staff only benefits

  • Membership-based programs that are restricted to certain users (and the not general public)

  • Sale of restricted products and services

  • Internal testing or training with staff prior to launching the program

If you want your Stamp Card to be discovered via the in-app search feature, please make sure 'public card' is toggled on from your Merchant Console.
