Antavo AI Loyalty Cloud vs. LoyaltyLion

If you are looking for a platform to host and run your loyalty program through, Antavo is the best out there. The mechanics and customer journey options available with front end support is unmatched. The options for digital wallet for wallet messaging has allowed for a new channel for customer relationships

If you have a Shopify website for your business, LoyaltyLion is a no-brainer due to its seamless integration which means it will fit like a glove into your CRM strategy. However, for any other backend e-commerce website, you need to look elsewhere since integration is not possible especially if you are looking at a retail strategy too where your POS system needs to be integrated into your website.

Customer support is not well organised and you can make many efforts to get the resolution. For email or phone support you have to have the patience to deal with the support team, also if you submit a query the responding time is usually high.
