Iphone app for loyalty cards

Options
Hi everyone,

I've been using the Stocard app on my iPhone to store loyalty cards such as Clubcard and Nectar. I like it because it can be used offline when I have no Internet / signal and can also be used on my Apple Watch, even when it is not connected to the Internet or my phone. 

I had a notification the other day saying the app is being discontinued and moved onto the Klarna app, which I don't really want to download. 

I want to know if anyone has any suggestions for alternatives to Stocard on the iphone? I could use Apple Wallet for some of the cards, but I don't think it allows you to add all types of loyalty card.

Thanks in advance for your help!

  • thanks for the warning 
    I just opened my Stocard App & got a 14 day warning. 
    I dislike klarna on principle so I’ll certainly stop recommending Stocard to others… though I might give in and transfer over my existing account to klarna. 
    Or maybe I should just build my own version of the app if there isn’t another one out there.

    If your using an iPhone why not just add Clubcard and Nectar to your Apple Wallet which can equally be used offline? Currently have JL, Coop, Tesco, Nectar, Hilton Honors, Harrods, Tate Membership etc in there 

    Some dont directly support Apple Wallet but there are apps that can make a Wallet compatible card for whatever you want.

    All the cards I use I've added directly to the Wallet app from the relevant loyalty app. Tesco Clubcard, Nectar, Waitrose, Ikea, Caffe Nero, Costa Coffee etc. Don't need Stocard anymore.
  • Although I have successfully added my Nectar card to my Apple Wallet on my iPhone, there does not seem a way to also use this on my Apple Watch.

    Hi all. I never got back to say thanks for all the responses.

    As an update on this, my Stocard app is still working on my iPhone, but I have read elsewhere that the app will cease working on the 15th December 2024. I have found a good replacement app called Supercards: https://www.supercardsapp.com/

    It's almost identical to Stocard. It stores all your loyalty cards on the phone and backs them up to iCloud. There is also an app for Apple Watch and it still works even if you have no internet (some of the alternatives don't work if you have no internet or signal). I would recommend it to others.

    Agreed that Supercardsapp (which also calls itself Stocard?!) looks to be good because you can add cards by attributing them to a retailer and then scanning their barcode.
