Giftfly charges a percentage of every gift card sold with no monthly fee. Shopolo charges $29/month flat for digital gift cards alongside loyalty stamps, commission-free ordering, appointment booking, and email campaigns — with no percentage taken from sales.
Giftfly fee rates based on publicly available information. Subject to change. Shopolo charges Stripe standard processing only.
Giftfly has no monthly fee — but takes a percentage of every gift card sale (reported at 4–6% of gross). On a $100 gift card, that's $4–$6 per transaction to Giftfly, on top of payment processing. A business selling $5,000/month in gift cards pays $200–$300/month in Giftfly fees. Shopolo's flat $29/month covers unlimited gift card volume plus five additional features.
A customer who buys a gift card through Shopolo is automatically added to your email list and can join your loyalty program. When they use that gift card on an order, they earn stamps. Giftfly handles the gift card transaction and stops there — no customer relationship is built beyond the sale.
If gift cards are your only need, Giftfly's no-monthly-fee model has appeal at low volume. For businesses that want to turn a gift card buyer into a loyal repeat customer — through loyalty stamps, email promotions, and direct ordering — Shopolo builds that connection automatically, at a fixed cost that gets more efficient as volume grows.
Giftfly's no-monthly-fee model makes sense if you sell gift cards only occasionally — a few per month — and don't need any other tools. At very low volume, the per-sale fee is less than a monthly subscription. For any restaurant or business selling gift cards regularly, the per-transaction cost exceeds Shopolo's flat fee quickly, and Shopolo adds five additional features alongside.
No hardware. No setup fees. Gift cards, loyalty, ordering, and bookings — live in under 10 minutes.
