Why brands switch from Appstle Loyalty to Mage

Appstle is a subscriptions app first, with a basic loyalty product attached. Mage is loyalty-first, with every feature serious brands need.

Built loyalty-first

Mage is purpose-built for retention, not bolted onto a subscriptions product. Every feature designed to drive repeat purchases.

Modern Customer Accounts

An on-site sidebar that unifies orders, returns, loyalty, wishlists, and upsells. Appstle has no equivalent.

No-code Canvas editor

Marketers and ecom teams design loyalty, account, referral, and wishlist blocks live, without engineers.

Wishlists, advanced referrals, and more

Built-in wishlists, fraud-protected two-sided referrals, store credit, and memberships. Features Appstle Loyalty doesn't ship.

Plans that scale with your store

Starter from $49 for smaller brands ready to graduate from Appstle. Growth for fast-growing and enterprise brands.

One app that grows with you

Loyalty, VIP tiers, referrals, and wishlists from Starter, with Customer Accounts and Memberships as Enterprise modules.

What Appstle's loyalty bolt-on can't ship

Mage Customer Accounts unify orders, returns, loyalty, wishlists, and personalized recommendations in a single on-site sidebar, built with our no-code Canvas editor.

Appstle is a subscriptions app with a basic loyalty product attached. Mage rebuilds the entire account experience around loyalty, so every logged-in visit becomes a retention surface, not a points lookup.

Pricing that scales with your store, not against it

Appstle's loyalty product is cheap to start, but you pay the price in features. Mage Starter is robust at $49, and Growth adds advanced features when you're ready.

Starter at $49/month

All the loyalty fundamentals plus modern features Appstle doesn't ship. The right starting point for small brands that take retention seriously.

Growth packed with features

Fraud-protected referrals, store credit, checkout extensions, and the developer API, with Customer Accounts and Memberships on Enterprise.

Scales to enterprise

From your first 100 customers to high-volume Shopify Plus stores, Mage moves with you. No replatform when you grow.

Appstle doesn't have wishlists. Mage includes them.

Wishlists drive second purchases, yet Appstle Loyalty doesn't offer them at all. Mage includes built-in wishlists and saves from Starter, so customers can save favorites, get back-in-stock alerts, and convert from intent to purchase without leaving your store.

  • Save favorites with one tap from PDPs, collection pages, or directly inside the account sidebar
  • Back-in-stock & price-drop alerts automatic emails and SMS when wished-for products restock or drop in price
  • Included from Starter no upgrade tier, no separate subscription, no per-customer fee

A full Canvas editor.Not just a widget config.

Appstle gives you a basic widget configurator. Mage Canvas is a true no-code editor your ecommerce and marketing team can use to build, change, and ship loyalty, account, referral, and wishlist blocks across the storefront. And when you do need to go deeper, a full developer API and JS SDK are right there waiting.

  • Mage Canvas no-code editor drag, drop, and design loyalty, account, referral, and wishlist blocks live
  • Full developer API & JS SDK extend, embed, or build headless on the same API our own widgets run on
  • Klaviyo, Postscript, Judge.me, and more 21 native integrations to plug loyalty data into your stack

  • Full import of points, VIP tiers, and referral history
  • All earning rules and rewards rebuilt 1:1 in Mage
  • Zero customer disruption: same balances, better program
  • White-glove migration handled by our team, not a checklist

“Mage Loyalty is hands-down the best loyalty platform on Shopify, and the team behind it is just as exceptional as the product. When we needed customizations specific to our business, the Mage team worked directly with us to make it happen. And the wishlist feature deserves its own callout: it's the best we've come across, period.”

Switching from Appstle Loyalty? FAQ

Mage is the best alternative to Appstle Loyalty for Shopify brands serious about retention. Where Appstle bolts a basic loyalty product onto a subscriptions-first app, Mage is purpose-built for loyalty and ships features Appstle doesn't: Customer Accounts, a no-code Canvas editor, built-in wishlists, fraud-protected referrals, and a full developer API. Starter from $49 for smaller brands, Growth for fast-growing brands, and Enterprise adds Customer Accounts and Memberships.

Appstle is fine for stores just getting started, but its loyalty offering is a secondary product to its subscription tools. Brands serious about retention quickly hit Appstle's limits: no Customer Accounts, no real no-code editor, no wishlists, basic referrals, and gated features. Mage is built loyalty-first, with loyalty, VIP tiers, referrals, and wishlists included from Starter and pricing that scales with you.

No. We import every point balance, lifetime points, VIP tier, and referral record exactly as it stands in Appstle. Customers log in to find the same balance in a faster, far more capable program.

Mage Starter starts at $49/month with the full loyalty fundamentals included, which suits smaller brands wanting something more capable than Appstle Loyalty without the enterprise price tag. As you grow, Mage Growth adds fraud-protected referrals, checkout extensions, and the developer API, and Enterprise adds Customer Accounts and Memberships.

A modern Customer Account sidebar that unifies orders, returns, loyalty, and recommendations; a true no-code Canvas editor for marketing teams; built-in wishlists and saves; fraud-protected two-sided referrals; a full developer API and JS SDK; and checkout extensions for native point redemption.

Built natively for the modern Shopify stack, with full support for 2.0 themes, app blocks, checkout extensions, and Plus features like Multipass SSO. Headless storefronts use the same API and SDK our embedded widgets are built on.

Founder-led support with direct Slack access to the engineers building Mage. Free managed migration on Growth and above from Appstle. We treat support as part of the product, not a separate help-desk queue.
