Why should you choose Mage?

Launch in 5 Minutes, Not 5 Weeks

Growave's multi-product approach means complex onboarding. Mage is focused purely on loyalty, so you can go live in minutes - not wait around for weeks.

Loyalty Is Our Only Focus

Growave spreads across loyalty, reviews, UGC, and wishlists. Mage does one thing: loyalty. Our entire team is dedicated to making your program exceptional.

Support That Actually Helps

When you need help with Mage, you talk to the founders - not support agents who pass you to developers. We're on Slack, available evenings and weekends.

Works With Your Existing Stack

Mage integrates deeply with Klaviyo, JudgeMe, and your entire tech stack. You don't need to bundle everything into one platform.

Everything you need, nothing you don't

Growave vs Mage FAQ

The biggest differences are focus and speed. Growave is a multi-product platform (loyalty, reviews, UGC, wishlists) which makes it complex and slow to set up. Mage is 100% focused on loyalty, so you can launch in 5 minutes and get deeper features from a specialized platform.

5 minutes - seriously. Because Mage is focused purely on loyalty (not 5 different products), setup is streamlined and simple. No developer required, no weeks-long onboarding process.

Unlike Growave which locks VIP tiers behind $199/month and customization behind $499/month, Mage Growth ($325/month) includes all premium features. What you see is what you get.

Yes. When you message Mage, you talk to the founders and the team who built the product - not support agents who pass you to developers that take days to respond. We're on Slack, available evenings and weekends.

Yes. We'll import your customer points, VIP tier statuses, and program settings. Our team handles the technical work - most migrations complete within 24-48 hours with zero downtime.

No problem. Many brands use Mage for loyalty alongside other review platforms like JudgeMe. You don't need to bundle everything together - use the best tool for each job.
