Talk to the founders who built Mage. No email-only support, no ticket queues - real conversations with real people.

Why should you choose Mage?

Built for 2026, Not 2012

LoyaltyLion has over a decade of legacy code. Mage is built fresh on Shopify's latest APIs - modern checkout extensions, native integrations, and fast performance.

Founder-Led Support

LoyaltyLion offers email support. With Mage, you talk directly to the founders. We're a message away, available evenings and weekends.

Transparent Pricing

LoyaltyLion's pay-per-feature model means costs add up quickly. Mage Growth includes all premium features - what you see is what you pay.

Weekly Product Updates

LoyaltyLion's product has slowed in recent years. We ship new features every single week - our product roadmap is always moving forward.

LoyaltyLion vs Mage FAQ

The biggest differences are technology and pricing. LoyaltyLion was built in 2012 and charges per feature. Mage is built fresh on modern Shopify APIs with all features included on every plan. Plus, you get direct access to the founders, not just email support.

Yes. We'll migrate your customer points, VIP tier statuses, and program settings. Our team handles the technical work - you just provide your LoyaltyLion export and we take care of the rest.

On average, brands save 40-60% by switching to Mage. LoyaltyLion's pay-per-feature model means costs add up quickly. Mage's pricing is transparent - all features included on all plans.
