Reviews for Influence ‑ Loyalty & Referral

Updating the review after the developers reply: After they sorted out how to grant us access to what we had paid for, we began installing the app. I thought they'd redeem themselves. I was wrong. It's full of bugs and feels like someone vibe coded the whole thing. In the redeem modal, for example, they show the following completely inconsistent and partially wrong strings in the same view: "CHF1 off every 100 Points" "Redeem 1400 {{pointsCurrency}}" "$14.00 off your shopping cart" How can any of their customers put this in their store and still have shoppers trust them? There are error messages everywhere. The strings don't translate properly. It's a complete mess. Feels like I am playing QA tester for them. Support is basically russian roulette. There's not one agent that will take your case and work through it. You just get whoever is available and then they don't follow up and then Intercom asks you after a few hours "Just checking back in, let us know if there's anything else we can help with." There are many words I would like to use to express my feelings and describe the application but they would probably go against the guidelines here. To influence.io: If you're serious about making things better, have someone from your team send me a direct email and I'll send you the list of bugs with screenshots. I am definitely not going to do all of that through Intercom and then re-explain it over and over to each new agent. Original review: They charged us, but we don't have access to the app. Support doesn't help and is not transparent about what is happening. It's a complete joke. Stay away from this if you can and don't use reviews.io. There are better and cheaper alternatives. We upgraded our reviews.io subscription to include the influence.io "bolt-on". But influence.io keeps showing our tier as "free" and we don't have access to the features even though we were already charged for it! The support is a joke. Every new agent who enters the chat doesn't understand what is happening, and we need to explain it again. They don't follow up on the status, provide proactive updates, or explain what is happening. I even get automated messages from them saying, "Is there anything else we can help you with?". Even though our problem is not solved, they are the ones who should follow up with us. I'm truly sorry to hear about your experience — it’s clear we’ve fallen short, and I want to sincerely apologise for the frustration this has caused you. You’re absolutely right to expect clear communication, consistent support, and access to the features you’ve paid for. This is not the experience we aim to provide, and I’m very sorry we've let you down. We’ve identified the issue on our end, and I can confirm that a fix has now been pushed to restore access to the Influence.io features included in your plan. In addition, we’ve applied a credit to your account as a small gesture of apology for the inconvenience. We appreciate your honest feedback - it helps us improve.

Customer service is great. Trilok was very helpful and quick to respond. I found the answer to my question. The app itself still needs some work but than that it's all good

Always 10/10 support

New to the platform and love the features on the review and loyalty side of things. Lots of features which allow for forward growth. Support is amazing - 20 hrs a day is really useful as a business.

J'ai adopté cette application et je suis ravie ! Même en tant que débutante, je l'ai trouvée très intuitive. L'interface est simple à prendre en main et le service client est réactif et à l'écoute en cas de besoin. Je remercie spécialement Trilok, qui m'a répondue même à 3h30 du matin ^^ En résumer, un outil indispensable pour mon site web ! Je recommande vivement cette application à tous mes partenaires et à vous qui lisez ce commentaire

Great product, well priced and the team are incredibly helpful!

We installed influence.io because we wanted to introduce a loyalty programme for our customers. The app has a simple structure so that the implementation and customisation of the widgets was easy. The available guides help well with setting up the programme. In addition, the support is quick and satisfactory. For example, they helped us with a bulk update of points for certain customers. Points can also be assigned to individual customers in the app and the dashboard helps to analyse performance.

We've just implemented influence.io along with reviews.io and impressed so far. We've been able to import points and connect with Klaviyo, Shopify etc. Support have also been really helpful. So far, so good!

We were an existing Reviews.IO user and decided to switch to Influence for loyalty rewards. The installation was a breeze and we had it up and running before they reached out to schedule an onboarding call! Had a couple of questions about the install process and getting customers imported, but this was all taken care of right away. Definitely recommend! Thank you!

Great product, team and support. Love it!

A brilliant loyalty solution for omnichannel stores! The team at Influence is brilliant at answering questions and coding solutions quickly. Our Senior Product Specialist, Kai, is always happy to help and has been excellent at onboarding us seamlessly. We needed apple pay for our in-store customers and that was something the technical team coded super quickly. Highly recommend this as a loyalty solution for omnichannel brands wanting to build customer retention and reward their customers.

I recommend this loyalty system especially if you are looking to use it along reviews.io The app also offers plenty of customisable options for earning and redeeming.

Well to be honest, Loyalty programs can often be expensive. This one, however, provides a full-fledged solution that's not only correct in terms of prices but also integrates effortlessly with Reviews.io, Klaviyo and Shopify POS. It does have all the generic features you want from a good loyalty app and so fat it works like a charm. Special thanks to the support team that ensured a hassle-free transition. The support level is top-notch. And they keep building new feature.

Always had great experiences with these guys and support has always been good as we have had consistency with our account manager kai. if we ever run into issues these have always been quickly resolved.

I have been chatting for over 2 hours, asking for help setting up reviews.io app and influence. The chat was getting me nowhere and sadly they refused to switch to a call or zoom unless I had paid for a professional plan.

Not used the app properly yet, however the onboarding service provided by Kai has been amazing. From what we have seen so far, it will allow us to integrate smoothly with our shoplift store, which then also connects to our ReviewsIO platform.

I am new to this program, but I want to let others know that if you have issues, Customer Care really seems to actually CARE. Maddox helped me by syncing my existing client base from Shopify so that my existing customers were able to sign up with ease. I also love the ability to customize emails to the clients with images. That really helps with branding. So far, so good! We're really excited about this program!

Although the reporting is fairly basic and currently lacks detailed data break-downs, I cannot fault the team and their chat function. Within 20 minutes of making query there will always be someone live to help with questions etc and I am always left with a problem solved quickly and efficiently. And today I was informed that the data analytics and reporting is in development to cover the exact questions I was enquiring about today - awesome!

Excellent App even on the free service. We've had several queries which have been dealt with by the team quickly and efficiently. Would recommend to anyone looking for a rewards system for their shop.

Great loyalty app and so far all relevant features included. Basically very straightforward to set up, but in case of uncertainties or questions the customer support team is absolutely amazing and super helpful!

I believe i was actually the first business to actually begin using Influence loyalty, and we have been using it now for almost a year. It has not been without its challenges and frustrations I would say but overall i am happy, and am hoping that it will continue to improve. What has worked well. Great for integrations with Klaviyo so we can easily communicate our points to customers Good support and onboarding with Jacob on point! Integrates well with Shopify with accurate points balances (it took some time). What has worked less well. No functionality to search for customers by name - have to use email address which is cumbersome and not ideal. (update, this is now available..) Very limited options for customisation on the front end - we had a custom built webpage that now is more basic and not as appealing. Hoping some more styling options will be available. Also the customisation and styling of customer emails needs some attention. Overall I am now happy and look forward to more bells and whistles soon.

Support, doesn't answer the question you ask them and simply leave you on read. Would not recommend the app.

Great loyalty app. Easy to use and has all the features we need. The customer support is absolutely perfect.

I'm loving this app. It has nice features and the customer support is awesome. Totally recommended!

We're only a couple of days in but I'm loving the app so far! Super easy to set up and Cam has been awesome at answering any questions. Can't wait to see the results from Influence and start to really integrate it into our digital marketing strategy!
