We Started Over: Here's Why Stamped is Changing Everything for Growing Brands

Written by Aiden Brady | Jul 9, 2025 6:03:11 PM

Introduction

For nearly a decade, Stamped has powered over 40,000 stores, helping brands collect reviews at a fair price. It worked. But somewhere along the way, we realized "it works" wasn't good enough anymore.

Retention tools became fragmented and messy for merchants. Brands were juggling multiple platforms for reviews, loyalty, and lifecycle marketing, dealing with broken integrations between systems, and facing usage-based pricing that made scaling their business and their programs more expensive.

We had a choice: continuously patch the old system or build something completely new.

We chose to start over.

What "the new Stamped" really means

This isn't just an upgrade. It's a complete reimagining of how retention marketing should work, built on one simple belief: great retention experiences drive revenue.

We didn't just improve the old platform. We rebuilt it from the ground up to be faster, cleaner, and smarter. The result? One unified engine that connects reviews, loyalty, and lifecycle marketing without the headaches, surprises, or growth penalties that have plagued the industry.

Three ways the new Stamped transforms your business

1. Replace your entire retention stack with one platform

Stop logging in and out of different apps. Stop chasing results across systems. Stop troubleshooting broken integrations.

The new Stamped platform does what used to require three separate tools: reviews, loyalty, and lifecycle marketing, all in one place. You'll work with one vendor, get one invoice, and have team-based support that understands your entire retention strategy.

For your finance team, this means simpler budgeting and fewer contractor relationships to manage. For you, it means better reporting that shows your complete retention picture, not fragmented data across multiple dashboards.

2. Pricing that grows with you, not against you

Here's what we learned: growth penalties are growth killers. When your retention tools get more expensive with every new customer, you're essentially being taxed for success.

Our new pricing model is radically simple: $499 per month, flat rate, for everything. No annual contracts. No surprise fees. No overage charges. No order limits.

We don't want to tax your growth. We want to help you drive it.

3. Experiences that actually convert

Your customers deserve better than one-size-fits-all messages and generic product pages. They definitely don't need review requests before their order even arrives.

Stamped ingests customer data and enriches customer profiles to personalize every touchpoint across email, SMS, and on-site based on real behavior. The platform automatically handles the complex segmentation and logic that used to take hours to set up, so you can focus on strategy instead of technical implementation.

The right message, through the right channel, at the right time. Every interaction is perfectly timed, personalized, and easy to act on.

No more email fatigue. No more awkward timing. No more guessing what matters. Just smarter targeting and more meaningful moments that actually convert.

Built for lean teams who want performance

We know you don't have unlimited resources. You can't beg your designers, marketing team, and developers for help every time you want to launch a new campaign.

The new Stamped is built for teams like yours. Fewer clicks from message to conversion. Clearer insights that actually drive growth. Setup that doesn't require a technical degree.

One unified experience for both you and your customers, designed to deliver results without the operational chaos.

The truth about where we've been

We've been around for a decade, and we know the experience hasn't always been consistent. The old platform was held back by outdated technology and pricing models that didn't work for fast-growing merchants.

We could have kept patching the old system, but that wouldn't have been fair to you or your customers. Instead, we chose to acknowledge the real challenges and build something worthy of the brands we serve.

This is our commitment to doing what's right for merchants and pushing this industry forward.
