Best Alternative to Smile.io
VISU rewards the whole journey — scans, visits, signups and purchases — with instant $VISU, geofenced activations, QR Ads and layered referrals.
Why switch from “Smile.io”?
Traditional loyalty focuses on checkout. VISU monetizes attention earlier — at the scan and visit — and tracks scan→click→action.
No native QR rewards or geofenced activations
No QR Ads marketplace with frequency caps and UTM routing
No multi-layer referrals tied to scans and conversions (L1/L2)
No conditional A/B routing from the QR (time, device, geo)
