Jisp Scan & Save celebrates happy third anniversary

Retail technology company Jisp has marked the three-year anniversary of its Scan & Save app, achieving impressive performance figures and receiving high praise from its retailers.

Since its launch in 2021, Scan & Save has earned retailers almost £6million while shoppers have saved over £2.2million in that time. Total scans of the app’s AR vouchers also broke through the five-million mark, with redemptions leading to sales topping four million.


The number of registered Scan & Save stores also hit 1,000 for the first time since launch continuing the impressive recruitment of new retailers into the business, while registered Scan & Save users grew to 123,000.

Scan & Save retailers have praised the impact the app has had in building loyalty and driving footfall, sales and margin for their businesses in a continuingly tough trading environment.

“Scan & Save has been a massive success across our store estate delivering great results in terms of increased sales, footfall and loyalty,” said Kevin Polley, Operations Manager, Kash Retail.

“It’s now an invaluable part of our store offering driving repeat visits and incremental sales for us, while bringing fantastic savings on leading brands to our customers. Our customers also get the added benefit of loyalty rewards which are converted to cash value vouchers to spend in our stores ensuring our place as a valued part of the community.”

With the cost-of-living crisis still taking its toll on shoppers’ budgets, and by extension retailers sales, Scan & Save’s popularity has grown significantly as retailers look to offer value in their stores in a way that rewards loyalty and keeps shoppers coming back for more.

‘Since signing up for Scan & Save we’ve seen increased sales and footfall in store. It’s so simple and easy to use, once customers have downloaded the app they’re coming in more and more regularly to make savings and earn loyalty points,” added Jav Iqbal, Nisa Feltham Road. “This is great for our customers pockets and for us, as we build a trust in the community while gaining more sales. It’s win-win for both parties.’

Shoppers meanwhile are looking for simple ways to save money, and Jisp’s app-based solution offers straightforward discounts and cash rewards to be spent back in store – top redeemers can save over £3,000 per year, while earning upwards of £800 in rewards.

“We’re delighted to celebrate our three-year anniversary with some stunning Scan & Save performance statistics which shows significant progress and supports the position that retailers and shoppers alike are looking for the loyalty rewards platforms like this provide,” said Alex Rimmer, head of marketing and communications at Jisp..

“The positive and supportive feedback from our retails is testament to the impact Scan & Save can have on convenience retail businesses, and we’re very proud of the collaborative working relationship we share with them.”
