How much does Niqati cost per month in Saudi Arabia?

What Niqati actually costs, tier by tier

Niqati costs 0 SAR/mo on Free Forever (1 card, up to 50 customers), 49.99 SAR/mo or 499.99 SAR/yr on Pro (unlimited cards/customers, notifications, analytics, priority support), and a custom quote on Enterprise (API, webhooks, POS integrations including Foodics, multi-branch management) - as of September 2026, per Niqati's pricing page.

That's a genuine free tier, which puts Niqati ahead of most vendors in this comparison on price alone. The catch is the ceiling: 50 customers is half of what Waya's Free plan allows before new sign-ups pause, and Niqati's multi-branch management sits behind the quote-based Enterprise tier rather than Pro.

Niqati also runs a promo code cutting the annual Pro price to 349.99 SAR, stated as valid for App Store subscriptions only - confirm that restriction directly with Niqati before budgeting around it. Waya does not connect to Foodics; if a Foodics link matters to you, that's a real Niqati Enterprise advantage worth pricing out separately.

Every vendor here, side by side, as of September 2026. A cell reading Not found or Unknown means the vendor's site doesn't state it, not that the feature is confirmed absent - and prices change, so verify anything that matters on the vendor's own page before you sign.

Not listed = not on the vendor's site; verify directly.

The 12-month math at roughly 300 customers

Say you're heading toward 300 enrolled customers - past Niqati's 50-customer free cap and past Waya's 100-customer free cap, so both comparisons start from a paid plan. Here's a year of each platform's relevant tier, billed monthly unless a vendor states an annual rate.

Loyapro's own site quotes 708 SAR/yr for Basic with no annual discount; Twiv discounts to 11 months' cost when billed yearly.

• At 300 customers, both free plans are already spent - you're comparing paid tiers on both sides
• Niqati Pro (599.88 SAR/yr billed monthly) undercuts Waya Growth on sticker price alone
• Niqati's geofence radius and full trigger list aren't disclosed; Waya publishes both (50-500 m, 4 named triggers)
• Neither Niqati nor the other three named vendors publish scheduled campaigns that respect working hours - Waya does

What actually differs beyond the sticker price

Wallet and app requirements

Both platforms add a card to Apple Wallet and Google Wallet with no app download for the customer - a genuine tie on this specific point, and one that rules out Loyverse and Loyalfy in the wider table above.

Notifications and automated triggers

Waya discloses exactly what its automation does: a 50-500 meter geofence radius (150 m default) across up to 10 branches, plus four editable triggers - welcome, stamp added, reward redeemed, and a 14-day win-back. Niqati claims a similarly-named Geo-Aware feature and event-based triggers but doesn't publish a radius, a location count, or an itemized trigger list.

Scheduled campaigns

Waya's scheduled campaigns respect the shop's working hours - a send outside opening hours moves automatically to the next open slot. None of the 8 vendors in this comparison, Niqati included, describe that logic on their own sites.

Multi-branch management

Niqati gates multi-branch management to its quote-based Enterprise tier. Waya includes up to 3 branches on Growth (85 SAR/mo) and unlimited branches on Premium (149 SAR/mo), with no separate sales call required.

Where Waya's own limits are, plainly

No platform in this comparison does everything, Waya included. Here's what to know before you commit.

What to verify on Niqati's pricing page before you sign

Niqati's published tiers are clearer than most vendors in this comparison, but a few details are still worth confirming directly before you commit a year of budget.

• Is VAT included in the sticker price, or added on top at checkout?
• How long is the free trial, and does it genuinely need no credit card?
• Is there a per-branch or per-location fee once you open a second site?
• What happens to enrolled customers' cards if you cancel - do they lose the card?
• Is the price published in SAR, or converted from USD/EUR/AUD at checkout?
• If there's a free tier, does it stay free forever, or expire after a trial window?

What the numbers say about return rate

Price comparisons matter less than whether the card actually gets people back in the door. Here's what we've watched happen on our own side.

One Waya salon enrolled 265 customers and saw 71 return two or more times inside the trial window - a roughly 27% return rate, built entirely on the free plan before a single paid month.

How to try Waya against Niqati this week

Neither platform requires a long commitment to evaluate. Both offer a genuinely free way in, so there's no reason to decide on marketing copy alone.

Waya's free tier reaches twice as many customers as Niqati's, and Growth (85 SAR/mo) discloses a geofence radius, four named triggers, and working-hours scheduling Niqati doesn't describe. With Arabic-first cards, SAR pricing, and no commission, Waya is the stronger value past 50 customers - though Niqati Enterprise is worth pricing separately for a Foodics or Odoo link. These facts are dated September 2026; confirm current numbers on niqati.com before you sign.

1. Day 1: create your Waya card

   Set up a stamp or points card free, no credit card - it's live in minutes, side by side with Niqati.

2. Day 2: run both QR codes at the till

   Put both programs' QR codes out for a week and watch which one gets scanned and finished more often.

3. Day 3: time the notification

   Send a welcome message on each platform to your own phone and compare how fast, and where, it actually arrives.

4. Day 4: get a written 12-month quote

   Ask Niqati for VAT-inclusive pricing in writing and compare it to Waya's public 85 SAR/mo Growth price.

5. Day 5: decide, and export first

   If you're leaving Niqati, note or export your customer list before cancelling - re-enrollment on Waya happens by a fresh QR scan.
