Troubleshooting

Stamp not counted

Troubleshoot a missing stamp: staff didn't scan, a missing permission, the wrong card, or a device that was offline.

A stamp only lands on a card when staff scan it — check these four causes if a customer says one is missing.

Most common causes

  1. Staff didn't scan the card

    Waya only adds a stamp when a staff member scans the customer's card and confirms the action in the Scan tab. A purchase alone doesn't create a stamp unless the shop also has an accounting or POS connector — see Connect an accounting or POS system.

  2. The staff member's role lacks permission

    Adding a stamp needs the add_points permission. If the staff member's role doesn't include it, the scan won't go through — see Staff roles and permissions and Staff cannot scan.

  3. The wrong card was scanned

    If your shop has more than one active card, make sure staff picked the same card the customer is enrolled on — see Scan a card.

  4. The device was offline

    Adding a stamp needs an internet connection to reach Waya's servers. If the staff device lost Wi-Fi or mobile data mid-scan, the stamp doesn't save — check the connection, then scan the card again to add the missing stamp.
