Today I complained to the checkout chick at Dan Murphys that I had so many loyalty cards I could never find the right one - she flashed her phone at me and on it was an app called "Stocard" which copied all your loyalty card to one page, so if in say Woolies, you press the Stocard app on your phone and select 'woolies' and there it is.
Got rid of 8 cards!
The site is below - pls note "Stocard" is one of many such apps to choose from.
Thanks heaps have had the same issue will download

Is there an easy way to load the loyalty cards into the app or do you have to type the card number in for each card?
Cheers

StoCard is excellent, my wife uses it on her iPhone and I use it on my Windows phone.

Your phone will automatically take a scan of each card which you place in front of your phone - basically it takes a photo of your card and then resizes it so it is large and in focus, then stores it in the app.
Very simple (and free)
Good Luck.

I can't help noticing the irony in being loyal to eight different department stores or supermarkets.

I used a different app that did the same thing, but after a couple of years of upgrading the app, it lost all my cards which I didn't bother to keep the originals of. The thing is, for the ones like BCF, Supercheap and many more, all you have to do is quote your phone number that you registered the card with and they can bring up your details anyway. Dan's requires that you present the card though apparently, because I tried the same with them and was told the card was needed. (probably wasn't really, just the checkout attendant didn't know how else to use it. Also, if you buy something from some of the major stores and need to return it, but don't have your receipt, if you tell them the store, date and rough time that you bought it, they can pull up the purchase details on the computer as well. We've done this a couple of times now.
Rather than just taking a pic of your card, those apps scan the barcode and read the details from that. Provided the particular card is in the database. If not, you usually have to enter the card details manually. And not many store scanneres will read the barcode from your phone, so they quite often have to punch the number in by hand... or ask for your phone number.

Stocard gives you the option of storing the cards in the "cloud" so you can never lose them. I'm happy just to store them on my phone (I'm not that loyal!)
