Price
WP Swings lists Pro at $99 per year for one site, $199 for five and $409 for ten, with two-year plans at a discount. Wren Loyalty Pro is $49 for one site, $99 for five and $179 for unlimited sites, and the renewal price never goes up.
The free versions
The WP Swings free plugin is broad: points for purchases and sign-ups, referral points, a points-based membership with up to two levels, and gamified pop-up campaigns. Wren Loyalty free focuses on the core program: points on every order, redeeming with a slider in the Cart and Checkout blocks, per-product rules, refund handling and a balance check against its ledger.
Tiers and referrals
In the WP Swings plugin, customers spend points to join a membership level; Pro removes the two-level limit. Wren Loyalty Pro tiers are earned automatically from lifetime points or spend, with earn multipliers and badges, and its referral program rewards both friends on the first order, with self-referral guards.
Block checkout
Wren Loyalty puts its points panel inside the Cart and Checkout blocks. The WP Swings listing describes its blocks as a way to place its shortcodes; it does not say whether redeeming works inside the Checkout block, so test it on a staging site if your store uses block checkout.
Importing
Wren Loyalty reads WP Swings balances directly and matches customers by account, so nobody loses their points when you switch.
