What changed
Here's why Stocard stopped working.
Klarna acquired Stocard in 2021. In late 2024, they made the decision to shut down the Stocard app. Klarna loved the Stocard users, but they hated the app.
The goal was to migrate all the users onto their platform, monetize their presence, and sell them products. Klarna is a buy-now, pay-later app. Your loyalty card wallet now lives inside a financial product that tracks your behavior, shows ads, and requires a full financial account to use.
The simplicity of Stocard is gone.
- Apple Watch support — removed entirely by Klarna.
- Account-optional use — Klarna requires full signup.
- A product that doesn't push financial products at every interaction.
App Store privacy labels
What each app collects, in Apple's own words.
Hopscotch
App Store privacy label
No tracking. Nothing linked to your identity. Apple lists location and user content because Hopscotch uses them on-device — geofencing and the optional reference photos you attach to cards — but neither leaves your phone.
