What sets Wave Grocery apart from Mercatus.





Wave Grocery vs. Mercatus: Which platform fully meets your grocery needs?
Wave Grocery provides transparent pricing starting at 600€ per month with no hidden fees or implementation costs. Our pay-as-you-grow model ensures that as your business scales, your costs grow proportionally.
Mercatus doesn’t share its pricing model or costs, leaving you in the dark. Choose a platform that gives you clarity from the start.
Wave Grocery offers a white-label mobile app that stands out with a 6.2% conversion rate (3 points higher than the industry average) and an average rating of 4.7 stars in app stores.
Mercatus also offers a white-label mobile app, but doesn’t share any information about its mobile app’s performance.
When choosing a mobile app for your grocery business, opt for a solution backed by data, user satisfaction, and real-world success. A platform your customers will love using from day one.
Both platforms provide a white-label storefront with customizable branding, layout, and features like landing pages, banners, and promo areas.
While both platforms are designed specifically for grocery stores, only Wave Grocery offers advanced features that come readily available for modern online grocery stores, such as weighted products, cutting options, and a smart search bar. These features are not natively included in Mercatus and may require additional customization or development.
Both Wave Grocery and Mercatus offer end-to-end order fulfillment solutions designed for grocery businesses. However, Wave Grocery stands out by providing modular, flexible fulfillment apps that let you choose only the tools you need—whether it’s picking, delivery, or both.
We offer two separate apps—a Picking App and a Delivery App—allowing businesses to tailor their fulfillment setup to match specific needs. This modular approach offers maximum flexibility, so you only invest in the solutions you actually require.
Wave Grocery Loyalty module goes above and beyond with:
- Advanced gamification: Quizzes, polls, contests, and games.
- Multiple loyalty schemes: Points, cashback, stamps, and referral programs.
- Digital loyalty cards: Seamlessly integrate existing loyalty programs and issue digital cards.
- 99.999% uptime: Ensures your loyalty program is always running smoothly
Gamification boosts customer interaction, encourages repeat purchases, and strengthens long-term customer loyalty, making Wave Grocery’s Loyalty Software a more comprehensive solution for sustained growth.
