Great app and simple to set up. Working with the Student Beans Shopify team has been great. They took the time to jump on a video call and to work with us to best optimise our promotion to ensure success.

I recently had the unfortunate experience of using the Student Beans app, and I must say that my overall impression was extremely disappointing. From the lack of support to the abysmal results, I found myself questioning the effectiveness of this platform for promoting my offer to students. Here's a detailed review of my frustrating experience.

First and foremost, the lack of support provided by the Student Beans team was truly disheartening. Furthermore, despite my efforts to create an appealing offer, the results were far from satisfactory. According to the app's analytics, less than five people visited my offer during the entire campaign. This dismal outcome not only raises questions about the app's user base and reach but also its ability to deliver meaningful results for businesses like mine. It's disheartening to invest time and resources into a platform that fails to deliver the promised exposure.

The lackluster performance of the Student Beans app in terms of driving traffic and conversions is concerning, especially considering the reputation it has built as a platform catering specifically to students. The minimal number of visitors to my offer suggests that the app's user base may not be as active or engaged as advertised, ultimately undermining the value of using the app for promotional purposes.

In conclusion, my experience with the Student Beans app was deeply disappointing. The lack of support, poor results, and overall ineffectiveness of the platform left me frustrated and questioning its value for businesses seeking to target the student demographic. I would strongly advise caution before investing time and resources into this app, as it may not deliver the expected outcomes.

Given the issues I encountered, I cannot recommend the Student Beans app for businesses looking to promote their offers to students.

Trial starts before account gets verified so the free trial doesn't actually give u 7 days which is a little frustrating, in addition you can only communicate with them via email, so you are left waiting and hoping they will actually respond / reply to your email, for me personally not a great start but I'm going to continue to progress to see if there is any value in accessing the lead generation side of the platform, although after reading some of the reviews this seems to be over sold / promised and the actual conversions aren't anything special - is it worth the money and effort ??? decision is out on this, if I am able to update my review in a couple of weeks I'll report back

I was looking for a way to offer student discount on my Shopify store and found Student Beans. Connecting the Student Beans app to my Store was extremely easy and it works perfectly. The Student Beans team have been very helpful from the start and efficiently responded to any questions I had. I am looking forward to reaching Gen Z with the help of Student Beans.
