Advanced rewards across the programs

Stores can leverage advanced rewards within their Loyalty program, tailoring them to align with their brand's strategy and other essential factors.

  • Add Free Shipping and Free Product as Ways to Redeem within the Points program. If a member has enough points, they will be able to spend them on the reward

  • As an incentive within the Referral program, you can consider offering Free Shipping or Free Product as rewards for referred friends upon their first purchase. Additionally, advocates completing a referral can consistently enjoy the advanced rewards too

  • VIP Program members can enhance their experience by receiving exclusive advanced rewards as part of the benefits associated with upgrading to a higher tier.
