How it works online - your customers' experience

When a customer redeems a reward with a spend threshold, they will need to ensure their order total meets or exceeds the spend threshold.


If the order total does not meet or exceed the threshold, they will receive an error message when trying to apply their discount code.

When a customer redeems a reward with a spend threshold, they must ensure their order total meets or exceeds the required amount. If the order total is below the threshold, they will receive an error message when attempting to apply the discount code.

Once they have added products to their order to meet or exceed the threshold, they can simply return to checkout and the discount code.

Once the customer adds enough products to their order to meet or exceed the threshold, they can return to checkout to apply the discount code.

Tips for Success

  • Get creative with your reward titles. Add variety and personality to your reward titles to create customer interest in redeeming rewards.

  • Create three or more rewards to encourage customers to earn more and more points to spend. A rewards ladder gives your customers more flexibility to choose rewards they would like to earn points towards and encourages them to spend more in order to achieve higher point-cost rewards.

  • In-store – Make sure your staff knows what your loyalty rewards are so they can inform customers at checkout. This will encourage your existing customers to be active with the loyalty program, and new customers to join.

  • Find out what rewards your customers like - try creating rewards with different discount types and amounts and measure their success.

  • It’s important to be sure you also include the relevant terms and conditions for rewards. Whether it's to encourage fair use or to protect your store, outlining exactly how and when your rewards can be redeemed ensures that your rewards are used as you intend them to be used.
