There are several ways to earn points, and they will vary depending on one of the most recent points-earning action the member made before receiving the email. By default, your Points Earned Loyalty Automation will use the merge tag "Points given reason" to automatically fill in what reason a member has earned points for.
Edit your Points given reason in your Points Earned Loyalty Automation
1. In your Marsello admin, go to Loyalty > Automations and click into your new Points Earned (Email) automation and select Edit Automation to begin customizing your email.
2. Select edit email.
3. Once you have the automation editor open you will be able to begin customizing your automation. Here you will be able to update the following settings:
Trigger: Select the cog icon next to the trigger feature to update or confirm your audience
Additional Steps: Select the "+" icon to open up the additional steps feature. This will allow you to add in a time delay for sending from when the customer enters the automation, additional email steps, additional SMS steps, or a points reward step.
4. Edit the contents of your message: To customize the contents of your message, simply click on the pencil icon next to the message to open the email editor. For additional help with using the editor, see our help center guide on creating an email campaign.
⚠️Important: The Earned Points Automation is currently syncing the original merge tag of ##{{shop_name}} from the loyalty notification. You will need to remove the preset ##{{store_name}} merge tag from the automation and replace it with the one from the drop-down menu to ensure the Automation will send as expected.
To access the ##{{store_name}} merge tag:
double-click into the text box where the merge tag will live. This will open up a secondary email editor.
click on the drop-down menu next to Merge Tag and select the ##{{store_name}} merge tag
5. You can remove existing merge tags from the email by deleting the text and add new merge tags by adding them from the drop down list.
6. Once you have updated your email with your selected merge tags, click Save and return. You will then be taken back to the automation builder displaying the triggers, click Enable Automation when you are ready to begin sending your new Points Earned (Email) automation.
