Blacklist products with a specific product tag from your loyalty program with Shopify

Exclude specific products from your loyalty program, so customers can't earn points for purchasing that product.

Product tag blacklisting allows you to exclude certain products from your loyalty program so that customers can't earn points for purchasing that product(s).
By default, your customers can earn points for purchasing any product.

📝 Note: With Shopify, there are two ways you can blacklist products. You can blacklist by Product Collection or by Product Tag. If you would like to blacklist by Product Collection, please follow these instructions.

1. In your Shopify Admin, go to Products
2. Select the product(s) you would like to exclude

3. Click More Actions, then click Add Tags

4. Name your tag, e.g. Loyalty Blacklist, then click Save

Your product tag will now be created in your Shopify account.

1. In your Marsello admin, go to Loyalty > Settings
2. Under Shopify Order Rewarding, go to "Do not reward points on products that are tagged with one of:" and click to open the drop-down, then click the Product Tag(s) that you would like to exclude from your loyalty program

📝 Note: If you have just added the product tag, it can take 15mins to sync into Marsello settings. You can exclude as many Shopify Product Tags from your loyalty program as needed.
3. Click Save
All products with that Shopify product tag will now be excluded from your loyalty program.
📝 Note: If you want to add the product back into your loyalty program in the future, just remove the tag from the product in Shopify.

If the customer's purchase includes a product that is in the blacklisted product list the customer will not earn points for that particular product.
In your Marsello admin, under the customer's profile, this will show as a line item in the points calculation.
📝 Note: If the customer has other products that are not a part of the blacklisted products, the customer can still earn points for those products.
