Turn off Lightspeed Retail (X-Series) POS Loyalty
Convert Lightspeed Retail (X-Series) POS Loyalty into Marsello Points
If your Lightspeed Retail (X-Series) POS Loyalty settings will match your Marsello earning settings:
Here's a couple of examples:
IF you have $1 = $1 Loyalty in Lightspeed Retail (X-Series) POS
THEN in Marsello your Making a purchase earn rule should be set to
'Earn 1 point for every $1 spend'
📝 Note: This is the default Making a purchase setting in Marsello
IF you have $5 = $1 Loyalty in Lightspeed Retail (X-Series) POS
THEN in Marsello your Making a purchase earn rule should be set to
'Earn 1 point for every $5 spend'
If you have decided to create a new Marsello loyalty program from scratch, then you may need to convert your customers' Lightspeed Retail (X-Series) POS loyalty balances to match your new earning points rules:
For example:
IF you have $10 = $1 Loyalty in Lightspeed Retails (X-Series) POS and
IN Marsello, your Making a purchase earn rule is 'Earn 1 point for every $1 spend'
THEN to convert your customers' Lightspeed Retail (X-Series) POS Loyalty $ to Marsello's Loyalty points, you need to multiply the balances by 10 to update their balance to match with your Marsello's points earning rule
