Blacklist customers to exclude certain customer groups such as staff, suppliers, and other types of customers from your loyalty program

Updated over a week ago

For Cin7 Omni merchants
​(Formerly known as Cin7 POS)

By default, all customers and product categories are enrolled in your loyalty program.
However, you have the option to blacklist (exclude) specific customers and/or products. Blacklisting customers allows you to exclude particular customer groups such as employees, suppliers, and other types from your loyalty program. Similarly, blacklisting product categories enables you to exclude certain products from your loyalty program, preventing customers from earning points for purchasing these items.

How it works – Your customers' experience
