Capture customer's marketing opt-in preference

When a new customer makes an in-store purchase, it's important that staff ask if they want to join their database and receive marketing via email and SMS.

⚠️ Important: By default, customers do not accept marketing, and they must opt-in to receive marketing through Marsello.

4. Scroll to Customer Options, next to Accepts marketing you can indicate the customer's marketing preferences.

  • If they accept marketing via email and SMS: Set the toggle to ON
    The customer will be able to receive store emails and SMS marketing via Marsello.

  • If they don't accept marketing via email and SMS: Ensure the toggle is set to OFF.
    The customer will not receive store emails or SMS marketing via Marsello.

5. Tap Save (scroll to the top-right-hand corner), the customer will then be added to the current sale.


6. Complete the sale

The customer will be automatically added to your Marsello customer database, including their details, accepts marketing preferences, and sales data.

Your customers' experience

New Customers

When you complete the sale, the customer is added to your loyalty program and Marsello customer database. Along with their purchase, they automatically earn loyalty points, and if you have the "Earned Points" email notification enabled, they will receive an email notifying them about the points they've earned, their updated loyalty points balance, and the number of points required to reach their next reward.

Plus, if the customer accepts marketing, they become eligible to receive your upcoming marketing campaigns and automation, providing a better engagement experience.
​

Existing Customers

When you complete the sale, they automatically earn loyalty points, and if you have the "Earned Points" the "Earned Points Email" feature turned on, they will automatically receive an email notifying them of the points they've earned for their recent purchase and the number of points required to reach their next reward.

Encouraging your staff to prompt customers to use their rewards at the point of sale creates a positive and delightful experience for customers, leaving them pleasantly surprised and fostering stronger customer loyalty.
