Introduction
Points Advanced Settings in Eber provide businesses with powerful control over their loyalty points program through two key functions: points expiry and points withholding period. These settings help businesses manage their loyalty program more effectively by setting time limitations on points usage and implementing verification periods for transactions.
Key Benefits
Better control over points lifecycle with customizable expiry periods
Improved transaction verification through withholding periods
Prevention of premature points redemption
Enhanced flexibility in managing different types of point rewards
Step by Step Guide
Access the Loyalty in your Eber dashboard
Look for the Points Advanced Settings tab
Create a name for your specific point rule - This helps identify different types of points in your system. For example, you could name it "Welcome Points" for points given to new customers
Set the points expiry duration - Define how long points remain valid. For instance, setting a 30-day expiry for Welcome Points can encourage customers to make repeat visits within that timeframe
Configure the withholding duration - This creates a delay between when points are earned and when they become available for use. For example, a 14-day withholding period gives you time to verify transactions and prevent premature redemptions
The Point Advanced Settings option should be visible if it is applicable to certain points rules.
Tips
Choose expiry periods that align with your customer engagement goals
