Eber's auto upgrading function allows you to automatically upgrade your members to the next tier based on their spending or point accumulation. Not only will this make your member feel more competitive, but it will also make your member feel more valuable for being a part of your programme.

Aside from that, an auto downgrade function is offered to return less active members to the default tier, allowing you to preserve your best marketing strategy and benefits for higher tier members.

Important: Please keep in mind that only one upgrade and one downgrade rule can be accommodated at the same time. This means that if you choose the "Spend" condition for a specific tier, you cannot configure "Earn Points" for other tiers.

Also, depending on your business needs, you can have only upgrade rules and no downgrade rules.


To Edit or To Delete A Rule

You will be able to see the rules from the main page once you have completed the condition setup.

Click the "Pencil" icon to edit the rule.

Click the "Minus" icon to delete the rule.


A Brief Overview of Advance Setting

When you click in to the rule that you established, you will notice your rule now have 2 tabs - The one you configured initially is under "General", while there's new tab under "Advanced".

Advance settings are optional and are mostly used for downgrade rules or revamping programme structure such as:

  • "Only include Points or Spending after this date" - For programme structure changes that do not affect existing members.

  • "Member tier remained unchanged for X days" - To prevent members from dropping multiple tiers at the same time).

  • "Run on specific date".

  • "Change member status to "Inactive" upon downgrade".

  • "Reduce member points to X amount upon downgrade".

Configuring the advance setting may be complicated based on your rules. If you wish to learn more about it, please contact our Customer Success team for guidance.
