Features of the Store Credit Magento 2 extension

  • Customers can buy and gift their credit points

Users can purchase store credit on the frontend, that can be used for future purchases. The possibility of adding credit points to a credit balance saves the time at checkout for customers. Customers can also send their credit points as a gift to other users registered on your website.

  • Credit points can be applied to order placement

At checkout, customers can choose to pay a part of the price or the full price of a purchased product. This option simplifies and accelerates the whole checkout process. On the checkout page the available credit balance is visible to customers, so they can decide how much of their credit points they would like to spend on purchasing a product.

  • Add credit points to customer account on various events

Customers can earn credit points for the actions they perform on your store, like account registration, order placement, newsletter subscription, or leaving a product review. Assigning additional credit points to customers improves brand loyalty and incentivises customers to make more purchases.

  • Manage store credits per a customer

Store admins are enabled to view and manage store credits in the customers’ accounts. Here an admin can provide customers with additional credit points on different occasions. Thus, customers will be motivated to buy more on your store having some free credits in their account.

  • The full history of transactions made with store credits

Transaction history on the orders made using store credits is available both from the backend, and frontend. In this way, all details on fulfilled transactions are transparent to the customers in their My Account profile.

  • Easily manage refunds and returns

Possibility to have store credits simplifies the process of money refunds and product returns. Adding credit points to a customer account on the product return is the easiest and fastest way to handle a refund. The credit balance is automatically updated when the refund takes place.

Backend

Let’s see how the extension settings can be configured from the backend. To go to the configuration interface, navigate to Stores → Configuration and select MAGEDELIGHT → Store Credit from the left-side menu of the page.

For the convenience of a user, configuration settings are divided into four sections: License Configuration, General Settings, Credit Points Settings, and Pagination.  

First, you will need to enter your serial key and activation key in the License Configuration section. Serial and activation keys are part of your license that you get after you purchase the Store Credit plugin.

After you enter and save serial and activation keys, you will see available website domains in the “Select Website” field of the General Settings section. You can select one or a few domain names from the options listed there. To make the extension work on your web store, select Yes in the “Enable Module” setting.

In the Credit Points Settings, you can assign which customer groups will be able to use store credits. Here you can also set credit points to calculate currency value, e.g. 10 points per $1, as shown in the example below.

In this section, an admin user also decides whether to allow customers to purchase or refill their credit points on your storefront, as well as gift their store credits to friends. In any case, customers receive an email notification about refilling their credit points after they place an order or when they send credits as a gift. Gift receivers are also notified when credit points are sent to them. Email templates for every type of notification mentioned above can be configured in the same section.

The Store Credit plugin also lets admins set values for minimum and maximum limits of credit points customers can purchase from their account. You can also select email templates for credit or debit by admin.

Frontend

Now let’s see how the Store Credit module changes user experience from the frontend.

After installing the module, a customer account profile will get a new section, My Store Credit, where customers can view their credit balance and all transactions made using credit. To check and take actions with their store credit, registered users should go to My Account → My Store Credit on the frontend.

The extension allows customers to buy credit points from their account. Customers can later use these credit points for purchases on your store to accelerate a checkout process. The Store Credit section displays a customer’s current credit balance, as well as available minimal and maximal number of credit points that can be purchased. A customer can also choose to send their credit points as a gift to another registered user. By checking “Is Gift?”, “Receiver Email” and “Your Message” fields become available. Here customers should enter a gift recipient’s email and can add a personalised message. If a customer wants to spend their credit balance for a gift, they should check “Use Credit Balance”.
