- Give X points to customers: You can fix a certain number of points given for each product.
- Give X points for every spent Y: You can set points you will give to your customers when they spend an amount of money. For example, you can set that “10 points for every $5 spent”. It means that if your shoppers spend $5 for any products, they will gain 10 points at once. In this case, X (points) = 10 points, and Y (money step) = $5
- Give X points as final product price: When setting this type, your purchaser will earn some points equal or over the price of the purchased product. For instance, when you set X = 30 points, your customers will get 30 points if the price of the product is equal or over $30.
