Things to Know
The basket subtotal is the sum of all qualifying items — this means tax, tip, and most other service charges will not be included.
Items that have been marked non-qualifying to earn points in the main program will also not qualify to earn bonus points.
Understanding how points work will help effectively design your points offers.
Use Multiply Points offer type with Date & Time, Purchase Items, Purchase Total, and Recurring campaign automations. For other automation types like Birthday, Next Visit, Visit Threshold, and Registration, you can achieve a similar effect by configuring a Recurring offer campaign with a custom target audience.
For Purchase Item and Purchase Total campaigns, members can claim their purchase anytime after it was made and qualify for the bonus points or offer, provided the purchase date falls within the valid campaign period. These campaigns base eligibility solely on the purchase window.
In contrast, other campaign types (e.g., Date & Time, Recurring, Registration) with a Multiply Points offer requires both the purchase window and offer validity at the time of redemption. Bonus points cannot be redeemed after the offer has expired, even if the purchase was made within the valid campaign period.
