Refer a friend
Not only do referrals increase customer engagement but they are a great way to increase customer acquisition. Referrals allow you to thank the current customer with additional points. New customers will then get a discount voucher or free shipping to use on your store. It is a great way to gain new customers while keeping your existing customers engaged!
Tip: Research states that people are four times more likely to buy when referred by a friend
Reward birthdays
Provide your customers with extra points to make their birthday even more special! We recommend emailing your customers wishing them happy birthday with a ‘call to action’ to use their points.
As a store, you can choose whether to give your customers enough points to claim a reward on their birthday. Or maybe enough points to claim one of your free product vouchers!
Tip: Customers have disposable income on their Birthday! Using a reward incentivises them to your store, once here, they'll be more inclined to spend!
