FAQ
Q. Why aren't my rewards notifications showing?
Due to technical limitations, the rewards notifications do not work with seamless rewards yet. As you have 0 eligible rewards, the notification is hidden otherwise it would be empty; if they were to set up another kind of reward the notification would show.
