The Custom program feature allows you to create informational entries that appear in your "Ways to earn" section but don't award points. Unlike standard earning programs that give customers points for specific actions, custom programs serve as informational or navigational elements within your loyalty interface. Each custom program includes an icon, description, and optional URL link. These custom entries seamlessly integrate with your regular point-earning programs in the loyalty widget and page, creating a more comprehensive loyalty experience without disrupting your existing reward structure.
Custom programs significantly expand the versatility of your loyalty interface by bridging the gap between informational content and your rewards system. By incorporating non-point-awarding entries alongside standard earning opportunities, you can showcase exclusive services or benefits that enhance your loyalty program's perceived value beyond simple point accumulation.
This feature is particularly valuable for highlighting tier-specific rewards within your "Ways to earn" section, providing seamless navigation to important resources, or creating a more comprehensive view of your brand's offerings. Custom programs enable you to maintain a cohesive loyalty experience while directing customers to specific resources or information that complement your rewards structure, ultimately creating a richer, more useful customer experience that supports both engagement and education.
