FAQs

  1. What currency do you use to calculate the points rewards?

We work with the store's main currency which works in your Shopify admin.

All points will be converted to the main currency and then the reward rate will be implemented to this total amount.

  1. Are shipping and taxes included in the calculation of points rewarded?

If you choose the reward customer on the amount they spent as below, then it is: no, they are not.

We will only add up the total price of the products matching the conditions (you can whitelist some of the products out of the program) in the order.

  1. How can I exclude orders from other platforms in my loyalty program?

You can use the "Check if" conditions to exclude orders coming from non-Shopify sources. In your loyalty program settings:

Go to the "Check if" section > Select "Order" > Choose "exclude orders by tags" > Add the tag that identifies non-Shopify orders or the platform you don't want to add rewards (e.g., "external-platform")

  1. Do I need to tag my external orders?

Yes. You'll need to ensure all orders from external platforms are consistently tagged in your Shopify admin.
