Points Rules (Pro)

Points Rules go beyond the store-wide rates. Earning rules add bonus ways to collect points, and redeeming rules add reward types richer than a flat discount. The tab has two sub-sections: Points Earning and Points Redeeming.

Go to DevDiggers Plugins → LoyaltyX, then open the Points Rules tab.

The LoyaltyX Points Rules list with earning rules and their types

Both sub-sections share the same columns:

  • Name is your label for the rule.
  • Type is what the rule does.
  • Priority decides which rule wins when more than one could apply.
  • Start Date and End Date limit a rule to a date range, which suits a seasonal promotion.
  • Status shows whether the rule is active.

Use Add New to create a rule, Edit to change one, and Set Active or Set Inactive to switch rules on or off without deleting them.

An earning rule awards bonus points for an action. Types include:

  • Purchase for extra points on specific products, categories or roles.
  • Sign Up and Welcome bonus for new accounts.
  • Birthday points on a customer’s birthday.
  • Daily Login points for visiting each day.
  • Referral points when a customer refers a friend who buys.
  • Review points for leaving a product review.
  • Level-Up points for reaching a loyalty tier.

A redeeming rule defines a reward a customer can claim with points. Types include:

  • Fixed Discount and Percentage Discount off the order.
  • Free Shipping on the order.
  • Free Product added at no cost.
  • Buy X Get Y and Bundle rewards for set combinations.

When two rules could apply to the same action, the higher Priority wins. Use Start Date and End Date to run a rule for a limited time, then let it switch off on its own.
