1. Introducing Points Catalog & Rewards
Are you making the most out of your customer base? Do they keep returning to
your store to buy more? No, or just not as much as you would like? If that’s the
case, then Points Catalog & Rewards extension is just what you need!
Like many other things in life, it’s all about the incentives. The Points Catalog &
Rewards extension will put you on the path to the recurring sales and customer
satisfaction nirvana your store deserves.
With this extension, your Customers can receive reward points when placing
orders on your site. These points can then be exchanged for products on
checkout at a rate that you see fit. Whenever your customers go browsing
through your store, they will be notified about the number of points they can earn
by purchasing a product. You can also make them receive e-mails letting them
know that they have points to spend. Points Catalog & Rewards allows you to
setup a string of events with your Customers in order to incentivize them to earn
and spend points. Customers will certainly feel more encouraged to purchase at
your store when they can get some bonus for doing that!
Points Catalog & Rewards is a very flexible extension, giving you multiple paths
to incentivize customer spending. For instance, you can even allow customers to
use points they will earn with an order on that same order – providing that the
order is properly fulfilled. You will also be able to setup engagement campaigns,
for instance: Points per Account Creation, Points per Referral, Newsletters
subscription, and Product reviews, among others…
And on top of all those capabilities, it’s all configurable!
