Detailed Sections

Reward Types

You can create various types of rewards for your members. Here’s a breakdown of each type:

1. Manual Fulfillment

This type requires you to deliver the reward manually after a member claims it. The claim status will show as PENDING until you fulfill it.

  • Instructions: Provide any specific instructions for the member in the rewardValue field.

2. Promo Code

Automatically generates a single-use discount code when claimed. The code is displayed to the member and sent via email.

  • Configuration: Set the discount type (e.g., percentage) and the discount value.

3. Content Grant

Automatically enrolls the member in a course or journey upon claiming the reward.

  • Configuration: Specify the grant type (course or journey) and the content ID of the course or journey.

4. Gift Membership

Allows a member to gift a subscription to someone else. You’ll need the recipient's email at the time of claim.

  • Configuration: Include optional fields for the recipient's name and a personal message.

5. Access Level

Grants one or more access levels directly to the claiming member. You can select from a multi-select list of available access levels.

  • Configuration: You can set an optional Expires after (days) field. Leave it blank for permanent access.

Additional Settings

  • Points Cost: This is the number of points required for a member to claim the reward.

  • Max Claims: Optionally limit the total number of claims for this reward globally (not per user).

  • Expiry Date: Set an expiration date for the reward if applicable.

  • Toggle Active: You can enable or disable rewards as needed.

Managing Reward Claims

You can review all reward claims at App Station > Member Interactions > Reward Claims. Here, you can:

  • View claims by status: All, Pending, Fulfilled, or Rejected.

  • Fulfill or reject claims that are pending, adding any admin notes if necessary.

Points Cost and Configuration

When creating a reward, ensure you set a reasonable Points Cost based on the value of the reward. The Max Claims setting helps manage how many times a reward can be claimed, which can create scarcity and increase engagement.

Tips for Effective Reward Management

Tip: Regularly review the performance of your rewards and adjust the points cost or availability based on member engagement and feedback.

By configuring a variety of rewards, you can create a more engaging experience for your members, encouraging them to participate more actively in your app.
