At Wcart, we are constantly evolving to meet the needs of modern ecommerce businesses. Today, we are excited to announce our latest feature: Customer Reward Points system, designed for store owners who want to turn one-time buyers into loyal, repeat customers.
With customers jumping between different stores for better deals, this feature brings a proven way to boost customer retention while keeping your audience coming back for more.
Build Customer Loyalty in Just One Click
We’ve made it super simple to start rewarding your customers. With our new Customer Reward Points system, you can automatically reward every purchase right from your Wcart dashboard. Just enable it, and you’re ready to go. No coding, no waiting.
What are Customer Reward Points?
Instead of hoping customers return, you give them a reason to come back. Every purchase earns them points, which they can redeem for discounts and exclusive rewards.
Think of it like a digital punch card, but smarter. Customers buy from you, they collect points. When they shop again, they use those points for better deals.
Why it works:
- Customers feel rewarded for loyalty, not just first purchases
- People return because they have “money” saved up with you
- They think twice before shopping with competitors, they’d lose their points
- Higher order values as customers buy more to reach point thresholds
Simple concept – reward purchases automatically, let customers redeem points, watch them become loyal fans.
How Customer Reward Points Work
For Every Purchase:
- Customer places order and automatically earns points
- Points calculated based on your settings (1 point per ₹1 spent)
- Points added to their account immediately
- Clear breakdown of points earned with each order
When They Redeem:
- Customers see total available points in their account
- Apply points at checkout for instant discounts
- Points deducted automatically
- Mix points with other offers for maximum savings
Behind the Scenes:
- Complete transaction history tracking
- Automatic expiration management
- Search and filter tools for any transaction
- Real-time balance updates across devices
