FAQ

Is there any change in how transactions are recorded for accounts that use the membership service?

No, transactions via API or any interface are recorded as usual. The system applies the membership level multiplier based on the configuration in the membership module. The account activity section will show in the description field the membership level and multiplier (e.g. Gold (x2) when multiplier has been applied to any transaction.

Do redemptions affect the point count for a customer to belong to a membership level?

No, the membership service includes all the points earned by the consumer (positive transactions) during a the set period of time configured in the membership program.

Example:
Rewards Member: at enrollment
Gold Level: 25.000 pts min in the last 12 months, 2x bonus pts
Silver Level: 10.000 pts min in the last 12 months, 1.5x bonus pts

John has earned 13,000 points over the last 8 months, but his current balance is 3,000 points because he redeemed a 10,000 points reward last week. John will continue to be a Silver level member because the redemption does not affect the points that he has earned over the las 12 month.

Is the membership level for each customer updated by the system in real time?

Membership levels are checked and updated by the system everyday at midnight for each account timezone. The system then will move customers from one level to another based on the membership program configuration.

How can customers see the amount of qualified points or visits accumulated so far?

The qualified points or visits accumulated balance appears in the customer information section of the interface and is also included in the API response of any API call that returns the customer information.
The system also returns the amount of points or visits needed to get to the next membership level.

Example:
– JA Rewards Club
– Earned last 12 months= 15,835 points
– Needed for Gold = 34,165 points
