What types of rewards can customers redeem?

Introduction

With Roadmap Loyalty, customers can redeem their points in multiple ways — all without needing to enter manual discount codes. Redemption happens directly in the cart or checkout, making the process seamless and frustration-free.

1. Discounts

  • Customers can exchange points for money off their order.
  • Supported options:
    • Fixed-amount discounts (e.g. $10 off).
    • Percentage discounts (e.g. 15% off).
  • Roadmap automatically applies the discount in the cart or checkout.
  • If checkout is abandoned, the discount is canceled and points are instantly returned.

👉 Example: Redeem 1,000 points for $10 off your next order.

2. Free Products or Samples

  • Customers can redeem points for a specific product or gift.
  • The product is added automatically to the cart when redeemed.
  • Great for:
    • Samples (e.g. Redeem 500 points for a skincare mini).
    • Low-cost accessories (e.g. Redeem 1,000 points for a tote bag).

3. Tier Upgrades & VIP Perks

  • Customers who reach higher tiers may unlock special rewards like:
    • Faster point earning rates.
    • Exclusive discounts or free shipping.
    • Early access to new products.

👉 Example: Gold Tier = 1.5x points per $1 + free shipping on all orders.

4. Referral Rewards

  • Customers who refer friends can redeem their referral rewards:
    • Points.
    • Discounts.
    • Free products.
  • Example: “Refer a friend and get 500 points when they place their first order.”

5. Custom Perks (Optional)

  • Depending on your program, you may offer unique redemption options like:
    • Early access to sales.
    • Event invitations.
