Discover the various pathways to empower your customers to progress through tiers and unlock exclusive benefits tailored to their engagement. Motivate them to spend more time on your platform and become more active participants in your community.

In this article, we will dive deeper into gameball's tiering methods and how you can set them up.

Understanding Tier Progression Methods

At the core of Gameball's tier system lies the ability to define how customers ascend through tiers. By default, all customers start at the initial tier, which serves as the foundation for their journey. While this tier cannot be removed, its attributes can be adjusted to align with your strategy. Learn more about setting up tiers.

Enhancing Tier Advantages

As customers progress to higher tiers, they gain access to enhanced benefits such as fixed discounts and increased point earnings. These rewards incentivize continued engagement and foster a sense of value for loyal customers. Learn more about tiers benefits.

Choosing a Tier Progression Method

To select a tier progression method that aligns with your objectives, consider the following approaches:

  1. Amount Spent:

    Base tier progression on customers' spending habits. The more they invest in purchases, the quicker they ascend through tiers.

  2. Points Earned:

    Reward customers with points for their engagement and activity on your platform. Points serve as a universal metric reflecting achievements and can be redeemed for various rewards. Earning more points helps them progress to different tiers.

  3. Orders Completed:

    Prioritize tier advancement based on the number of orders customers fulfill. Each completed order contributes to their progression, regardless of the order value.

  4. Friends Referred:

    Encourage customers to expand your community by referring friends. Tier progression is tied to the number of successful referrals, incentivizing customers to grow your user base.

  5. Score:

    Introduce a holistic tier progression system that rewards customers for a range of actions beneficial to your platform. Score complements points by recognizing non-monetary contributions, such as referrals and reviews.

    With Score, you can design a comprehensive rewards system that encompasses various elements beyond monetary value. Assign scores to specific tasks and achievements, allowing customers to accumulate points based on their contributions to your platform. Score serves as a reflection of their status and tier, distinct from the monetary value of points.

Changing the Tiering up method:

  • All Customers will keep their collected data/points.

  • Gameball will recalculate the levels of the customers based on the newly chosen method from the beginning.

  • All customers' data will be updated accordingly.

  • In the case of downgrading, and the current chosen method is not available in the new plan, the system will switch to “Amount Spent” and it will recalculate the levels of the players accordingly.
