This feature is only available for Shopify and WordPress only, where you can add extra configurations to let your players create different types of coupons.
Types of redeemable coupons
At Gameball we currently offer the following customizable types of redemption in addition to the default redemption settings.
Flat Rate discount: By default, once you set an equivalent value for points, a flat rate discount could be applied by players.
Percentage Discount: Players can exchange a defined amount of points for a fixed percentage discount coupon; for example, you can make players configure a 10% discount coupon for 1000 points.
Fixed Amount: Players can exchange number of points for a fixed discount, for example, you can offer a $15 coupon in exchange for 750 points. This does not have to follow the monetary value you have previously given to points for the flat-rate discounts.
Free Shipping: Give your players the ability to convert a specific amount of points to a free shipping coupon.
Free Product: Give your players the ability to convert a specific amount of points to get a specific product. You can also specify a variant of a certain product to be exclusively subjected to redemption in the form of a coupon.
POS Fixed Amount Coupon (Shopify): Players making purchases in-store can now exchange their points with a fixed amount. Ex. 2000 points for USD20 discount coupon.
POS percentage Coupon (Shopify): Players making purchases in-store can now exchange their points with a percentage discount coupon. Ex. 2000 points for 20% discount coupon.
❗️❗️ Important note: you can create redemption rules with the fixed amount and percentage-based discounts that are applicable to specific categories/collections only. Learn more
Customize Extra Redemption Rules
On your Gameball Admin Dashboard, from the ledt bar, click Ways to Redeem.
To configure points redemption rules other than the default rule, scroll down and follow the below steps:
Click Add ways to redeem beside Ways to Redeem section.
You will be asked to configure a few settings:
Redemption Type: Where you select an option for redemption, either free shipping, free products, or a percentage-based discount.
Equivalent Points: Where you set the equivalent points for the selected redemption type (voucher).
Tag Players: If you want this specific redemption rule/coupon available only to a certain group of players you have, you can add a tag that this group of players has. Learn to group your players by tags.
❗️❗️Important notes:
In case you choose a percentage-based discount type, you will be required to enter the percentage discount value.
In case you choose a free Product type, you will be required to select the product which will be granted for free in exchange for the voucher.
For Shopify users, in case you choose a free Product type, you could choose certain variants of that product to be redeemed. For example, the free product could be "brown round tea table" instead of "tea table."
you can create redemption rules with the fixed amount and percentage-based discounts that are applicable to specific categories/collections only. Learn more
When you are done configuring the extra redemption rule, click Save. You can then see the newly created rules under Extra Rules.
You can hide the flat rate discount from the player widget by clicking on the Hide Icon next to the rule.
How to create "Giveaways" vouchers
If you want to let your players get a free product without exchanging it with some of their points, here is what you need to do:
Repeat the same steps of creating an extra redemption rule.
When you get to the "Equivalent Points" step, type down zero (0).
Proceed with the rest of the configuration steps.
This way when a player opens the redemption section on the widget, they will see that there are coupons they can redeem for free (without having to exchange points for them.)
❗️Note: Giveaway vouchers are only applicable to "Free Product" and "Free Shipping" redemption rules.
How to create redemption rules for specific collections/categories only?
On your Gameball Admin Dashboard, from the ledt bar, click Ways to Redeem
Click Add ways to redeem beside Ways to Redeem section.
Write down the value of the new coupon.
If you are creating a fixed amount or percentage-based discount, scroll down to choose Specific Collection/s. Learn more
Choose the collections you want this redemption rule to be exclusively for, and click Save.
How do players learn about this?
The new extra settings appear in the widget under the redemption tab along with the default rule.
❗️Note: Your players will be able to view the “Redeem Now” button only when they have gained points (points balance is above zero).
