        Reward types

        There are various types of redeemable rewards to choose from depending on your eCommerce platform.

        • Fixed Amount Cash Discount - With the Cash Discount reward you can create a set of predefined fixed amount discounts based on the points value system that you define. This option is available for Shopify and Shopify Plus merchants on all Loyalty & Referrals plans.
        • Any Amount Cash Discount - With the Cash Discount reward you can create a set of predefined fixed amount discounts, or allow customers to redeem any amount of points in exchange for their desired discount at checkout
        Any amount cash discounts are available for:
        • Shopify Plus only
        • Yotpo Loyalty & Referrals Gold, Platinum, and Enterprise plans
        • Percentage Discount (available on Platinum and Enterprise plans)- Offer customers a set percentage off their purchase
        • Custom Coupon(available on Platinum and Enterprise plans) - Use a Custom Coupon to create rewards that will be applied on a platform that does not directly integrate with Yotpo Loyalty & Referrals
        • Free Shipping (available on Platinum and Enterprise plans) - Offer customers free shipping on their purchase
        • Free Product (available on Platinum and Enterprise plans) - Customers can redeem their points for a free product. To implement the Free Product reward option, you need to use the Free Product Redemption Module.
        • Custom Reward (available on Enterprise plan)- Use a Custom Reward to offer your customers unique experiences, donations to charities, raffle entries and more
        • Cart fixed amount (available on Enterprise plan) - Create fixed amount discounts that your customers can redeem directly on the cart page right before they check out. This reward is script-based, which means the customer doesn’t have to manually copy and paste the reward code on the cart page since it will automatically apply at checkout.
        Please note:
        Cart fixed amount is commonly used for stacking rewards at the point of checkout.
