What are Reward Offers?

Reward offers Offers are used to define an amount of money that will be awarded based on customer events, and/or the conditions specified on each reward offer. Reward offers also define the spend conditions such as on what products and to which organisational units the cashback can be spend. There exist various types of Reward Offers that you can set up in the system, each one offering you different award and spend conditions. According to the type selected the related Rewards Award and Spend conditions will be loadeddetermine amounts of money awarded for Customer Events or any other awarded actions of Reward Participants and to specify the conditions for awarding amounts and for spending the awarded amount.  The conditions can limit the redemption of awards to specific products and at particular Organisational Units (merchants).

Various Reward Offer Types can be set up in the System using different Reward Offer Classifications, each one offering different Award and Spend Conditions.
