Spend Reduction Method

The reduction Method defines how the amount requested to be spent by the contact during a purchase event will be deducted from the total amount to be paid.

There are two reduction methods:

Front-end Reduction is made by a front-end system (e.g. POS) by instantly applying the reduction to the total amount to be paid by the contact. Hence the customer pays the reduced amount.

Back-end Reduction is made by a back-end system (e.g. PayPal) where the contact pays the full amount, and they are credited through a payment gateway system or by generating a refund voucher.

In the context of Rewards (single Merchant and multi-merchant environment), the reduction method may vary per Merchant depending on the integration and the API used to post-purchase customer events.

Rewards Settlement

Ability to define merchant agreements and perform a reward settlement process

  • setup reward settlement

  • calculate and invoice/refund a merchant

  • create and manage a merchant agreement (consider having an expiration date on such agreements - on expiration, the Merchant cannot award/spend contacts)

Merchant agreements allow the business to define the schemes its merchants can participate in and their corresponding contributions. In addition, the business can define whether settlement takes place for its merchants on the award or on the spend.

The settlement process charges participating organisations (typically merchants) the cost of awards. The settlement creates financial transactions either in real-time or in set frequencies, such as daily.

Rewards Merchant Commercial Terms 

Merchant commercial terms are the agreements between the business and the individual merchants who will be participating in the reward schemes. Terms include the agreed commercial terms for the Merchant:

a) The reward schemes that the Merchant will contribute towards the contact's awards or spends.

b) The contribution fee that the Merchant will be debited for on an award/spend (calculated based on a percentage of the award/spend, defaults to 100%).

c) The management fee that the Merchant will be debited for, for the use of service (calculated based on a percentage of the awarded amount, defaults to 0%).

d) The date that the agreement was made and its termination date (if any).

Blocking a merchant denotes that the Merchant can no longer award contacts, nor can contacts redeem their awards at that Merchant.
