✍🏼Hi Derek here, one of the members of the team of Loloyal, and I am privileged to share with you the moment of functional updates about Loloyal.
We are excited to announce that today we have launched a brand new feature: Specific product discount feature!
Feature Highlights
Loloyal allows merchants to link coupons to specific products, ensuring that discounts are only applied to the items merchants want to promote. This feature is particularly beneficial in the following scenarios:

During a product launch, merchants can create exclusive coupons for new items to attract customers to try them and boost product exposure.
2. Clearance Sales
For slow-moving inventory, merchants can use product-specific coupons to drive sales and reduce stock pressure.
3. Seasonal Campaigns
Offer discounts on seasonal or limited-time products to encourage urgency and maximize sales during shopping events such as Christmas, Halloween, or Back-to-School.
4. Exclusive Member Offers:
Provide special discounts on selected products for loyal customers or VIP members, making them feel valued and encouraging repeat purchases.
5. Category-Specific Discounts
Apply discounts to products in a particular category, like discounts for summer clothing during warmer months, or electronics for back-to-school season.
By leveraging this feature, merchants can customize their discount strategies, focus on their key products, and achieve greater marketing efficiency.

👉🏻

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can I create more than one "Visit a URL" way to earn points?
- Yes, you can create as many as you'd like.
2. How do customers earn points for visiting a URL?
- Customers earn points for visiting a URL in a similar way to Social Media-based earning methods. Points are awardedshortly after the customer clicks the button. Therefore, it’s important that your Action Name clearly describes what you want the customer to do once they visit the URL. For example, if your goal is to make customers Join your community on Discord, a poor Action Name would be "Join our community on Discord," whereas a more effective Action Name would be "Join our community on Discord and get special rewards"

We have extensively updated the data performance analysis of the loyalty system. We hope these improvements will help you run your loyalty system more efficiently.
📈Point Balance Table
This table shows the points collected and used by all store users within a specific period. By analyzing this data, we can evaluate the efficiency of point issuance. At the same time, this table can also show the current balance of points that shoppers can redeem for coupons, which helps us predict the future costs required to operate an effective loyalty system.
In addition, by analyzing the ratio of points used to points earned, we can assess the operational effectiveness of the loyalty system. At the same time, looking at the number of expired points helps to evaluate the rationality of the points expiration policy.
📈Members and Non-Members Analysis Table
This table can be used to analyze whether the system effectively encourages more members to redeem coupons and to compare the ratio of members to non-members. With this data, we can develop more effective loyalty system strategies to enable users to become loyal members.
📈Referral Table
Through the statistics of tables and line charts, the operating effect of the referral system can be efficiently analyzed. This data will help us develop more effective loyalty system strategies, reduce advertising costs, and create a more efficient referral system.
💰 We hope these updates will help your business thrive and prosper.🚀
