Understanding discount cards
How discount cards work
Discount cards provide instant percentage-based savings on purchases. As customers spend more, they advance through tiers and unlock higher discount percentages.
Key characteristics:
Instant discounts applied at purchase
Progressive tiers with increasing percentages
Spending-based tier advancement
Automatic discount calculation
No points to redeem—savings are immediate
Example tier structure:
Bronze: 5% discount (starting tier)
Silver: 10% discount after $500 total spent
Gold: 15% discount after $1,000 total spent
Customer journey: Customer starts at Bronze (5% off). After spending $500 total across multiple visits, they move to Silver (10% off). All future purchases earn 10% discount until they reach Gold at $1,000.

Managing transaction amounts
Understanding transaction tracking
Transaction amounts determine both:

Discount calculation: System automatically calculates discount based on tier percentage
Adding transaction amounts
Record purchases to track spending and apply discounts.
Step 1: Access transaction amount
Locate the transaction amount section in the profile
Click the + (plus) icon
Step 2: Enter transaction details A popup appears with two fields:
Value: Enter the same figure as the Purchase Amount. The system uses this to calculate the exact discount value based on the customer's current tier.
Example:
Customer at Bronze tier (1% discount)
You enter: $50
System calculates: $0.50 discount (1% of $50)
Customer pays: $49.50
Purchase Amount: Enter the monetary value of the purchase—the actual transaction amount before discount.
Step 3: Apply changes Click Apply to save the transaction.
What happens:
Total spending increases by the amount entered
System calculates discount based on current tier percentage
Transaction appears as "discount amount" in history
Customer may advance to next tier if threshold is reached
LTV increases
Important: Both Value and Purchase Amount should typically be the same figure—the pre-discount transaction amount.
Subtracting transaction amounts
Remove transaction amounts for refunds or corrections.
Step 1: Access transaction amount
Locate the transaction amount section
Click the - (minus) icon
Step 2: Enter deduction details A popup appears with the same two fields:

Purchase Amount: Enter the monetary value being refunded or corrected.
Step 3: Apply changes Click Apply to save the adjustment.
What happens:
Total spending decreases by the amount entered
Transaction appears as "refund of amount spent" in history
Customer may drop to lower tier if spending falls below threshold
LTV adjusts accordingly
Common use cases:
Processing refunds
Correcting entry errors
Adjusting for returned items
Handling disputes
Understanding tier progression
How tiers advance
Tiers are based on total cumulative spending:
Spending accumulates across all purchases
When threshold is reached, customer automatically moves to next tier
New discount percentage applies to all future purchases
Previous purchases remain at the discount they received
Monitoring tier progression
Current tier: Shows customer's level Current percentage: Shows discount they receive Progress to next tier: Shows spending needed to advance
Example:
Customer at Bronze: 5% discount, $300 spent
Silver tier requires: $500 total spending
Progress: Needs $200 more to reach Silver
After next $200 in purchases: Moves to Silver (10% discount)

Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between Value and Purchase Amount? They should typically be the same—the pre-discount transaction amount. The system uses this to calculate the discount based on the customer's tier percentage.
Why enter the amount in both fields? Value determines tier progression tracking. Purchase Amount provides context for the transaction type. Best practice is to enter the same amount in both.
Do previous purchases get recalculated when customers advance tiers? No, previous purchases remain at the discount they received. Only future purchases get the new tier discount.
Can I manually move a customer to a higher tier? Yes, by adding transaction amounts to increase their total spending to meet the tier threshold.
What happens if spending drops below a tier threshold due to refunds? The customer drops back to the appropriate tier for their spending level. Future purchases receive the lower tier discount.
How is the discount calculated? System multiplies the purchase amount by the customer's current tier percentage. For example: $100 purchase × 5% = $5 discount.
Will customers be notified when they advance tiers? Their card updates automatically. Send a push notification to inform them of the advancement and new benefits.
Can I adjust the discount percentage for individual customers? Discount percentages are set at the card configuration level, not per customer. All customers at the same tier receive the same percentage.
What if I entered the wrong transaction amount? Subtract the incorrect amount using the minus button, then add the
