Managing your location settings in the SQUID app is essential for ensuring accurate account information and a seamless user experience. Below are steps to enable location services and resolve common location-related issues.
The SQUID app uses location services to provide personalized features such as showing nearby rewards and helping you find places to spend your Wave Points.
Enabling Location Services
Enabling location services ensures the app displays businesses and rewards near your current location. Follow these steps to enable location services:
Open your phone’s Settings.
Navigate to Apps or Application Manager and select the SQUID app.
Tap on Permissions and enable Location Services.
Choose the option to allow location access only while using the app for privacy.
Finding Nearby Places to Spend Wave Points
Once location services are enabled, you can easily find places to spend your Wave Points:
Open the SQUID app and navigate to the Wave section.
Tap the Spend Points button at the top of the screen.
The app will display a list of nearby locations where you can redeem your Wave Points. This feature ensures you can make the most of your rewards at convenient locations.
Resolving Location and Currency Discrepancies
Understanding Business Locations and Loyalty Rewards
If you notice that the app shows a different location for a business, it’s important to know that:
Many businesses have multiple locations, but the app may display only the main location.
Your loyalty rewards and vouchers can be redeemed at any branch of the same business, not just the one shown in the app.
This means you don’t need to request location changes to use your rewards.
Some users may notice discrepancies in their account settings, such as the app displaying a different country or currency. This can occur due to specific feature limitations or errors.
For example:
If your account shows Ireland and euro settings while you are in another country, it may be due to an error allowing access to Ireland-specific features like Wave Points. Note that these features are only supported for Ireland-based accounts.
To resolve such issues:
Verify your account settings to ensure they match your current location.
If the issue persists, contact SQUID support for further assistance in updating your account details.
By following these steps and understanding how location settings work, you can optimize your experience with the SQUID app and enjoy seamless access to rewards and loyalty benefits. For additional support, refer to the app’s help section or contact customer service.
