The final addition to the voucher module upgrading involves the voucher targeting options. We are now equipping you with the ability to reward all your registered customers with vouchers, regardless of their membership tiers.
What’s different from the existing, “Everyone” option?
Able to limit to 1 redemption per customer? | Require customers to be tagged to order? | Does the customer have to be part of either a customer group or a membership tier | |
---|---|---|---|
Everyone | ❌ | ❌ | – |
All Registered Customers | ✔️ | ✔️ | ❌ |
Customer Group / Membership Tier | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ |
The newly introduced “All Registered Customers” option still allows you to award vouchers to everyone, as long as the customer is tagged to the order. This feature serves as the middle ground to offering vouchers to everyone while limiting the redemption to 1 per customer.
Now reach out to all your loyal customers with the new “All registered customers” option to reward them with a thank-you gift!
