Posted January 9th, 2008 by thisnthat

Any chance of adding a reward scheme point system into the shopping system?

Maybe

Maybe something is possible. It seems to depend on the way You want to calculate the reward points and what You want to do with the calculation result.

Could You please describe in greater detail, what might the system that You wish for, look like?

Sorry for the late reply...not been on the forums for a while...

Earn points for buying items, the points can be turned in credits for items.

Basically if I spend £10 I get 1 point, spend £20 I get 2 points, spend £25 still only get 2 points

Use the credits stored in your account to claim on purchases.

A few features that I'd like are;

Configure a default site wide point per amount spent.
Able to set special reward rates per item
Able to omit an item from the reward scheme

Set a parameter on products that you can use to not allow you to spend the rewards on purchasing the specific item.

eg
I've spent £150 with 3 orders of £50 so I've got 15 points.
Convert that into £15, I cant use the credits for Product #0001, but can for #0002, #0003, etc

If I want to order product #0001 I have to buy something else as well.

If I use my rewards to buy #0001 (£5) & #0002(£8) total payment due is £5 (because #0001 is not included), remaining rewards will not be 15 - 8 = 7 (only spent £5 on that order so does not quality for any rewards).

I think that's about it :-)
