Credit Based Benefits

Credit based benefits give members "points" (or credits) for taking specific actions such as signing up for your membership program or referring a friend to your store.
Credits are generated as Shopify order discount codes, which cannot be combined with Shopify product discount or codes, such as auto-apply discounts. The full Shopify documentation is available here.
Member Credit Redemption (All Stores)
When your members receive credits, they are are able to redeem them from their Member Portal. In this flow, a member will redeem the amount of credits they want to use, copy the code, and then paste it as a discount code during the checkout flow.
Member Credit Redemption (Shopify Plus Stores Only)
If your store is on Shopify Plus, you also have access to the Credit Redemption Checkout Extension. On Plus Stores, members are able to redeem their credits and apply them to their order directly from the checkout flow, without needed to visit their Member Portal.
Your Inveterate account must be set up to use Discount Codes as credits and not Gift Cards as credits. If you are not sure or would like to switch to Discount Codes, feel free to contact us.

Pro Tip: Give your members multiple ways to earn credits. This will boost your website engagement and member AOV.
