Loyalty programs: Customer Categories

You can use customer categories in your loyalty program rules to offer customers values which will depend on the assigned category as well as to inform customers about reaching a certain status.

Important: Now, you can transfer the customer from one category to another by setting up and applying a rule in the Сustomer categories settings.

Also, you can assign the category of customers in the tab Customers: use the filters to select the required customer then push the “Action” button and use the  “Change customer category” item.

All customers, when you add them to the brand, are automatically assigned to the “New customers” category. In the Customer Category section you can create additional categories (the green “Add category” button on the right side), edit or disable categories, created earlier.

ATTENTION! If you have customers in your category, you cannot disable the category.

Customer category title
Use the category title for easy category management in the future.

Public name
Enter the category name that will be displayed in the inCust mobile app for customers and in customer notifications about category assignment.

Important: Please, include information in all possible languages. The name in the inCust mobile application is shown to customers in the language that is chosen as primary in the phone settings. So if you fill in the information in English only, a  customer with a phone set to Spanish will not see your information.
