Question 1

What kind of loyalty programs can I create with Maestra?

Accepted Answer

Maestra lets you design loyalty programs that fit your business — whether that’s a simple points system or a multi-tier experience.
You can mix and match different reward structures, like points, discounts, cash back, or special perks, and set flexible redemption rules (e.g., &laquo;1 point = $1, up to 50% of a purchase can be paid in points&raquo;).
If you want to go further, you can build tiers based on spend or points earned. Each tier can unlock unique benefits — higher discounts, exclusive product access, early sale previews, free shipping, and more.

Question 2

Can I launch challenges to encourage reviews and user-generated content?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can gamify engagement by rewarding points for specific actions. For example, give rewards when customers:
Follow you on social media
Share their birthday or phone number
Make a purchase
Leave a review or upload review photos
Provide feedback
Every action is fully customizable, so you can design challenges that encourage the behaviours most valuable to your business.

Question 3

Can I run targeted promotions in my loyalty program?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can create highly targeted promotions using the full range of customer data — for example, win-back offers for loyal customers at risk of churning.
You can even trigger real-time promotions based on behavior (like offering 10% off add-ons right at checkout).
And you can set rules by:
Products: individual SKUs or categories
Channels: website, app, in-store (all stores or just one location)
Timing: limited periods or recurring campaigns

Question 4

How quickly can I set up a loyalty program?

Accepted Answer

On Shopify, setup takes just a few clicks with our app. For other simple stacks, share your program rules with your dedicated Customer Success Manager, and you’re ready to launch.
More complex integrations, like offline POS systems, typically take 1–1.5 months.

Question 5

Can I launch personalized promotions without a loyalty program?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. You can run promotions for everyone (like Buy One Get One Free or Happy Hour specials) or for specific groups, even highly targeted. For example, you could offer a double discount on outerwear to customers who bought twice this year but never in that category.

Question 6

How can I control which promotion applies if several overlap?

Accepted Answer

You set the rules. Define which promotion takes priority, decide if offers can stack, or choose to apply only the most valuable discount.

Question 7

How can I use loyalty data in communication?

Accepted Answer

It works out of the box — no extra integrations needed. Loyalty data can power segments and automated messages, like sending early sale access to Gold members or a reminder about points that are about to expire.
You can also show loyalty details directly in your communications:
Current tier and progress to the next
Points balance
Expiring points
Available vouchers or coupons
Personalized prices and offers
And you can use this data across all customer touchpoints — email, SMS/RCS, push notifications, messengers, website personalization, in-apps, receipts, call center scripts/CRM — even at the POS for cashiers.

Question 8

How do you measure the success of a loyalty program?

Accepted Answer

Key metrics include program reach, average discount, points redemption rates, and average order value. For promotions, you also get detailed analytics and the option to A/B test.

Question 9

How is the referral program set up — links or codes?

Accepted Answer

Both. You can choose whichever works best.

Question 10

How can I invite customers to the referral program?

Accepted Answer

You can send invites through any channel, anytime. Common touchpoints include after order delivery, a positive NPS response, loyalty program signup, or when a customer reaches a new tier. For extra visibility, add referral reminders to bulk campaigns.

Question 11

What options do I have for configuring referral rewards?

Accepted Answer

Referral rewards can be points, discounts, or gifts, with optional conditions (e.g., only for orders above a certain amount). Both the referrer and the invited friend can get rewards.

Question 12

Can I track how many referrals a customer has made and adjust rewards accordingly?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can track referral count per customer and assign rewards based on the number of successful referrals.

Question 13

How do you handle promo code pools and discount management?

Accepted Answer

You have full control over promo code setup and usage rules. Create discounts, cashback, gifts, free shipping, and more, with flexible conditions for validity, eligibility, and application.
Code formatting is customizable too: set length, add prefixes (e.g., WELCOME for new customers or MISS-YOU for win-back campaigns), and even exclude symbols as needed.
What if my promotion is set up on my ecommerce platform, but I want Maestra to generate the promo codes?
No problem. You can generate promo code pools in Maestra and sync them automatically with platforms like BigCommerce or Shopify, then attach them to the promotions you’ve already set up there.

Question 14

Can I generate promo codes on my side and use them in Maestra?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can create both single-use and reusable promo codes.

Question 15

Can I display personal prices on the website and in emails?

Accepted Answer

Yes. If a customer has a 10% discount and a product costs $29, Maestra dynamically renders the actual price they’ll pay ($26.10) and shows it across all channels — website, app, email, SMS, push, paid ads, and more.

Question 16

Does Maestra handle the entire migration process?
