Games
Games are free promotions inside the app. Shoppers spin a wheel, scratch a card or open a box. Some win a discount code.
Status: off by default. Plan: Enterprise only. Turn on the games switch after you create a game and add its codes.
The three games#
- Spin wheel
- Scratch card
- Mystery box
Rules that keep games free#
- Shoppers never pay to play. No purchase, points spend or other payment is needed.
- Prizes are discount codes. Prizes are not cash or gift cards.
- You set the odds and the prize list.
- Free prize draws can fall under local promotion or lottery rules. You are responsible for the terms you publish.
Set up a game#
- Open Games and press New.
- Add prizes and set the weight of each one. A higher weight wins more often.
- For each code prize, add discount codes. You create the codes in Shopify first. The app does not create discount codes for you.
- Set limits per device and per customer. Choose the period: lifetime, day or week.
- Set the start and end dates. Save.
How a prize is given#
- Each code is given out once.
- A prize with no codes left, or no stock left, drops out of the draw.
- The result is decided on the server. The phone only shows the animation.
Stats#
The game page shows plays and prize counts.
Note on sample data#
In the build as it stands, the prize stock and win counts in the admin page were tested with sample data. Check the counts against your Shopify codes before you run a big promotion.
