Rivo: Loyalty Program, Rewards

*Edited*
Whatever updates have been made and messed up everything and been a MAJOR source of frustration. I have been on chat with support countless times, they gain collaborator access to "fix" the issue, it doesn't get fixed. My clients are still bombarding me with messages asking why they can't redeem their points and I'm seriously fed up. Do not recommend at all. It WAS working fine... It's awful now.

Our clients have really enjoyed earning rewards when shopping with us. Arianne was very helpful when I reached out to inquire about why some accounts were not earning their points and it was very quickly fixed! I was very impressed with their quick response and helping me change my settings. Highly Recommend

I understand that Jel, one of the customer service agents, may have been having a bad day, but that day turned into a significant issue for me. This all started when I accidentally deleted Rivo's landing page while cleaning out my Pages, which broke the connection between the Rivo platform and my shop. I reached out to customer service for documentation on how to fix it and included two screenshots to illustrate the issue. I also mentioned in passing that I wanted to remove a broken footer on the landing page I had left.

Unfortunately, Jel misunderstood or overlooked the 404 error screenshots and instead focused solely on the footer. She asked for access to my store and "fixed" the footer the way she thought it should be. The problem? In doing so, she unintentionally broke all the footers across my entire site. I revoked her access and followed up to inform her of the issue—not looking for a resolution, as I could fix it myself, but simply to let her know about the mistake. I also mentioned that her access had been revoked.

She quickly responded, claiming the problem had been fixed and asking me to check. This response was frustrating because it was both inaccurate and misleading. The issue was still unresolved, and even if she had attempted a fix within seconds, it couldn’t have saved without access to my store.

I clarified multiple times that I had already revoked access and was not comfortable granting it again due to the risk of further mistakes. As someone only a few hours into using Rivo, I really hope things improve from here. However, this combination of platform issues and a frustrating customer service experience has raised some red flags.

Originally gave a 5 star review because it was easy to set up only to find out that it really does not work. My customers cannot redeem their points and I am told "Redeeming points at checkout is only available in Shopify Plus plan merch which is $2300 a month. Plus if you modify the benefits of a VIP tier, the modifications do not update for existing members but only for new members. I was told to delete the benefit and add a new one but that still did not work. Such a waste of time. What is the purpose of a loyalty program if the customers cannot get any benefits. Now I want to download my customers with points so that I can add their points to a different program but there does not appear to be any download capabilities or print reports. Stay away. Over an hour on a chat with Jel and the results are that I am completely screwed.

We just tried to trial this product for our new website however we experienced some very deceptive and conduct through the sales funnel. It did not give us the option to select the free plan or trial at all (only a discount of the available paid offers), and tried to gain access to our website before even selecting what plan we would like. Funnily enough the free plan or free trial was not even an option. This is disgusting and misleading behaviour, and needless to say we will not be considering Rivo products again in future. Do better Rivo.

it’s not logical for your app to get paid for orders that I have generated myself.
I run ads > get customer orders > in this case, what benefit does your app provide to justify being paid?

Rivo leaves a bunch of installed items and applications on the site once uninstalled. This is unacceptable !

I am probably to stupid to start this app, but I was totally annoyed by the ongoing efforts of the company to upsell me to one of their pay programs. Too many pop-ups for my liking. Too many interruptions while trying to setting it up for a first trial.
Again, likely I am partly to be blamed, but I consider myself somewhat experienced with such apps.

Says free plan available - this is no free plan. It s a trial. After that it's $24 a month.

Listed under the available rewards you can offer was "Commission"; that reward was not available (at least in the free version).

Makes it impossible to cancel once you subscribe. I've asked them to cancel this subscription for the past month now and I'm still getting charged. Ridiculous business practice. Better options out there.
