Smile: Loyalty & Rewards

Love the app! It's great :) my only note would be two things, automatic point integration of previous purchases by customers when integrating with your store, and second, I would have an email capability to email those customers what their points balance is. This is especially helpful for a store that didn't launch with a loyalty program but is creating one later and has a great customer base who would appreciate an email like this.

We've loved using Smile for our Rewards Program platform, it's easy to use not just for customers but for us as well on the back end. The customer service is quick, friendly, and helpful while getting the information across in an easy-to-understand fashion. Jade was extremely helpful in helping me make sure Smile was integrated properly into our other sales channels.

I am using the free plan because we are just getting started in our ecommerce journey. Already the app is super easy to navigate, very intuitive and user friendly. I had some questions about where the nudge feature would show up and Nicole was very kind, and answered all of my questions. When I expressed how I was already interested in upgrading to use all the fun features she offered us a free trial for the upgraded version! Now that is some customer service. Made me smile ;-)

We really enjoy Smile! It’s a bit on the expensive side (but what good programs aren’t?), but the customer service is great and the app is extremely easy to navigate within Shopify.

Our only complaint is the inability to exclude products/services from EARNING points. We have some services were we make only 20% commission, yet our customers receive full rewards points. The only work around is to manually subtract points from customer accounts after they pay (not ideal). A work around given to me by the extremely helpful and friendly service rep, Andrea, was to specify collections that would be eligible to have rewards APPLIED. While helpful if we are concerned about how the rewards are used, we are more concerned about making sure we have the ability to control what can earn points in the first place. This is a very specific problem for a niche business like our (a quilt shop), but just an FYI!

We still plan to use Smile and will likely just have to increase reward thresholds to ensure we’re not just handing out rewards like crazy!

Hi, I have just downloaded the app for my Shopify store and was having trouble finding where to add social media links so I messaged for help. The rep was very helpful and explained where to find the links. She also disclosed about third-party validation. I sincerely appreciate the transparency & for letting me know this. Very impressed so far. Can’t wait to see how the app improves Business for me. Thank you Vicky. @littlegoddess-online.com
