Release Notes: Summer '18

As your partner, we know how important data security is and we will continue to make changes like this to keep your data safe and secure. 

Expanded Account Filters for Geofence Campaigns 

More robust filtering options are availabe for geofencing campaigns. You can now segment your guests using over 60 different filters such as when a reward is expiring or how many points they have on their account. 

Apple Passbook Rewards Enrollment 

With NFC loyalty, when an unenrolled guest taps to pay with Apple Pay, the system now recognizes when they are not a member and pushes a message to the guest's phone screen inviting the user to enroll in the program. If the guest selects, "yes", they will be taken through an enrollment flow that auto fills with their contact information that is stored in Apple Pay.

Online Order Accrual 

Online Orders can now have the guest orders completed when the order is given to the customer which allows for the timing trigger that you rely on from your in-store orders.  This will allow your experience surveys, and guest notifications to be delivered to the guest at the most relevant moment.  

Member Pricing

Convenient stores can now give their loyalty customers everyday low prices just for using their loyalty account.  Fountain drinks, coffees, or any other items in your store can have a standing discount that will help attract customers to your program.

Registrationg Date Viewable for Front Line Staff

Front line staff can now see the date of when a loyalty member they are serving registered for the program. 

Web Card Sales Features

We've made it easier for guests to order gift cards online. We implemented a one-click button to auto-populate the billing address fields from data entered in the shipping address fields, reducing checkout time. We've also made it possible to order multiple gift cards of different values, reducing the number of transactions a guest needs to complete.
