Raffle Campaign

Raffle Campaign

1. Overview  

Campaigns are fundamental to the Loyal-n-Save program, serving as the foundation for token allocation and redemption. The "Campaigns" module within the loyalty program offers the flexibility to design and execute a wide range of campaigns, each tailored to specific business goals, helping to maximize the overall benefits. These campaigns are strategically crafted to promote attractive deals or create token-earning opportunities, which in turn generate increased sales for targeted products. By leveraging campaigns effectively, businesses can not only engage customers more deeply but also encourage repeat purchasing behavior, enhancing both customer retention and revenue growth. Ultimately, campaigns are essential to fostering strong customer relationships and cultivating lasting loyalty within the Loyal-n-Save, driving long-term success for businesses.

The "Campaigns" module contains 4 different trigger types:


                                                                        Figure 1.0

  4. Raffle

2. Raffle Campaign

The Raffle trigger type is a campaign designed to incentivize customer participation by offering them the chance to earn digital raffle entries. These entries give customers the opportunity to win a prize or set of prizes. Customers earn digital raffle entries by performing specific actions or meeting certain criteria while the campaign is active.  
 
Under the Raffle campaign, there are 3 different types of reward types. 

 

                                                              Figure 1.1

  1. Raffle (Sale Dollars Based): The "Raffle - Sale Dollars Based" reward type is a mechanism where customers earn raffle entries based on the amount of money they spend. For every dollar spent during a specific promotional period, customers receive a certain number of raffle entries. For example, for every $10 spent, a customer will receive one raffle entry. 
  2. Raffle (Total Dollar Based): The "Raffle - Total Dollars Based" reward type is a mechanism where raffle entry is given to the customer when total dollars spent reaches the trigger amount goal during the campaign period. For example, earn a raffle entry when you spend $500 in July.
  3. Raffle (Item Based): Customers earn raffle entries by purchasing specific items that are on a predefined whitelist. Each time a customer purchases an item from the whitelist, they receive a raffle entry. The number of entries per item could vary based on the promotion's rules.

2.1 "Details" Tab

                                                                                    Figure 1.2
  1. Name: The campaign name acts as the main identifier, playing a key role in capturing customer attention. It will be prominently featured on both the website and mobile app, making it easy for customers to recognize and associate with the campaign. 
  2. Description: Explains the campaign rules to customers and will be visible on the website and mobile application. 
  3. Store Type: Select the store type where the purchase has been made.
    1. Store Only: Purchases only made within a store.
    2. Online Only: Purchases only made within the FTx Commerce site.
    3. Store & Online: Purchases made in both the store and online.
  4. Active: The Active setting in the Loyal-n-Save program gives you control over whether a campaign is running or not. This setting acts as a toggle to activate or deactivate the campaign. When marked as Active, the campaign becomes operational, allowing customers to participate and earn rewards based on their purchases. Once a campaign is set to Active, notifications will be sent to customers 30 minutes after activation, ensuring they are informed and can begin enjoying the campaign's benefits.
  5. Balance Type: The balance type is a token bucket where tokens are allocated based on earnings from the campaign.   
  6. Age Restricted Topics: Select age-restricted products; campaign alerts will only be going to age-verified customers. This option is used to ensure that certain campaigns are only accessible to customers who have been age verified. This is particularly important for products or promotions that are legally restricted to certain age groups, such as alcohol, tobacco, or adult content. By using the Age Restricted Topics feature, you can confidently promote age-sensitive products while adhering to legal requirements and maintaining responsible marketing practices.
  7. Tags: You can add or select tags from the drop-down list to identify and group each campaign. 

2.2 "Schedules" Tab   

                                                                   Figure 1.3
  1. Campaign Start Date: Click and select the date on which the campaign starts. 
  2. Campaign End Date: Click and select the date on which the campaign ends.   

Daily Schedules   

  1. Use Schedule: Toggle Yes/No. Use this option to run this campaign as planned. By toggling this option to "Yes,an additional field called Campaign Schedules appears as shown below: 

 

                                                                       Figure 1.4


Here you can select the days and times on which you want the campaign to be active or inactive.  

2.3 "Options" Tab

                                                                                    Figure 1.5
  1. Cash Multiplier: The Cash Multiplier is a factor used to adjust the number of tokens a customer earns when making payments with cash. This multiplier can increase or decrease the tokens based on the campaign settings. 
    1. For Open Ended campaigns, the values specified in the Cash Multiplier section can modify the tokens earned by the customer. The multiplier can be set to reward customers with more tokens for paying with cash. It can also be set to reduce the number of tokens earned as a penalty for using cash.
    2. For Trigger Points and Raffle Campaigns, the cash multiplier values affect the customer’s rewards. The values influence the internal trigger points tracking system, impacting how points are calculated and tracked within the system but not directly altering the rewards customers see. 
NotesNote: If this value is not set at the Campaign level, customers will not earn tokens for the given campaign.
  1. Non Cash Multiplier: The Non Cash Multiplier is a factor used to adjust the number of tokens a customer earns when making payments with non-cash methods, such as credit cards, debit cards, or checks.
    1. For open ended promotions, the values specified in the Non Cash Multiplier section can adjust the tokens earned by the customer based on their payment method. The multiplier can reward customers with more tokens for using non-cash payment methods. It can also reduce the number of tokens earned as a penalty for using non-cash payment methods.
    2. For trigger points and raffle campaigns, the non-cash multiplier values affect the customer’s rewards. The values are used to calculate and track trigger points internally without altering the visible tokens earned by the customer.
Note: This value is for credit cards, debit cards, checks, or any tenders besides cash. If this value is not set at the Campaign level, customers will not earn tokens for the given campaign.
  1. Require Registration: This is initially configured based on your default global settings, but it can be adjusted to suit the needs of each specific campaign. When Require Registration is enabled, customers must take an extra step to either add or activate the campaign in their account. This action might involve signing up through the Loyal-n-Save portal or app, ensuring they are aware and actively choosing to participate.   
    1. Drop-down options: Use GlobalRequire Registration, or No Registration Required  
  2. Early Registration Time: When Require Registration is enabled, you can choose a time limit within which the customer must add or activate this campaign to participate.
    1. Drop-down options: Use Global, No Preregistration, or 1 month through 9 months
       
                                                                                     Figure 1.6 
  1. Campaign Image:
     Add an image to capture customers' attention and enhance the visual appeal of the campaign. Ensure the image has dimensions of 400px in width and 240px in height for optimal display.  
    InfoFTx AdPro: Get the most out of your campaigns! FTx AdPro, our user-friendly design tool that makes creating stunning visuals.
  1. Single Use: The Single Use setting allows you to control how often customers can earn rewards from a specific campaign. This setting can be toggled between "Yes" and "No,providing flexibility in how you want to manage the distribution of campaign benefits.
  1. Yes: When toggled to "Yes," here you can limit the earnings for the campaign.
  2. No: When toggled to "No," there are no restrictions, and customers can earn rewards from the campaign multiple times without any limit.  
  3. Options for Limits:
    1. Overall: The customer can earn rewards from this campaign only once in total, regardless of the time frame.
    2. Per Day: The customer can earn rewards from this campaign only once per day.
    3. Per Week: The customer can earn rewards from this campaign only once per week.
    4. Per Month: The customer can earn rewards from this campaign only once per month.
    5. Per Year: The customer can earn rewards from this campaign only once per year.
    6. Per Sale: The customer can earn rewards from this campaign only once per transaction or sale.

  1. Stackable: Toggle "Yes"/"No"
    1. Yes: If the Stackable toggle is set to "Yes," this means multiple campaigns can be applied to the same product during a single transaction. The customer can benefit from more than one campaign, increasing their potential rewards.
    2. No: If the toggle is set to "No,only one campaign will be applied based on a set priority. The system will choose the campaign with the highest priority (lowest number) and apply it, ignoring other campaigns.
  2. Priority: The priority defines the order in which the system applies campaigns when more than one campaign exists for the same product, and the stackable option is set to "No." The campaign with the highest priority (i.e., the lowest number, like 1) will be applied first.
NotesNote: By default, the Stackable toggle will be set to "Yes," and the Priority field will be hidden.
Priority Campaign Example: 

Imagine you have two campaigns targeting the same item:
  1. Campaign A: Rewards 2% on purchases, with a priority of 1.
  2. Campaign B: Rewards 1% on purchases, with a priority of 2.
  3. Both campaigns have the Stackable flag set to NO (meaning only one campaign can apply).
How It Works:
  1. Priority Determines Which Campaign Applies
    1. Since Campaign A (2%) has a higher priority (priority 1), it will be applied first.
    2. Campaign B (1%) has a lower priority (priority 2) and will only apply if Campaign A does not qualify.
  2. What If Campaign A Cannot Apply?
    1. If Campaign A (priority 1) is disqualified (e.g., due to purchase conditions not being met), then Campaign B (priority 2) will attempt to apply instead.
  3. Non-Stackable Rule
    1. Since both campaigns are set as non-stackable, once a campaign is applied, no other campaign can apply to the same item.
    2. This ensures only one reward is given per purchase.
What if Stackable is set to "Yes"?
  1. If a campaign has the Stackable flag set to "Yes," it will apply in addition to other active campaigns.
  2. For example, if both campaigns were stackable, the customer would receive both the 2% and 1% rewards on the same item.

                                                                                             Figure 1.7
NotesNote: When the Stackable option is toggled to "No," then set the Dollar Limit Type to Exclude If Under Min.
  1. Use Dollar Limit: The Use Dollar Limit setting allows you to control the number of rewards (tokens) a customer can earn based on defined dollar value and defined dollar limit type. This setting can be toggled between "Yes" and "No," providing flexibility in managing the campaign rewards.
    1. Toggle Yes / No:
      1. Yes: When toggled to "Yes," you activate the feature that sets a cap on the number of tokens a customer can earn based on the dollar value of their purchases.
      2. No: When toggled to "No," there are no restrictions based on spending, and customers can earn tokens without any dollar-based limits.
 
                                    Figure 1.8
  1. Dollar Limit Type:                                          
    1. Stop at Max Cap: Prevent the customer from accumulating tokens once they have reached the specified use dollar limit value for a campaign.
    2. Exclude If Under Min: Customers will not earn tokens if their spending amount is below the specified use dollar limit value for a campaign.
    3. Exclude If Over Max: Customers will not earn tokens if their spending amount exceeds the specified use dollar limit value for a campaign.
  1. Minimum match filter quantity: Defines the minimum item quantity required for campaign eligibility. This setting establishes the lowest number of items a customer must purchase to qualify for participation in the campaign.   
  2. Allow Cash Tender: Enabling cash tender ensures that customers who prefer to pay with cash are included in the loyalty program and can accumulate rewards like other customers.
    1. Toggle Yes / No: 
      1. Yes: When toggled to "Yes," this setting allows customers who pay with cash to earn reward tokens on their purchases.
      2. No: When toggled to "No," customers who pay with cash will not earn reward tokens on their purchases.
  3. Allow Non-Cash Tender: Enabling non-cash tender ensures that customers who prefer to pay with credit cards, debit cards, checks, or other non-cash methods are included in the loyalty program and can accumulate rewards.
    1. Toggle Yes / No:
      1. Yes: When toggled to "Yes," this setting allows customers who pay with non-cash methods (such as credit cards, debit cards, and checks) to earn reward tokens on their purchases.
      2. No: When toggled to "No," customers who use non-cash payment methods will not earn reward tokens on their purchases.

3. Manage Campaign Filters  

Campaign filters are used to determine which products are valid in the campaign to trigger reward tokens. Use any combination of blacklists and whitelists as needed. However, a specific type can only have one blacklist or whitelist, and they cannot be combined in the same type.
  1. Reward Tokens Earned can either go to the trigger balances of the Trigger Points, campaigns, or they can be directly awarded into the customer's balance.
  2. When blacklist(s) are engaged, the preferred token value will need to be designated for All Other Items that will receive the Static Token reward.
  1. Whitelists – Items you want to include.  
  2. Blacklists – Items you want to exclude. 
By default, All Items is used when no other lists are set up. It is recommended that at least one blacklist or whitelist be defined on each campaign. The blacklist and whitelist cannot be used together for the same type. However, you can have a Department Whitelist and Item Blacklist working together.  

 
 
                                                               Figure 2.8


A combination of blacklists and whitelists is available from the Add Filter
drop-down list:  
  1. All items   
  2. Item Whitelist or Item Blacklist   
  3. Department Whitelist or Department Blacklist   
  4. Category Whitelist or Category Blacklist   
  5. Manufacturer Whitelist or Manufacturer Blacklist   
  6. Brand Whitelist or Brand blacklist   
  7. Tag Whitelist or Tag Blacklist

  4. Select item(s) from the Results list.  
  5. Click on the Right Arrow to move the items to the selected list.  
  6. Click on "Apply."  
NotesNote: The option to configure the Manage Campaign Filters will be hidden/disabled for Auto Trigger campaign type. 

4. Campaign Requirements

With these requirement types, you can fine-tune how different marketing campaigns interact with each other through specific requirement types. This allows for a strategic approach to running multiple campaigns simultaneously, ensuring they complement rather than conflict with one another. In essence, these requirement types provide you with the flexibility to design a cohesive and strategic marketing plan within the Loyal-n-Save program, enhancing customer experience and maximizing campaign effectiveness.  


                                                                   Figure 3.0 
Campaign Requirement Type   
  1. None: This setting indicates that the campaign has no specific prerequisites or conditions for a customer to participate. Any customer can join and benefit from the campaign regardless of their engagement or status with other campaigns. This is the most straightforward type of campaign with no dependencies or restrictions.   
  2. Require: When this rule is activated, the campaign will only be accessible to customers who have either completed or earned rewards from one of the campaigns listed in the Manage Campaigns section. For instance, if the campaign listed below is Open Ended and the customer has accumulated any balance, or if the campaign listed below is a Trigger Points campaign and the customer has received any rewards from it, then the customer will become eligible to participate in this new campaign. This ensures that only those customers who have engaged with certain previous campaigns can join this one, creating a tiered or progressive campaign structure. 
                                                      Figure 3.1
  1. Exclude: When this rule is activated, the current campaign will be prevented from running if any of the campaigns listed under Manage Campaigns have been initiated or triggered. Specifically, if a campaign listed below is Open Ended and has accrued any balance, this will block the current campaign from being processed. If a campaign listed below is a Trigger Points campaign (previously referred to as "Tokens Earned") and it has issued any rewards, this will also prevent the current campaign from running.
                                                      Figure 3.2
