Set up your first earning rule

Configure how members earn points on every order - in about five minutes.

4 min read

Why this matters

The earn rate is the single number that decides what your programme costs and what it is worth to a member. Set it too low and points feel pointless; set it too high and you are discounting every order. This is also where minimum order value and a maximum earning cap live, so it is worth getting right before anyone joins.

What you'll need

  • A live Shopify or WooCommerce connection
  • A tier already created (or use the default)
  • 5 minutes

Steps

1

Open Points & Rewards settings

Go to the Points & Rewards section in your Mylo admin and select the tier you want to configure.

2

Set the earn rate

Choose how many points a member earns per unit of spend for this tier.

3

Add optional limits

Set a minimum order to qualify, and an optional maximum spend that earns, so the rule fits your margins.

4

Override specific products

If a product or variant should earn a different rate, set it from Product-Level Earning Rules - the standard rate still applies everywhere else.

5

Save and watch it apply

The rule takes effect immediately. Balances update within seconds of the next order.

Tip

Start with one simple rate across all tiers, then layer in overrides once you see how members respond.
