To create a loyalty program on Shopify you decide three things: what shoppers earn, how they earn it, and who pays for it. Then you give them a place to do it, usually a rewards page. This guide covers the decisions, then walks through adding a game-powered rewards page with AppsPrize. The app is in early access, so join the list and we will email you when it is live.
Decide first: what, how, and who pays
- What do shoppers earn? Points that become a discount, store credit, free shipping or early access.
- How do they earn it? By purchasing, by visiting, or by taking part in an activity. Clear milestones work better than chance.
- Who pays? You, or a partner. In an advertiser-funded program, game studios pay for the points.
Before you start
You need:
- A Shopify store.
- Ten minutes.
- A rough idea of where you want the page to appear: a storefront section on a page of your choice, or an optional floating launcher.
There is nothing to code, and there is no monthly fee.
Step 1: Install the app
When the listing is live, find AppsPrize in the Shopify App Store and add it to your store. The install takes a few clicks.
Step 2: Pick your games and make it yours
- Choose which offers appear. You decide which games your shoppers see.
- Match your brand. Set your colors, logo and messaging so the page feels like part of your store.
- Set what points are worth. Points from each milestone become discounts in your store.
Step 3: Add the rewards page and go live
Add the rewards section to a storefront page, or switch on the floating launcher. Our team can help with setup if you want it.
What your shoppers see
- They open your rewards page and pick a game, with the points shown up front.
- They play on their phone. On desktop, a quick QR scan opens the same game on mobile.
- They reach milestones and earn points.
- They spend the points on a discount in your store.
How your store earns
Your store earns when shoppers install partner games through your rewards page. You can follow activity and earnings in your AppsPrize dashboard.
Common questions
Do I need to replace my current loyalty program? No. It works alongside what you already run.
Who pays for the rewards? Game partners do, so you do not carry a discount budget for them.
What about shopper data? AppsPrize does not share your shoppers' email addresses or purchase data with game partners.
Is it free? Yes, it is free to install with no monthly fees.
