LL Loyalty Program & Rewards

Show more

App works as advertised but I have a handful of gripes which make my review 3 stars. --- 1. Merging customer accounts in Shopify will not update the customer's points total in the app. That means you manually have to keep track of both account's points totals then manually adjust their balance after the accounts are merged. That's a little annoying. --- 2. If a customer places a large order and then their order gets edited to remove some items, their points balance will not be adjusted to reflect this change in order total value. Which means if you reward based on order value (like I'm sure most of us do) you will have to manually adjust your customer's points again every time you edit an order. And these manual adjustments WILL be visible to the customer which doesn't look good on your store's part. --- 3. On the app home page they have a 'sales generated by app' widget. As far as I can tell this is just the total amount of sales your store have had since the app was installed. (Maybe its every order which gets rewards, but since every order gets rewarded in our program by default its just a useless metric). There is no way to hide this or show/hide it based on Shopify Staff permissions. This means that any staff member in your organization who has access to the app will be able to see your store's lifetime sales figure since the app was installed (as will the Loloyal app developers). And this figure never seems to reset by month, week, etc... I promise that helping customers which their point's and rewards totals is something that even the lowest level permission staff member in your organization will have to do at some point so just be aware of this. --- Other notes, customer support is timely for basic questions. Widget customization seems to be better than most other rewards apps we have tried. The admin loads 99% of the time on first try. You can import / export customer points balances (importing was a little tricky for us but the support was able to help us get it sorted ). Show more

I've had nothing but amazing customer service and support from this app from start to finish. They helped me customize a referral page for my branding and helped me add things that weren't part of my theme settings. Show more

Customer service is fast and kind! Will need to explore the app further, but thus far really like it. It is simple, easy to customize, exactly what I need :). Show more

I decided to try Loloyalty because their pricing seemed reasonable for a store just starting its loyalty program. The Starter level is sufficient and does almost everything I need; I've been frustrated before by apps that have a free or low-priced option only to find that the money-saving tier is crippled to the point of not being usable, but that's not the case here. The app and its widget are highly customizable and I got them to reflect my site's style. The widget can be opened with a button or by using a URL. I have complete control over how many points are issued for each activity, whether it's transactional or social, again without any limits because I'm only on the Starter plan. Customer service has been available and friendly, and the developers seem very interested in customer input. The weak points are the notifications and the referrals portion of the program. I understand they're working toward letting us customize the emails, which is good because it's needed. I've opted to turn their emails off altogether. It needs better integration with Shopify's email module and Flow so we can plan our own communications rather than depend on theirs. I do like that the referral program lets me decide exactly what each party receives: I give the referring member points while the prospective customer gets a percentage off coupon, but you could just as easily change either to free shipping or a free gift. That said, the communications are terrible. If the member wants to send an email to a friend, it is so badly formatted as to be almost indecipherable. The landing page has zero branding and is so poorly translated that I am truly concerned that prospective customers will think it's a phishing attempt. Neither the referral link nor the discount code generated for the customer is exportable, so I can't create my own email campaign, and because the discount code is only available on the landing page, I can't opt to circumvent that. They mentioned that the referral link can be sent to Klaviyo, but what about those of us who don't use Klaviyo (and, for that matter, why only Klaviyo), plus that still requires us to use the terrible landing page. So, all of that is why I deducted a star. Even though I have complaints and think there are serious issues that need to be resolved, I am mostly happy with and am still using the app. Show more
