LOYALTY DEALS & BUDDY DEALS

    Loyalty deals is a long terms deals offered by merchant without expire date until they want to take it down. Merchant can create multiple pricing and set volume purchase offer for the deals. This concept making easy to merchant because they are not required to post same deals many time. While Buddy Deals is a short terms deals offered by merchant with limited offer period and expiry date. Buddy Deals is a traditional online shoping service where merchant have to post deals once on a time and have to repeat the same way on same deals in the future.
  2. What is multiple pricing?
    Multiple pricing allows merchant to set the purchase quantity price and accumulated purchase amount for maximum of 4 tier. The price for the next tier should be more less than before. Thus, we can encourage customer to take the deals until they will be on the next tier of offer and build their loyalty without they realized it.
  3. What are the meaning behind the concept of buy more save more?
    Since Loyalty Deals are using multiple pricing concept, people can save more money as they can buy the deals in bulk. The more they buy, the more discount they can earn on the next tier of offer. However, this offer depends on their accumulate purchase and period of time set by merchant. Beside that, merchant can also save up their money by using this multiple pricing rather than direct adevertising for individual deals. Frankly, this is how we help to build your brand awareness and customer loyalty.
