Blocked points
The Points Locking feature of Omniwallet allows to protect the loyalty program against returns, fraud, or misuse of incentives.
Through this system, the brand can define a locking period during which the points earned in a transaction are assigned to the customer, but cannot be used until a specified number of days has passed.
This locking period usually coincides with the legal or commercial return period of the products, ensuring that the benefits associated with a purchase are only consolidated when the transaction is final.
How it works
-
The customer makes a purchase and earns points.
-
The points appear in their account, but remain locked for X days.
-
During that period, the points cannot be redeemed or used.
-
If the customer returns the product, the locked points are automatically removed.
-
If there is no return and the period ends, the points are unlocked and become available for normal use.
Simple and flexible setup
-
Definition of a locking period in days (for example, 14, 30, or 60 days).
-
Activation or deactivation of the lock according to the brand's policy.
-
Automatic application to all transactions without manual intervention.
Protection of the loyalty system
Thanks to the points locking, the brand can:
-
Prevent a customer from using points earned from a purchase that they later return.
-
Protect the economic balance of the program.
-
Align the incentive system with the actual operations of the business.
-
Maintain a transparent and fair experience for all customers.
The result is a loyalty system that is secure, consistent, and well-controlled, allowing to incentivize purchases from the very first moment without taking unnecessary risks in case of returns.
