Burning Rules

Burning rules define how and when members can redeem the benefits they have accumulated. They let you set boundaries on redemption to protect program economics while keeping the experience fair for members.

The available configuration options depend on your program type.

Shared concepts (Cashback, Points, and Stamps)

The following fields appear in all three program types.

Minimum transaction amount

Sets a minimum purchase value required before a member can apply a redemption. A value of zero means no minimum is enforced.

Example: set to €5.00 to prevent redemptions on very small transactions.

Maximum cart percentage

Sets the maximum proportion of the total transaction that can be covered by a redemption. A value of zero means no maximum is enforced.

Example: set to 50% so that a member can never cover more than half of a purchase with accumulated benefits.

These two controls together let you ensure that redemptions are applied to meaningful purchases and that members always contribute something to each transaction.
