How it works
- The way to earn appears in the Ways to earn list of your loyalty widgets (for example the Floating Rewards launcher, rewards landing page and customer account page) with a Share button.
- A logged-in customer clicks Share. A new X post opens with your Share URL and Share Message filled in.
- Yuko credits the points as soon as the customer clicks. Social networks don’t let apps confirm the action, so earning is based on the click.
- The way to earn then shows as completed for that customer.
Decision guidance
- Write a message customers would actually post. Short and specific beats salesy.
- Keep the reward modest. It’s a quick one-time action.
Limitations
- Earning is based on the click; X doesn’t let apps confirm that the post was published.
- One reward per customer.
- Customers must be logged in to earn.
- You can have one Twitter Share way to earn.
Examples
- 15 points for sharing a launch page, with the message Just found my new favourite sneakers.
