Referrals go through prior statuses and earn any associated rewards. For example, if a referral moves from Pending to Approved, the referral will trigger any Qualified Status rewards.
Tiers Explained
See Common Reward Structures for more details on setting up different rewards (including tiered and milestone rewards).
Number of Referrals Tier - trigger the reward based on the # of referrals earned (see example structure)
Referral Sales Amount Tier - triggers the reward based on the referral amount value (see example structure)
Reward Delivery
Determine when you want rewards to be issued: Review & Issue or Issue Instantly.
Review & Issue
All triggered rewards are listed as Pending Rewards where they can be reviewed and then issued. You can also find the list of pending rewards on the Reward List.
Add Issue Delay (Optional): the reward is only eligible to be issued after the set number of days has passed.
We recommend selecting Review & Issue to make sure your reward rules are set correctly and to help prevent any fraudulent rewards.
Issue Instantly
All triggered rewards are issued as soon as they are earned. You can see these rewards on the Reward List (Issued).
This option is best after your program has been running and you're confident that your Reward Rules work as expected. It can also be helpful if you're dealing with large volumes of smaller (or low risk) rewards
Setup Payouts
Payouts are the methods for distributing and fulfilling the reward (based on the reward type selected). See Payouts Explained for more details.
