Creating Regular Rewards

Regular rewards are the foundation of your community economy. They provide a clear, guaranteed return on investment for your users’ time and effort.
Time to Complete: 5 minutes Setup: Have your Inventory ready (e.g., a list of discount codes or a PDF link).

The Creation Workflow

Navigate to Engagement > Rewards > Create New and select Regular Reward.
1

Basic Identity

  • Reward Name: Be descriptive (e.g., “$10 Amazon Gift Card”).
  • Image: Use a clear 1440x1080px image of the item.
  • Description: Tell them exactly what they’re getting and how to use it.
2

Setting the Price

  • Point Cost: How many points does a user need to spend?
  • XP Requirement: (Optional) Require a certain “Level” before they can even buy this item. This protects premium rewards for your most loyal members.
3

Inventory & Supply

How many do you have?
  • Unlimited: Best for digital downloads or generic “Access” perks.
  • Limited: Enter the total number (e.g., 100). Once they’re gone, the reward shows as “Sold Out.”
4

Reward Delivery

How does the user get the reward?
  • Text/Code: Nudj will display a unique code (like a Shopify discount) to the user instantly.
  • URL/Download: Nudj provides a button to download a file or visit a hidden link.
  • Manual: Nudj sends you an email, and you handle fulfillment (best for physical merch).

Managing Your Inventory (Codes)

If you are giving away unique codes (like gift cards or one-time discounts), you need to upload them to the Codes tab.
  1. In the Reward Editor, go to the Codes & Assets tab.
  2. Bulk Upload: Copy and paste a list of codes (one per line) or upload a CSV.
  3. Alerts: Nudj will notify you when your inventory is low (e.g., only 5 codes left).
Technical Note: Developers may see these items referred to as Assets in the API.
Pro Move: If you use our Shopify Integration, Nudj can generate these codes automatically so you never have to manage an inventory list.

The Redemption Experience

What the user sees when they click “Redeem”:
  1. Confirmation: “Are you sure you want to spend 500 points on this?”
  2. Success: Confetti!
  3. Delivery: Their unique code appears instantly, and they receive a confirmation email.
  4. Wallet: The reward is saved in their “My Rewards” section so they can find the code again later.

Reward Best Practices

  • The “Low-Hanging Fruit”: Always have a reward that costs very few points (e.g., a “Digital Wallpaper”). This gets users into the habit of visiting the store early.
  • Clear Disclaimers: If a discount code only works in the US, or expires in 30 days, make that the very first line of your description.
  • Visual Proof: If it’s physical merch, show a photo of a real person wearing/using it.
