Award points for placing an order

Configure the Place an order way to earn: points per dollar, earning conditions, product eligibility, active dates, and membership tier eligibility.

Place an order awards points for every dollar customers spend. Find it in Loyalty Program → Points → Ways to earn.

The Place an order settings. The Summary panel restates your configuration in plain language.

Points value

Set points for every 1 spent in your store currency. The currency comes from your store settings.

Set a Display name and Description for storefront loyalty widgets.

Earning conditions

Points are calculated after discounts. Choose whether points apply to:

• Discounted items via Roadmap or Shopify discounts.

• Orders containing loyalty point redemptions, where the customer redeemed a reward.

• Shipping fees.

These conditions apply to every line on the order, including Shopify gift cards. A separate setting controls whether the purchaser or the redeemer earns on a gift card, but it does not override the conditions here. See Who earns points on Shopify gift cards.

Product eligibility

Choose one option:

• All products earn points. This is the default.

• All products earn points except selected collections.

• Only selected products earn points from a collection.

Collection exclusions only catch products in that collection. Exclude checkout discount-code items through the discounted-items condition.

Active Dates

Set a Start date and time. Select Set end date for time-boxed offers.

Membership tier eligibility

Leave this empty for all customers. Select tiers to restrict the rule to those members.

You can create several Place an order earners. When more than one applies, customers receive the most generous one.
