MeshLine
A practical example
Example: a coffee retailer designs a two-tier program where members earn one point per euro and top-tier members earn double, then models the redemption rate to check that expected liability from unredeemed points stays within margin targets.
What to evaluate before investing
- Ask how eligibility rules are defined: can the vendor exclude staff, wholesale accounts, or specific channels, and can rules change without rebuilding the program?
- Check whether the platform models reward liability, the outstanding value of unredeemed points, and supports expiry policies to keep it manageable.
- Verify how tier status is calculated and recalculated, including whether members can drop tiers and how disputes over missing points are handled.
Limitations and tradeoffs
Generous earning rates are easy to launch and hard to reverse; devaluing points later often damages trust more than a modest program ever earned.
