How does points expiry work? (Essential Loyalty app)
Points expiry removes points that a customer has not used within a period you choose. It is off by default.
Turn it on
- Go to Essential Loyalty → Program → Points.
- In the Points expiry setting, choose 6, 12, 18, or 24 months, or Never to turn it off.
Good to know
- Expiry is available on the Essential plan and higher. If you downgrade, expiry is turned off.
- Points expire oldest first.
- When you first turn expiry on, existing balances are not expired straight away. They start counting from the day you turn it on.
- Expiry runs once a day.
- There is no automatic email that warns customers their points are about to expire. The "Reward expiry warning" emails are for reward codes, not for points balances.
