How to Enable Points Redemption at Checkout

Let customers see and redeem available points and rewards directly at checkout in one click, with app block setup, mobile placement tips, and translation options.

Introduction

The Redeem at Checkout extension lets logged-in customers view their points balance, see the rewards they qualify for, and apply a reward directly during checkout.

This provides a convenient redemption experience while making your loyalty program more visible at the point of purchase.

Availability

To use Redeem at Checkout, your store must meet both requirements:

  • You must subscribe to the CWILL Loyalty Plus plan.

  • Your store must be on Shopify Plus.

Shopify limits UI extensions on the information, shipping, and payment steps of checkout to Shopify Plus stores. If either requirement is not met, the Redeem at Checkout block might not appear in the checkout editor.

Tip for Mobile Optimization: For the best experience, it's recommended to place the extension on the left side of checkout. It ensures better visibility on all screens, especially mobile.


How customers redeem a reward?
