How to Set Up Ways to Redeem in Kefi Loyalty

Ways to Redeem define how customers can use the points they earn in your loyalty program. Well‑designed rewards make points feel valuable, motivate customers to keep earning, and directly influence repeat purchases and conversion rates.

This guide walks you through exactly how to set up Ways to Redeem in Kefi Loyalty—from navigating your Shopify admin to configuring each reward type.


Why Ways to Redeem Matter for Shopify Stores

Configuring the right redemption options helps you:

  • Turn points into real value customers can immediately understand

  • Increase repeat purchases by giving customers a reason to return

  • Control discount costs with clear point-to-value rules

  • Improve conversion rates at checkout

  • Create flexibility with multiple reward types (discounts, shipping, products)

A strong redemption setup ensures customers don’t just earn points—but actually use them.

Step 1: Open the Points Program

  1. Go to your Shopify Admin

  2. Navigate to Apps → Kefi: Loyalty Program Rewards

  3. Click Points Program from the sidebar

You’ll see two main sections:

  • Ways to Earn

  • Ways to Redeem

Step 2: Go to Ways to Redeem

  1. Under Ways to Redeem, click Manage

This opens the Ways to Redeem page, where all redemption rewards are listed.

Here you can:

  • View active and inactive rewards

  • See how many points each reward costs

  • Edit, activate, or disable rewards

  • Add new reward types

Step 3: Add a New Redemption Reward

  1. Click Add New in the top‑right corner

  2. Choose the reward type you want to create:

  • Amount Off – Fixed or flexible cash discount

  • Percentage Off – Percentage‑based discount

  • Free Shipping – Remove shipping cost

  • Free Product – Redeem points for a specific product

Each reward type opens a dedicated edit screen with its own configuration options.

Only Active rewards are visible to customers in the loyalty widget.

Best Practices for Ways to Redeem

  • Offer 1–2 simple rewards at launch

  • Keep point values easy to understand

  • Avoid too many active rewards at once

  • Review redemption usage regularly

Once configured, customers can redeem their points directly from the rewards launcher on your storefront.

A well‑structured Ways to Redeem setup ensures your loyalty program drives real business impact—not just point accumulation.
