The “Check For Rewards” specific action

If you plan to set some periodic challenges for your customer, you may want them to get the maximum amount of points during a set period. And, after that period, give them the best possible reward they can get. The scheduler add-on will help you to do it.

When installing the scheduler add-on, it also adds a new option in the points and rewards systems. You will find that option in the Advanced Settings.

Checking this option will remove customer’s ability to manually redeem a reward for this system. Instead, only scheduler actions will unlock them (use the Check For Rewards action).
