Receipts

Cheetah Digital Loyalty Receipts lets a brand capture online and in-store purchase receipts. Members can accrue points and receive prizes for submitting receipts. Cheetah Digital Loyalty Receipts can use a variety of member attributes–Member Id, Email, Phone number, Member Card Number, or Member Integration Id–to identify the member for an incoming receipt.

Cheetah Digital Loyalty Receipts has several methods to collect receipts:

• Direct. Use Cheetah Digital Loyalty’s APIs to import receipts from your existing point-of-sale (POS) or ecommerce system.
• Claiming a Receipt. Members can claim an existing receipt by entering the receipt number and the purchase amount on the receipt.
• Receipt Scanning. Members can submit images of their purchase receipts via email, mobile app, or web upload. Cheetah Digital Loyalty’s Receipt Scanning module digitizes the receipt image to identify the member and the receipt items.
• Manual. Use the Cheetah Digital Loyalty Marketing Console to manually upload receipts in the Cheetah Digital Loyalty Marketing Console.

You can use the pre-built reports and dashboards to analyze your receipts, and also use the receipt history to target content, such as Offers and Rewards, to members.

You can then use the ‘Approve’ and ‘Reject’ buttons to manually approve and reject the receipt.
