Lifecycle of a Loyalty Card • The initial card status of a loyalty card is Inactive. • After the first Accumulate transaction, the card status is Active. Sign-up bonus points are added during this transaction, if defined in the program. • Points are added with each Accumulate transaction. • You can add or update cardholder information at any time using Reporting. cardholder information bonus points, if specified in your Program Definition, are added to the card after you enter and save the cardholder information. • Each time the reward threshold is reached (as defined in the program), the specified reward amount is added to the card's reward balance. The reward balance may be used to purchase or redeem goods/services. • If the cardholder doesn't want the card anymore (or if the merchant has a policy of collecting depleted cards), the card may be deactivated and reissued to a new cardholder. Once a deactivated card is reissued, the status changes to Active and a new history is started. • If a card is damaged, lost or stolen, the balance may be transferred to a different card and the old card can be cancelled. Once a card is cancelled, it may not be used again.
