Find what is wrong
The camera will not read it
- Ask the guest to turn up their screen brightness.
- Hold the code in the centre of the frame.
- Still not reading? For a reward bought with points, redeem it from the guest's profile, as below.
It says the guest is not part of this loyalty scheme
You are scanning in a different scheme from the card. In Loyalty, choose the guest's scheme, then click Scan again. In Scanner, check the Loyalty scheme chosen.
It says Reward not valid for this venue
Do not redeem it from the profile: that spends the guest's points on a new reward and leaves the emailed one unused. Email support instead.
Another message
See scan a loyalty card or reward for what each one means. In the Scan guest QR window, the box may show a short code, such as already_redeemed. The pop-up shows it in words.
Redeem from the profile
Use this for rewards bought with points only. A reward code the guest was emailed cannot be redeemed here.
- Go to Loyalty › Enrolled Guests, then choose your scheme.
- Search for the guest and click their name.
- Click the reward. Greyed-out rewards are ones they cannot afford.
- Click Redeem for.
Check it worked
You see Rewards redeemed successfully. Close and reopen the guest, and the reward shows under History.
If that does not fix it
Email support at agent@stampede.ai with:
- The scheme name, venue, and the guest's name and email.
- A screenshot of the message.
Good to know
- No venue configured for this scheme on the profile means no venue is picked under Venues in Edit scheme. Pick one, then try again.
- Only Admin, Moderator, General Manager, Bookings Manager and Marketing can see Loyalty.
