🎁 Loyalty Scheme Overview

The Loyalty Scheme allows participants to earn points from various interactions with your events. Points can be redeemed for money off race entries

Written by Angus Williams

Points can be earned from:

  • Race entries

❗ Tip: Check for overlapping incentives (early bird, referral schemes, multi-buy) to avoid double discounts.


🏆 Types of Rewards

  • Race Credit / Gift Card

Example:

  • 1 point per £1 spent

  • 100 points = £1 gift card → 1% discount

  • Multiples vary depending on points/reward setup
