How customers earn points for social media actions
IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to social media platform policies (e.g., Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, TikTok), third-party apps like BON cannot verify if actions like following or sharing were completed. Points for social media actions are rewarded immediately when customers click the action button on the widget or loyalty page.
Once points are earned, the social media action will be removed from the widget/loyalty page permanently, ensuring it can only be completed once to prevent misuse.
Introduction

This will help to incentivize customers to engage with their brand on these platforms, increase brand awareness, and drive customer retention. In this article, we will show you how customers can earn points for different social media actions.
