You can create vouchers in TalkBox that can be redeemed by customers when they order through your QikServe platform. The voucher redemptions can be tracked with TalkBox voucher reporting so you can measure the success of each one.
Navigate to: Tools > Vouchers > Create new voucher
Step 1: Give your voucher a name & description
- Provide a descriptive name and description of your voucher (these will be displayed within TalkBox and when the voucher is scanned for redeeming)
Step 2: Configure voucher validity
Set the options:
- Never expires – the voucher can be redeemed for an unlimited time period
- Expires after – the voucher is valid for a limited number of days after it has been issued. voucher can be redeemed for a set number of days after it’s been issued
- Valid from – the voucher can be redeemed during a set date/time period
TIP: You can use the ‘Valid from’ option to drive demand during slow periods or create ‘happy hour’ vouchers.
Step 3: Add voucher messaging (optional)
With TalkBox, you can set up a series of automated messages that send based on voucher redemptions.
- Redemption Message – triggered if a voucher is redeemed
- Reminder Message – triggered a number of days before voucher is set to expire (if the voucher is not redeemed)
- Expiry Message – triggered when a voucher is expired and has not been redeemed
TIP: Setup your ‘Expiry message’ to send a few days before the voucher expires this will help to remind customers. Try sending your voucher expiry message via SMS to maximise redemptions
Step 4: Add user data
- Add user data key and value if configuring a voucher with your POS
- Note: User Data needs to always contain ‘offer-id’ in the ‘Key’ box and digits of your own choosing in the ‘Value’ box.
Step 5: Save your voucher
- Click ‘save voucher’ to create your voucher
