Social Snowball allows you to send store credit payouts to your affiliates with gift cards generated right in your Shopify account.
To set up store credit rewards, go to the Programs tab in your Social Snowball dashboard and click on the program for which you wish to use store credit rewards.
From within the program builder page, go to the Commissions section and select Store Credit. Then, set the value for either a fixed amount of store credit or a percentage of the referred sale.
Once done, click Save & Exit. Now, a gift card payout will be generated for your affiliates in this program when they make a referral.
If Auto-approve gift cards is enabled, the gift card will be sent instantly to the affiliate when a referral is made and passes all fraud checks. You'll be able to view paid payouts in the Payouts tab of your interface.
If Auto-approve gift cards is disabled, you can approve and send gift card payouts in the Payouts tab.
When a gift card payout is auto-approved or manually sent, the affiliate receives an email with the gift card that looks like this:
Affiliates can also always access their gift cards in the payouts tab of their affiliate interface by clicking the View gift card button for each payout.
When clicked, a pop-up displaying the gift card info will appear:
