### What Are Customer Tiers?

Customer tiers allow you to group customers based on specific criteria such as:

* Total money spent
* Number of orders placed
* Cashback earned or redeemed
* Customer tags

For example, you can create tiers like:

* **Bronze**
* **Silver**
* **Gold**

Each tier represents a level of customer engagement and can unlock different rewards.

{% hint style="info" %}
Tiers are only available on the Advanced plan
{% endhint %}

### Evaluation Windows

Customer tier eligibility is calculated based on a selected **evaluation window**:

* **All Time** – Based on the customer’s entire history
* **Current Month** – Resets every month
* **Current Year** – Resets annually
* **Custom Recurring** – Define custom cycles (e.g., every 6 months)

Choose the evaluation window depending on how frequently you want tier progress to reset.

### Setting Up Customer Tiers

1. Go to the **Customer Tiers** section in the app
2. Create your tiers (e.g., Bronze, Silver, Gold)
3. Define conditions for each tier

#### Example Configuration:

* **Gold** → At least 10 orders
* **Silver** → At least 5 orders
* **Bronze** → At least 1 order

You can combine multiple conditions. All enabled conditions must be satisfied for a customer to qualify.

***

### Available Conditions

You can build tier rules using:

* **Money Spent** (supports multi-currency)
* **Orders Placed**
* **Cashback Earned** (supports multi-currency)
* **Cashback Redeemed** (supports multi-currency)
* **Customer Tags**

> Note: All enabled coditions have to be met for the user to be considered a part of the tier

### Key Metric (Optional)

You can mark a condition as a **Key Metric**.

* This will be displayed to customers in the UI
* Helps customers understand what they need to do to reach the next tier

***

### Displaying Tiers in the Store

To show tiers to customers:

1. Enable the **Cashback Widget** in the theme editor
2. Save and publish changes

Customers will see:

* Their current tier
* Progress toward the next tier
* Requirements to unlock higher tiers

***

### Linking Rewards to Tiers

After creating tiers, you can assign rewards:

1. Create cashback or reward configurations
   * Example:
     * Gold → 5% cashback
     * Silver → 3% cashback
     * Bronze → 1% cashback
2. Go to the **Mapping Page**
3. Assign each reward to its corresponding tier
4. Save changes

Customers will then see:

* Tier-specific reward rates
* Benefits for each level

***

### Syncing Tiers

* You must **sync tiers after saving**
* This ensures all customers are assigned the correct tier

***

### Using the App Without Tiers

If tiers are disabled:

* You can still target customers using:
  * **Include Customer Tags**
  * **Exclude Customer Tags**

This allows manual segmentation without tier logic.

{% hint style="info" %}
When tiers are enabled, customer tags based filtering logic setup in configs will be ignored and only configurations mapped to tiers are counted when processing each order.
{% endhint %}

***

### How Tier Updates Work

Customer tiers are automatically updated when:

* An order is placed **and marked as fulfilled**
* Cashback is earned or redeemed
* A referral is completed
* Customer tags are updated

> ⚠️ Only **fulfilled orders** are counted toward tier calculations.

***

### Key Notes

* Tier progress updates in real-time based on qualifying actions
* Rewards and requirements are clearly shown to customers
* Multi-currency stores are fully supported
* Tier system works alongside referrals and cashback
