## 🛠️ Configuring Cashback: Questions to Help You Set Up the Right Rule

Setting up a cashback rule in Dollarback is simple—but asking yourself the right questions ensures you align rewards with your store goals. Use the checklist below to guide your configuration process.

***

### 🎯 Define Your Cashback Goal

Before you configure the rule, ask yourself:

* **What is the purpose of this cashback offer?**
  * To incentivize first-time purchases?
  * To reward repeat customers?
  * To boost sales of a specific product or collection?

***

### 💰 Set the Cashback Value

* **What type of cashback do you want to offer?**
  * [*Percentage-based*](/dollarback-store-credit/get-started/set-percentage-casback.md) (e.g. 10% of the order value)?
  * [*Fixed amount*](/dollarback-store-credit/get-started/set-fixed-amount-cashback.md) (e.g. ₹100 cashback)?
  * [Order goal](/dollarback-store-credit/get-started/configure-order-goals.md) (e.g. Order above $100 to get $5 back as credit)
* **What should the cashback amount be?**
  * Specify this in the **Cashback Percentage** or **Cashback Amount** field.
* **Should the cashback expire?**
  * Enter the number of days after which the reward becomes invalid.
  * Enter “0” if it should never expire.

### 🛍️ Choose Where the Cashback Applies

* **Should the cashback apply to:**
  * All products?
  * Specific collections?
  * Specific individual products?
* Use the **"Applies To"** dropdown and the **Collections** selector to define the scope.

***

### 👥 Target the Right Customers

* **Do you want to restrict this cashback to a specific group of customers?**
  * Add customer tags (e.g., “VIP”, “First-time”) in the **Customer Tags** field.
* **Should this cashback be given only for online store purchases?**
  * Enable the checkbox: “Allow only orders created from Online store sales channel”.

***

### &#x20;🔁 Create Multiple Rules (Optional)

* **Do you need separate cashback settings for different segments or products?**
  * Use the **“Add Configuration”** button to create additional rules with different conditions.

***

### ✅ Activate the Configuration

* **Ready to go live?**
  * Toggle the **Enable/Disable** switch to activate or pause this configuration.

***

### 🔎 Tip

Use the **Settings Summary** panel on the right to quickly review per configuration.
