Drive Customer Retention With Post Checkout Coupons
Learn how to increase customer retention, improve customer satisfaction, and drive repeat sales by using smart post-checkout coupon tactics with Gleam.
Acquiring a new customer is often more expensive than keeping an existing one, which is why strong customer retention strategies are essential for long-term growth. The key is to consistently deliver value and exceed customer expectations — not just at the point of sale, but well beyond it.

One of the most effective ways to increase customer retention is by offering discount codes immediately after checkout. These incentives are a great way to thank loyal customers, motivate repeat purchases, and build stronger ties with your customer base over a longer period of time.
Let’s take a look at how to deliver these offers using Gleam — and turn every new sale into a retained customer who keeps coming back for your products or services.
Post-checkout popups are a simple but powerful way to encourage customers to return. By showing a targeted discount offer right after purchase, you can improve customer experience (CX) while collecting valuable leads.
With Gleam Capture, you can instantly trigger a coupon popup as soon as a customer completes a successful purchase.
Use the Current URL rule to trigger your popup only when users reach your confirmation or thank-you page:
You can also gate coupons behind email signups to build your list while delivering offers. This tactic not only increases customer loyalty, but also helps boost customer satisfaction by keeping your existing customers informed about future deals.

Rewards campaigns are a great way to deliver post-checkout coupons while encouraging actions that help strengthen your customer base.
With Gleam Rewards, you can gate a discount behind actions like email signups, social media follows, or even sharing with friends. This drives both repeat purchases and word-of-mouth, which contributes to a higher customer retention rate over time.
Embed the Rewards widget directly into your post-checkout page:
Or launch it in a popup tab to keep your message front and center:

Want to drive repeat sales and grow your community? Use a giveaway to deliver discount codes on your post-checkout page.
With Gleam, you can reward repeat customers who complete actions like follows, retweets, or Viral Shares. Then unlock their coupon once the required actions are complete.
You can even gate the Coupon action until users have shared or followed your brand:
Just like with Rewards campaigns, you can embed your giveaway on the post-checkout page or show it as a popup.
