Welcome to Rewards

Easily create instant win embeddable rewards in exchange for actions from your users. In this guide we'll take you through the different types of rewards and get an overview of all the features to help maximise your Rewards campaign.

How to Use Rewards

Gleam is the tool of choice for marketing teams small or large due to its ease of use and flexibility. Rewards is loved by lifestyle bloggers, gamer communities, streamers, e-commerce businesses and more. Whether it's user acquisition, community building or you simply want to reward your loyal customers with some freebies, you can achieve that with a Rewards campaign.

Please note that Rewards are not engineered to be used as a customer referral program, they are designed to be redeemed instantly.

Here are some ideas on how you can use Rewards in your business:

  • Convert visitors into your social followers
  • Give Shopify coupon codes to your store visitors
  • Gives users a referral reward when they refer a number of users to complete social actions
  • Increase your social following by incentivising downloads or bonus content
  • Offer a discount to collect customer feedback or testimonial
  • Drive more sales by promoting your E-commerce store
  • Incentivise and distribute discount codes during flash sales
  • Offering a welcome gift to new subscribers in your mailing list
  • Embedding a sponsored campaign on multiple influencer's websites or blogs
  • Create a SoundCloud download gate to promote your music

Should I Use Competitions or Rewards?

While Competitions and Rewards both share similar mechanisms in terms of actions, Rewards is meant for all users to win something instantly. If you're looking to host a giveaway or contest that only rewards a set amount of winners after the campaign ends, then Gleam Competitions is a better choice.

Note

Rewards campaigns can be run regularly and indefinitely, unlike Competitions where there is a set deadline.
