Important Notes
- Only store admins can cancel or deactivate discount codes and reassign loyalty points.
- Once a discount is deleted, the action cannot be undone. Make sure the correct discount is selected before deleting it.
- Deactivating a discount will immediately make it invalid, but it will still remain in the discount list for reference.
- Points should be manually re-assigned to the customer only after confirming that the discount was redeemed or issued by mistake.
- Always verify the customer’s activity history in the Loyalty Members section before reassigning points.
- Reassigned points will be reflected in the customer’s loyalty popup and activity log for transparency.
- If a discount has already been used on a completed order, ensure the order status and refund conditions are reviewed before reassigning points.
- Customers cannot cancel discounts themselves, this action must be handled by the store admin.
- It is recommended to add a clear reason when giving points back to the customer for record-keeping and audit purposes.
