Voucher campaigns

Voucher campaigns deliver personal offers to specific customers — a win-back voucher to regulars who’ve gone quiet, a thank-you to your highest spenders — by SMS, email, or push. Unlike a public coupon code, each voucher is issued to one customer, who accepts it in your app and redeems it on an order. That makes vouchers feel like a gesture rather than an ad, and makes their results precisely measurable.

ModeWhereHow it runs
PromotionMarketing → PromotionA one-off push: you define the offer and the audience, it sends, it’s done. Good for events — a holiday weekend, a new menu launch.
AutopilotMarketing → AutopilotAlways-on: the campaign watches customer behavior and fires automatically when a customer matches its trigger — e.g. a win-back voucher when a regular hasn’t ordered in a while, or a celebratory offer on a personal date. Set it up once; it works every day after.
  1. The campaign selects the customer (your targeting for promotions; the trigger for autopilot).
  2. The voucher is delivered by SMS, email, or push. Delivery respects each customer’s per-channel consent — a customer who opted out of SMS but allows push gets the push, and a customer who opted out everywhere is skipped.
  3. The customer accepts the voucher in your app and redeems it on an order.

Because acceptance is explicit, your reports distinguish “delivered”, “accepted”, and “redeemed” — you can see exactly where each campaign loses people.

CampaignModeThe play
Win-backAutopilotA voucher fires automatically when a regular goes quiet — recovered regulars are the cheapest revenue you’ll ever buy
VIP thank-youPromotionA no-strings voucher to your highest spenders; goodwill that shows up in retention, not just redemptions
New-dish trialPromotionA voucher tied to a launch week gets your regulars tasting the new menu while it’s news
Slow-night fillerPromotionA short-validity voucher sent the same week — urgency is the point
Celebration offerAutopilotA personal-date trigger that arrives feeling like a gesture, not a blast

Start with one autopilot win-back and let it run; layer promotions on top for occasions.

Voucher campaigns run continuously (especially autopilot), so they ship with their own monitoring pages under the voucher campaign section:

PageRouteUse it to
Campaign health/configuration/voucher-campaign/healthSee at a glance whether campaigns are running and delivering normally
Pending triggers/configuration/voucher-campaign/pending-triggersInspect autopilot triggers that have matched but not yet completed
Diagnostics/configuration/voucher-campaign/diagnosticsDig into a specific campaign or customer when something looks off

Glance at the health page after launching anything new, and weekly once campaigns are steady-state.

Campaign results live under Dashboard → Reports in the voucher campaign reports:

Campaign performance is the one to act on: it shows what each campaign generated against what it gave away, so you can kill underperformers and scale winners.

SymptomTry this
A customer didn’t receive a voucherCheck their channel consent — opted-out channels are skipped by design; then check diagnostics for that customer
Autopilot campaign seems inactiveConfirm it’s enabled in the Autopilot list, then check pending triggers and the health page
Deliveries going out slowly or failingCheck the health page and the delivery performance report (api-perf)
Vouchers delivered but not redeemedThe offer or its window may be too weak — compare accepted-vs-redeemed in customer engagement
Same customer getting too many offersReview overlapping campaigns in both Promotion and Autopilot lists — narrow the targeting so audiences don’t stack
Want the same offer for everyoneThat’s a public coupon announced via a marketing campaign, not a voucher campaign
