Introduction to SAVVY Loyalty programs
(You may skip to Section 1. Powering Up; if you are already familiar with SAVVY
concepts)
Many large business establishments use loyalty programs as part of their customer
relationship building process. Commonly it is in the form of giving rewards points for
accumulated purchases. Reward points may then redeem for rewards or cash and
expires after certain period when unused.
SAVVY’s objective is to make loyalty programs affordable to small and medium
businesses. A SAVVY loyalty terminal is all that required to operate a simple loyalty
program. Merchants have full control of their loyalty program from the shop floor.
Sophisticated loyalty program capabilities are available if operates with a PC e.g.
trading reports, audit trials, contest or lucky draw for most loyal customers etc.
SAVVY’s distinctive capabilities - more than a shop’s loyalty!
1) SAVVY also provides fours levels of loyalty benefits to consumers, such as
Brands, Shopping Malls and SAVVY loyalty too!
2) A SAVVY loyalty card may be use at any participating merchants.
Registration is so simple – by presenting the card and a push of button. The
SAVVY loyalty software can generate reports for new customers. Each card
can register at up to 48 shops (and Brands/Mall combined)
The SAVVY loyalty terminal provides a choice of 3 loyalty programs namely:
1) Cash Discount program
2) Point Redemption program
3) Point Accumulation program
Each of the programs has additional “Free Gift” tokens option to entice customers
patronage once a month.
Page 4
SAVVY loyalty program builds on “accumulated purchases” and “when the last
purchase” was made. The concept is simple:
1) More purchase builds to higher discount/reward.
2) Frequent shopping incentive (as in Cash Discount program): If subsequent
purchase is within stipulated “Bonus” periods, additional discount is given.
3) Less frequent shopping leads to lower incentives (for all 3 programs): If
subsequent purchase is made after a “Shopping Period” (set in days), certain
percentage of the accumulated amount (either cash or points) expires before
the cash discount is calculated or reward points added.
e.g. You set 50% of the accumulated amount to expire every 30 days.
Graph below shows amount of 100 (either in $ or points) expires over
several months of no shopping.

1. Cash Discount Program
This provides a 2-tier incentive - Regular and Bonus Discount
Regular Discount - more spending builds to higher discount.
$ Spend are accumulated for every purchase. Accumulated amount is
compared to a discount plan for cash discount calculation. Discount plan
consist of a table with 21 preset % discount levels (smallest step being
0.1%).
Example: Accumulated purchase between $100 and $200 has 0.5%
discount
Bonus Discount – incentive to frequent shoppers:
If a customer shops again within set periods, additional bonus discount is
given. 3 steps of Bonus discount can be set.
Reduced discount if shopping is infrequent:
When the “shopping period” becomes less frequent, the accumulated
amount is reduced by a certain set percentage for every “Shopping Period
(set in days).
N.B.
1) Range of accumulated purchase is $1 to $8,000
2) A SAVVY simulator is available to “test drive” the incentive plans
Regular, Bonus and % amount expiry combined.

Page 6
This is the most familiar and common form of loyalty programs. $ Spend is
converted to loyalty points by a conversion factor (e.g. $10 for one point with
factor of 10). Loyalty points are accumulated for every purchase and
customer may redeem for cash or goods. Range of points is 1 to 8000.
3. Point Accumulation Program – with multi-level rewards
In this program, you can set up multiple rewards (up to 21) for different
accumulated point levels. Each level has a reward e.g. higher reward levels
has increasing value; or you can have small rewards along the way leading
to a “super reward” at the highest level. Range of points is 1 to 8000.
When accumulated point reaches the next level, the terminal displays “R” to
inform the cashier a reward is due for claim. After reaching the highest
reward level, reward points can be reset and the Point accumulation process
can repeat again.
4. “Free Gifttokens
Free Gift is an additional feature to the Loyalty Programs. Free gifts are
intended as incentives to claim once per month. It is not link to accumulated
purchases. Entitlements are recorded on SAVVY cards, up to 7 free gift
tokens for each shop. Remaining Gift tokens is displayed as “f5” for 5 tokens
for example.
This feature can be enabled or disabled.
Note:
1) Value less the $1 are drop off before adding to the accumulated amount
in the SAVVY card e.g. if purchase amount is $50.85, it will be round
down at $50 before adding to the accumulated purchase.
2) Hence when viewing accumulated purchase, it will be rounded to the
dollar.

The Loyalty terminal uses the new accumulated point to look up the discount
percentage to compute discount. It consists of 21 steps of table for $ Spend
peg to a discount level. Each discount % can be as small as 0.1%.
3) Bonus Discount Plan
This has 3 additional discount level incentives to reward regular shoppers.

If the new accumulate purchase exceeds the set “maximum cash”, the new
accumulated purchase will be set at this amount. Maximum value is 8000.
6) Shopping Period
This is period (in days) set to “expire” a certain % of accumulated purchase
when next purchase is made after the “Shopping period”. The last
accumulated purchase will be reduced by a set “% cash to expire” before
adding new purchase for discount calculation
7) % Cash to expire
This is set in conjunction to “Shopping period” above.
Formula for calculation: Last accumulate cash x (100 - % to expire) ^
