Abstract (en)
[origin: WO0177856A1] A method and system provides a loyalty program in conjunction with an online promotions system wherein users are presented with promotions at least some of which include rewards associated with certain user actions. Where a user selects and downloads a promotion (204), the loyalty system updates (206) the user loyalty account to give credit for a first reward associated with the selected promotion. Upon the user taking a further action (208) on the promotion, such as by purchasing the good or service associated with the promotion, the loyalty system provides the user with a second loyalty reward and updates (210) the user loyalty account to reflect a credit for the second reward. The system may operate in conjunction with a point-of-sale system, wherein the second reward is instantaneously updated and presented to the user. The online promotions system presents the user with a status of current loyalty rewards received and pending loyalty rewards which could be received upon the user taking further action.
