Smile Rewards 😊

With more than 40,000 live stores and over 3,500 five star reviews, Smile Rewards & Loyalty is Shopify's most popular reward application.

Since its establishment, Smile io has accumulated over ten years of customer experience and has collaborated with tens of thousands of merchants on Shopify to establish robust rewards programmes that work to increase sales from existing client bases.

Through accumulated loyalty points and customer rewards, retailers on Shopify enhance consumer engagement and promote repeat purchases with Smile io.

This is achieved by enforcing a reward loyalty program for eager shoppers, as opposed to taking more traditional, expensive and unpredictable means of advertising.

So, for today's guide, we are going to focus on the Smile Rewards & Loyalty application, which is available to download via the Shopify App Store:
