Manually adjusting a customer’s points balance allows you to either add or remove points from an individual customer’s loyalty account.
✅ Tip: Smile automatically adjusts a customer’s points balance when an order is refunded. To learn more, read our article on configuring points cancellations for refunds.
Manually adjust a customer's points balance
Manual adjustments are visible to the customer in their Smile panel. They will see their updated points balance, along with the addition or removal of points in their points history.
Manual adjustments do not trigger an email notification to the customer. If you’d like to notify the customer, you’ll need to do so outside of Smile.
To manually adjust a points balance:
In Smile Admin, navigate to Customers.
Search for the customer you want to adjust.
Select the customer.
In the Points card on the customer profile, click Adjust balance.
Input the points to be added or subtracted. If you want to remove points, enter a negative number (e.g., -10).
Add a Reason for adjustment. This is an internal note for your records.
Select Custom description to add a customer facing note for the adjustment or leave the Default description selected. This note is visible to the customer in the Smile panel.
Click Adjust points.
📋 Note: If you have a VIP Program enabled and the adjustment causes the customer to enter a new VIP tier, they will receive the entry rewards for that tier. Negative adjustments that cause a customer to be removed from a VIP tier will not remove any previously earned rewards.
✅ Tip: To adjust the points balances for multiple customers at once, review our guide on importing points using a CSV file.
