Receipt uploads, purchase verification, points on spend, and offline transaction tracking
Receipt Scanning for customer loyalty apps
Capture loyalty credit for purchases that happen outside your digital checkout. Members upload a receipt photo, you verify the spend, and points are awarded automatically or after review.
UseLoyalty supports receipt-based point earning through upload quests, manual and automated review flows, points rules tied to spend amounts, and dashboard activity tracking.

In the app
Customer moments this feature can power
- A member uploads a receipt photo through the loyalty portal or widget after making a purchase.
- The submission enters a review queue where staff can approve or reject based on spend, date, and items.
- Points are awarded to the member's balance once the receipt is approved — manually or automatically.
- Members can track submission status and see points added after verification.
In the dashboard
Controls merchants should expect
- Enable receipt upload as a quest or standalone earning action in the dashboard.
- Set points per dollar spent, flat points per receipt, or custom reward rules.
- Review submitted receipts, approve or reject with a reason, and manage limits per member or period.
- Track total receipts submitted, approval rate, points issued, and fraud patterns.
