Threshold Changes

Change
What Happens

Lower threshold

More customers may qualify for this tier

Raise threshold

Some customers may no longer qualify

After threshold changes:

  1. Run tier recalculation to update assignments

  2. Customers are reassigned based on their current spending

  3. Tier change logs record all movements

Best Practices

  • Review customer distribution before changing thresholds

  • Communicate changes to customers if rates decrease

  • Make changes during off-peak hours to minimize confusion

  • Test with one tier first before making program-wide changes


Evaluation Period Changes

Change
Effect

Annual → Lifetime

All historical spending counts; customers may upgrade

Lifetime → Annual

Only last 12 months count; customers may downgrade

Recommendation: Set your evaluation period before launching and avoid changing it. If you must change:

  1. Export current tier distribution

  2. Communicate the change to customers

  3. Make the change during low-activity period

  4. Monitor tier assignments closely afterward
