Rules of participation

One of our aims in the stage of application of the programme in operators and commercial sectors is the adaptation of the marketing system of Shop2Win to the operator´s own loyalty strategy.

The marketing principles of Shop2Win and the lure of the programme (higher or lower share of cash prizes of the National Lottery depending on customer´s consumption) is quite straightforward. However, due to the wide range of commercial sectors it can be applied to, we must determine, for all of them,  the precise contribution to that loyalty we require from customers to get their free share of bets in lottery draws (shopping, services, etc.). The most accurate definition of this loyalty requirement for each sector is what best defines the PARTICIPATION RULES. This is the most important document cardholders will receive together with their Shop2Win card. This set of participation rules would have previously been published to the cardholdres.

In the section: STAGES OF APPLICATION (previous page), one can see at which stage are these rules to be designed: Stage I “Consultancy for the application of Shop2Win”.

The rules are a comprehensive description of all the possible events of the Shop2Win loyalty programme as well as a description of all the sources of information.
