Smartcoin program is another option for you to promote products and increase your orders on Meesho. In this program, you get a chance to offer Smartcoins on your products that can be used by customers to avail discounts on their future purchases. For eg, if you give a 5% discount contribution on a saree, it will get converted into Smartcoins equivalent to 10% of the price of the saree (2x of the discount offered). Customers who order that product will earn 10% Smartcoins after the product is delivered and its return period is over.
These Smartcoins can be used by customers when they order next to get a discount (1 Smartcoin = 1 Rupee), thus increasing chances of repeat purchases from them.
You will be charged only for successful orders (no charge for cancelled or returned order) basis your smartcoin discount contribution % that you gave during participation. For eg – T-shirt price is Rs 300 , and your Smartcoin contribution is 5%, then you will be charged Rs 15 (5% * 300)
Users will receive 30 Smartcoins (2x of the contribution value) as additional bonus under this program.
How is this different from other promotional construct?
In this program, seller does not give direct discounts to customers. Instead, customers will earn Smartcoins (1 smartcoin = 1 Rs.) on ordering that product from that seller.
These Smartcoins can be used by customers to get discount on their next order.
For eg – A seller participates in this program on a saree of Rs 300 with a 5% discount contribution, seller offers 15 (5% * 300) Smartcoins on it If the customer purchases that saree, they will earn 30 Smartcoins (2x of the contribution as added bonus) on this product.
