Use Cases / Who It’s For
myCred Email Plus is built for any WordPress site owner who utilizes the myCred framework to gamify their user experience. If you run an e-commerce store, a membership site, or a community forum, this plugin is an invaluable tool for managing expectations and excitement.
For e-commerce store owners, it acts as a powerful marketing tool. By notifying customers when they have earned enough points for a discount, you create an immediate incentive for them to return and complete their next purchase. For membership site administrators, it serves as a vital engagement layer; letting members know they have earned “status points” or “activity rewards” validates their participation and encourages long-term loyalty.
Whether you are managing a small blog with a simple comment-reward system or a large-scale platform with complex point hierarchies, this plugin helps you maintain a professional line of communication with your users, reducing support inquiries about point balances and increasing overall site activity.
Setup / How It Works
Getting started with myCred Email Plus is straightforward, allowing you to activate your automated communication strategy in minutes:
- Installation: Install and activate the myCred Email Plus add-on within your WordPress dashboard, ensuring you already have the core myCred plugin active.
- Configuration: Navigate to the myCred settings area where the Email Plus options will now be available.
- Template Customization: Select the specific point events you wish to track and customize the corresponding email templates. Use the provided placeholders to ensure the correct data is pulled from the user’s account.
- Activation: Save your settings to enable the automated triggers. Once active, the system will monitor point transactions and dispatch emails automatically based on the rules you have defined.
