What's New in Lootly: WooCommerce v1.47: Less Friction, More Redemptions + platform optimizations

Most loyalty programs don't lose customers at sign-up — they lose them at the moment of redemption. A clunky checkout, an extra step, a coupon code that has to be copied and pasted: that's where the drop-off happens.

Version 1.47 of the Lootly WooCommerce plugin is built around that exact problem. Here's what's new.

🛒 In-Cart Redemption Widgets

Customers can now redeem their points without ever leaving the cart.

We've launched two new point redemption widgets that work directly in the cart experience: a rewards dropdown menu and a variable point redemption slider. Customers select a reward, and the coupon code is auto-applied — cart ready, no extra steps required.

Both widgets are fully customizable and adapt to your store's default language, so the experience feels native rather than bolted on.

Fewer steps between "I want to redeem" and "order placed" means fewer abandoned carts and more points actually used.

⚡ Auto-Apply Coupon Codes from the Program Widget and Rewards Page

No more copy-pasting. Lootly now auto-applies reward coupon codes directly from both the program widget and the rewards page, dropping customers into a cart that's already prepped and ready to go.

To enable it: Integrations → Settings → check "Auto-apply coupon codes"

🎁 Free Product Rewards with Variant Support

You can now offer a specific variant of a variable product as a free product reward.

When a customer redeems this reward on the rewards page, a modal opens letting them choose their preferred variant — size, color, or any other attribute. Once they select it, the variant and the coupon code are automatically added to their cart. No further action needed on their end.

👑 VIP Lifetime Rewards Are Automatically Applied to the Cart

If you have a VIP program and are offering lifetime rewards, these are now automatically applied to the cart once the customer adds a product to cart.

Rewards like $ off, % off, free shipping are automatically applied once the cart meets the reward requirement (for example, if you offer free shipping on orders over $X, once the cart total meets the $ requirement, the code for free shipping is auto-applied, without the customer having to do anything).

💡 Pro tip: customize your lifetime VIP rewards' coupon codes with a code prefix, to communicate to your customers that their lifetime reward is applied to the cart.

Note: if you want to offer multiple types of rewards as lifetime rewards, like $ off and free shipping reward, make sure you allow coupon stacking in your Integration settings.

👁️ Improved Lootly Email Notifications Preview

The email editors in Lootly are templates which means they support different earning/spending actions which may have different email text. We have added better preview functions to ensure you can see exactly how your changes in the template will look for each specific action.

All features share the same goal: reducing friction at the exact moment customers are ready to redeem — which is exactly where most programs lose them.
