Additional AIQ Settings

The following additional settings are available on the Profitek integration card in AIQ. To access them, navigate to Settings > Integrations, locate Profitek and click on it to open the integration card.

Enroll Personas in loyalty program who purchased after

Automatically enrolls shoppers in the loyalty program if they had a sale on or after the date you specify. Enrolled shoppers earn points for sales on or after that date. Takes 24 hours to reflect.

Send SMS double opt-ins to Personas who purchased after

Sends an SMS double opt-in request to shoppers with a phone number who had a sale on or after the date you specify. Takes 24 hours to trigger.

⚠️ Warning: If this setting is removed after it has been set, it can cause loyalty Personas to be lost if they only became a member through this setting and did not use a signup form. We do not recommend changing this after it is set.

Use AIQ's last backup

Freezes data from this source at the last audience run and stops AIQ from hitting the Profitek API for new data.

⚠️ Warning: Do not turn this on unless you are switching POS systems and want to retain existing data.
