How are Points Calculated

Points are calculated from a set of multipliers applied to a receipt's eligible subtotal. The variables and rules below define exactly how the number of points earned is determined.

Variables

• m_status — the user's status multiplier (max 2×)
• m_plus — the user's subscription multiplier (max 2×)
• m_loc — the location's point multiplier
• s — the receipt subtotal, minus any applicable discounts and before tax
• m_user — the combined user multiplier, where m_user = m_status × m_plus

How points are calculated

The number of points earned depends on whether the location has a special multiplier:

1. Location has no multiplier — when m_loc = 1: points = (m_status × m_plus) × s
2. Location multiplier only — when m_loc > 1 and m_status = m_plus = 1: points = m_loc × s
3. Location multiplier + user bonus — when m_loc > 1 and either m_status > 1 or m_plus > 1: points = (m_loc + (m_status × m_plus)) × s
