Translations
The Translations section allows defining many language versions used throughout the Open Loyalty platform. All content elements will appear in the selected default language.
Most of the text that appears to be hard-coded on pages throughout your loyalty platform can be instantly changed to a different language by changing the default language parameter. The Default language is selected during the translation creation process, but can be changed at any time in edition mode.
Moreover, during Campaigns and Tier creation/edition processes, an Admin can fulfill the Basic Information section in every language version listed here. For example, if we have Polish and English translations, there is a possibility to provide Basic information on Tiers and Campaigns in both languages.
Thanks to this, changing the default language translate the text word-for-word and references a different translation table that provides the interface text that is used in the Admin and Client cockpit. The text that can be changed includes navigational titles, labels, buttons, and links such as “List of customers” and “Account”, Campaigns and Tier names, description, etc.
Currently, Open Loyalty is available in English.

Roles
Open Loyalty platform uses roles and permissions to create different levels of access to the Admin Cockpit. When your platform is first installed, you receive a Super Admin role that has full permissions and gives you full administrative access.
However, you can restrict the permissions for other Admin users who work with you. For example, Customer Service may only have access to the Members section, but not to areas with settings.
Due to changes in ACL, someone with limited access to certain parts of Open Loyalty can receive error 403 on these pages.
Note:
To give someone restricted access to the Admin, the first step is to create a role that has the appropriate level of permissions.
After the role is saved, you can add new Admins and assign the restricted role to grant them limited access to the Admin.

Members realize transactions within each store according to the currency and store code. After creating several stores, in the top right corner, you’ll see a drop-down list where you can select a store. Once the store is selected, all the displayed data is exclusive to that selected store.
