You may have noticed a recent disruption with the receipt of our SMS "low stock alerts." Unfortunately, this situation has arisen due to a delivery issue involving our carrier, with whom we have encountered challenges. They are currently classifying Canadian cannabis as non-compliant, resulting in the interruption of our service.

Our team is diligently working on resolving this matter with our carrier in order to restore the timely delivery of alerts to retailers.

We apologize for any inconvenience caused by this situation. We greatly appreciate your understanding and patience as we work towards a swift resolution.

Thank you for your continued support.

When we started Greenline, our vision was to make lives better for the thousands of Canadian cannabis retailers out there throughout the creation of the legal industry. Now, 5 years later, I truly believe that we have made a positive impact on the industry. I'm filled with pride for all the things our team has been able to accomplish over the years, backed up by the incredible comments our customers have left us about our product and support.

Today, I'm announcing my departure from the company. Greenline is in good hands with BLAZE. After 6 long years in the field, I've decided that it's time for me to move on and pursue other personal interests and projects, perhaps even build something new.

Thank you everyone for this incredible journey. Thank you to our customers that use Greenline and put in a good word for others in the industry. You can continue to expect the same level of Canadian-based service you've come to rely on and enjoy even more product offerings in the future. Thank you to our partners who have helped us add value to our offerings. If you have any questions for the Greenline team, feel free to contact them at sales-ca@blaze.me.  I only wish the best for everyone.

If you'd like to chat or get help about anything related to being a founder, startups, technology, operations, acquisitions, culture, the future (and more), don't hesitate to reach out to me! I would love nothing more than to share stories put to pass on my learnings. Until next time 👋

Discounts redeemable with Loyalty balance

Retailers are now able to set up discounts to be redeemable in the POS using loyalty balance. Customers can use their accrued points to redeem product, cart, and even bundle discounts on the POS.

Bugs

Dashboard - Fixed an issue where discounts that were not linked to any tier and had 0 points set for redemption were showing a tier-specific discount icon.

Dashboard - Fixed an issue where there was a discrepancy between sale and refund when using points with cents value.

POS - Fixed an issue where buttons would overlap in the Register screen when resizing the window.

Today, we are releasing loyalty redeemable discounts on Greenline.

What are they? In Greenline, loyalty points can now be used in 2 ways: as a payment type, or to redeem discounts (new).

Getting started

First, you should create a loyalty tier so that customers can start collecting points. This article goes over the basics of setting one up and how to use them. Alternatively, points can be manually adjusted for customers via the Dashboard customer export/import tool.

Next, create a discount that requires loyalty points in order to redeem. When creating or editing a discount, scroll down until you see the “Loyalty” section. From there, you can enter the number of loyalty points required to redeem the discount. Optionally, you can also restrict its redemption based on a specific loyalty tier.

Applying loyalty redeemable discounts on the POS

When a customer with a sufficient loyalty balance is added to the POS cart, and there are loyalty redeemable discounts available, you will see the loyalty discount icon in 2 potential places:

1. On the cart discount button
2. On the product discount button (requires expanding the product cart item)

In each case, loyalty redeemable discounts will be brought to the top of the discount list for easy selection. Adding the discount will remove loyalty points appropriately from the customer’s balance once the payment is successfully made.
