Loyalty programs work best when customers know what they have earned and how to use it.

A customer may earn wallet coins, create a reward coupon, refer a friend, leave a review, or approach coin expiry. But if that update stays inside the loyalty platform, the customer may never act on it.

That is where the Nector + BiteSpeed integration helps.

The integration connects Nector customer activity events with BiteSpeed WhatsApp messaging. Nector's help guide explains that WhatsApp messages can be sent through BiteSpeed for events that occur in Nector, such as when a customer is rewarded with wallet coins.

For Shopify, DTC, ecommerce, and omnichannel brands, this means loyalty activity can be a timely WhatsApp message. Instead of waiting for customers to check their rewards balance, brands can send updates for wallet coins, coupons, referrals, reviews, expiry reminders, and other retention moments.

Turn loyalty activity into WhatsApp messages. Connect Nector with BiteSpeed to send wallet coin, coupon, referral, review, and expiry updates whenever selected customer actions happen in Nector. Book a Demo

Why WhatsApp Matters for Loyalty Communication

Customers do not always remember their loyalty balance. They may earn coins after a purchase, generate a coupon, or receive a referral reward, but unless the brand reminds them, that value can go unused. This creates a gap between earning rewards and actually redeeming them.

WhatsApp helps close that gap by making loyalty updates more visible and immediate. When a loyalty event happens in Nector, BiteSpeed can help brands send a WhatsApp message connected to that event.

Nector is built as an omnichannel loyalty, referrals, and reviews platform that helps brands turn first-time customers into repeat buyers across online and retail journeys. BiteSpeed adds the WhatsApp communication layer, helping brands notify customers when selected Nector events happen.

The goal is not to send more messages. The goal is to send timely messages that help customers understand and use their loyalty value.

What the Nector + BiteSpeed Integration Does

The Nector + BiteSpeed integration connects Nector customer events with BiteSpeed WhatsApp templates.

At a product level, the integration helps merchants connect BiteSpeed with Nector using a Channel ID and User ID, select Mobile as the common customer property for WhatsApp communication, create WhatsApp templates inside BiteSpeed, create matching events inside Nector, send selected Nector events to BiteSpeed, add the BiteSpeed Template ID while creating the Nector event, map Nector properties to BiteSpeed template variables, and send test events before launch.

Nector's BiteSpeed guide highlights two commonly used events: Wallet Coins Rewarded and Coupon Is Created.

How the Nector + BiteSpeed Integration Workflow Works

Step 1: Open WhatsApp Marketing in Nector

Merchants go to the Integrations page, select WhatsApp Marketing from the sidebar, find BiteSpeed, and click Configure to open the BiteSpeed integration page.

Step 2: Get Channel ID and User ID From BiteSpeed

Merchants should contact the BiteSpeed team directly to get the Channel ID and User ID. Once received, the merchant pastes them into the Nector dashboard.

Step 3: Select Mobile as the Common Property

Under Choose Common Property, merchants should select Mobile as the mode of communication. For WhatsApp messaging, the mobile number is the key identifier.

Step 4: Initialize the Integration

After entering the Channel ID, User ID, and common property, the merchant clicks Initialize.

Step 5: Create a WhatsApp Template in BiteSpeed

Merchants go to WhatsApp → Templates, click Create, enter the required template details, add custom variables if needed, and save or submit the template. Nector says the merchant should remember the template name and use it later while creating the event in Nector.

Step 6: Create a Matching Event in Nector

After the BiteSpeed template is ready, the merchant returns to the BiteSpeed integration page in Nector, opens the Events tab, and clicks Create an Event. The merchant then selects the Nector event they want to send to BiteSpeed, such as Wallet Coins Rewarded or Coupon Is Created.

Step 7: Add the BiteSpeed Template ID

While creating the event, Nector asks for the BiteSpeed Template ID. The template ID is obtained from the BiteSpeed dashboard.

Step 8: Map Nector Properties to BiteSpeed Template Variables

If the BiteSpeed WhatsApp template uses variables, the merchant must map the correct Nector properties in the same order, such as amount and user balance.

Step 9: Create the Event and Send a Test

Once the template ID and properties are added, the merchant clicks Create and sends a test event. The customer's mobile number used for the test must exist in the store's customer database.

Use Cases for Shopify and DTC Brands

1. Send Wallet Coins Rewarded Messages

Example message: “Hi Riya, you just earned 100 coins. Your current balance is 450 coins. Redeem them on your next order.”

2. Send Coupon Created Messages

Example message: “Your reward coupon is ready. Use it on your next order before you forget.”

3. Send Referral Reward Updates

Brands can use this to notify customers when a referral action happens, when a reward is available, or when they should invite another friend.

4. Send Coin Expiry Notifications

Example message: “Your coins are expiring soon. Redeem them before they expire.”

5. Send Review Request Messages

A WhatsApp message can ask customers to share feedback and remind them about any configured loyalty reward.

6. Educate Customers After Purchase

Brands can use WhatsApp messages to explain how many coins were earned, how to redeem coins, how coupons work, how referrals work, how reviews can earn rewards, and when coins expire.

7. Re-Engage Customers With Available Reward Value

The Nector + BiteSpeed integration can help brands remind customers about unused coins or created coupons through WhatsApp, making retention communication more timely and action-oriented.
