This system allows you to monetize non-paying customers by having them complete offers, surveys, watch videos, etc in exchange for store credit on IP.Nexus. It allows you to convert potential customers into real customers by giving them an easy way to earn what you're selling. Not everyone has a credit card or PayPal account or means to pay online. Not everyone who wants your products is willing to pay for it. You still get paid, your users get what they wanted, and everyone wins.

Pays for itself
This modification allows you to monetize users who may have never paid for your products. Over time, it will pay for itself. I have been using it on my own site for many months now and have seen some great success from it. Many users on my site use this system to either get a full discount or a partial discount on our products by completing the offers and surveys.

Note
This modification requires an account on http://www.srpoints.com Instructions on how to properly set up your account on srpoints.com are included in the readme file.

I could use some insight maybe. How do I set up the currency change. I did what you asked...100=100, but what about that translates to Nexus money? Is 100 $1 already?

ps..the direct links in your installation guide are broken.

I'll update the links in the installation guide. SuperRewards seem to have updated their systems since I wrote the guide. Thanks!

The conversion from 100 virtual currency to $1 USD is just a conversion made in the app code. It doesn't have to be that way but I felt that that was the easiest way to get things up and running for new users since they didn't have to mess around with the currency. It was just less confusing to have it at a set conversion rate.

Edit: actually answer your question -- I thought it said something else when I quoted it but I guess I just misread or something O_O

Edit2: no double post detection? >_<

[Leo Light]

Alright, so 100 is already converted to $1.

Great. I think I am all set up, the only thing I am having trouble with now is uploading my W9..I keep trying to upload it in my account at superrewards, but it says error, try again every time..I know this isn't on your end..so I emailed them to see whats going on.

Thanks for the quick response.

Just noticed something else in the app on forums..I clicked on the survey tab and got this:

401 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials. You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied.

are we not supposed to have access to surveys? Thanks

Nope, you should have access on the public side -- that's how members complete the surveys. Can you link me to your site in a PM?

[Leo Light]

PM sent, thanks for the support thus far. The app is looking great so far...

[Leo Light]

I have some feedback from one of my members already.

He click on the survey, asked him for some demographic information, then redirected him to opinionsphere.com.

He completed the survey, then was told he was ineligible and that the survey was invalid. He did not receive any credits.

Ideas?

Thanks.

I would take this up with SuperRewards -- if there are any problems with the surveys and offers, they will be able to help. On the offers page, you should have a link to get help. That will explain how to contact SuperRewards :smile:.

[Leo Light]

Ok will do. This could be because things were still setting up.

He tried taking it again, and was more successful this time.

In the admin panel, in the application he is listed, and it say's he earned $1.56

Is that supposed to communicate with Nexus? His account credit in Nexus is still $0.00

Thanks

Hm, strange. Yes, it's supposed to update his account credit immediately. I updated the file download with a bugfix last night regarding this. I'm wondering if you have the old version of the code installed. Could you try reinstalling the application and letting me know what you find? I apologize for all the trouble :(. For now you might want to just manually update his account with $1.56 of store credit?

[Leo Light]

Ok, manually gave him credit. He also said that he did not receive a PM about his credits being awarded.

Am going to do the reinstall now.

Can you check a file for me on your server? Can you PM me the contents of /where/ever/your/forum/is/cache/sql_error_latest.cgi? I want to make sure that there was no issue in processing the postback from srpoints.com -- the PM happens after the store credit update.

[Cody Woolaver]

Sorry about the issue earlier -- there was a bug in the code where I was assuming that everyone had a table prefix of "ibf_" for their MySQL databases. Obviously that isn't going to be true always :P. I've fixed the code now so all new installs should work without issue.

Current installs will need to replace all the code -- just the PHP changed so no need to reinstall from the Admin CP as well.

To check the total points a user gets, login to the ACP and go to the offers and surveys app. The overview will have a log of users and their recent transactions. I'll look into the pm format and upload a new version when I have fixed it.

Thanks :)
