Common Audience Filter Combinations
Spendgo offers many filter options, so you can target the right members with offers or messaging. There are endless possibilities when it comes to creating audiences in Spendgo, but there are some commonly used combinations for certain campaign goals.
In this article, you’ll learn how to create filter combinations for many common uses.
Things To Know
When using the campaign builder to send communications, make sure you have SMS messaging and/or email enabled in your account. While you can manually export and import audiences into third-party providers without integration, this isn't ideal for daily deliveries at scale. If you haven't set up email or SMS yet, please reach out to your Customer Success Manager to enable these channels and make the most of dynamic audiences.
When sending email or SMS messages, you will want to add the filter condition to target members who are subscribed to the specific channel you’re targeting. Add the following filter conditions
For targeting email subscribers, set the filter to Email Opt-in | is true.
For targeting SMS subscribers, set the filter to SMS Opt-in | is true.
Offer Expiring Soon
You can send email or SMS reminders to members whose offer is close to expiring. This encourages them to return, make a purchase, and utilize their offer. In this instance, we'll target an audience with their birthday offer expiring in 7 days as an example.
Choose all from the Members match dropdown.
Click (+) Add
For the first condition, set the filter to Offer Expiry | for | Choose your offer | is in (days) | Enter value input days (e.g. Offer Expiry | for | Birthday $10 Off | is in (days) | 7).
Click (+) Add
For the second condition, set the filter to Offer Not Used | for | Choose your offer | is true (e.g. Offer Not Used | for | Birthday $10 Off | is true).
Lapsed Members
Get in touch with members who haven't visited recently and encourage them to return soon. In this example, we’ll target an audience who has not made a visit in over 90 days.
Choose all from the Members match dropdown.
Click (+) Add
For the first condition, set the filter to Visits | is | 0 | with last (hours) | Enter value input days (e.g. Visits | is | 0 | with last (hours) | 2160).
Note: Hours is used instead of days to be more accurate to the member’s local time. Days are calculated in UTC, which means visits that may have occurred in the evening local time (within the Americas) can be logged in the next day UTC time.
New Registered Members
You can welcome new members and build their loyalty with your brand. In this example, we’ll target an audience who joined your brand yesterday.
Choose all from the Members match dropdown.
Click (+) Add
For the first condition, set the filter to Brand Join Date | within last (hours) | Enter value input days (e.g. Brand Join Date | within last (hours) | 34).
Note: this hour value is calculated based on 1 day in hours, plus the time at which the campaign is sent. For instance, if your campaign is sent at 10 am, the calculation would be 24 hours (1 day) plus 10 hours, resulting in 34 hours.
Click (+) Add
For the second condition, set the filter to Brand Join Date | not within last (hours) | Enter value input days (e.g. Brand Join Date | not within last (hours) | 10).
Note: this hour value is calculated based on the time at which the campaign is sent. For instance, if your campaign is sent at 10 am, I want to exclude the members who joined within the last 10 hours from the filter.
All Audience Filter Options
Our filter options are extensive, so you can choose a single condition or combine multiple conditions with positive and negative relationships to target the right members for each of your campaigns.
In this article, you'll find all the audience filter criteria available to you. For more information about filters, check out our Common Audience Filter Combinations articles, too.
For each filter condition we show here, you'll find a short description of what it controls, and a table that displays all of the options in the drop-down menus. In most cases, there are only three choices to make, but for some condition types, a fourth drop-down menu will appear.
Things To Know
Day filters are calculated based on the Universal Time Coordinated (UTC) timezone and include the current day when the audience is gathered. It's important to note that UTC days may start and end earlier than your local timezone. When setting up campaigns, consider how this impacts your filter criteria and scheduling.
If you schedule a campaign for the afternoon (like 5pm Pacific or later), it could result in members falling into the following UTC day. For example, if you schedule a campaign for 10am PST on August 7th with an audience filter of within 7 days, it will include members who meet the condition from August 1st to August 7th.
However, if you schedule a campaign for 6pm PST on August 7th (which is August 8th, 1:00 UTC), it will include members who meet the condition from August 2nd to August 8th PST.
An alternative approach is to use hours instead of days when configuring your filters.
Age
Filters members based on their age.
Operators | Actions |
---|---|
|
Choose a value input. |
Examples
Members who are 20 years old
Members who are not 18 years old
Members who are greater than 18 years old
Members who are less than 50 years old.
Average Ticket
Filters members based on their average ticket, which is calculated by dividing the combined order subtotals by the number of orders within a set time period.
Operators | Actions | Options |
---|---|---|
|
Choose a dollar value input. |
|
Examples
Member’s whose average ticket is $10 between August 1st, 2023 and August 8th, 2023 (between is not inclusive of the start and end dates).
Member’s whose average ticket is not $10 within the last 7 days.
Member’s whose average ticket is greater than $10 not within the last (i.e. before the last) 7 days.
Member’s whose average ticket is less than $10 within the last 24 hours.
Birthday
Filters members based on their birthday details.

Member’s whose birthday is in January.
Member’s whose birthday is on the exact date August 1.
Member’s whose birthday is in 7 days (which is 7 days before in the audience builder).
When a member’s birthday is in 7 days, this means 7 days prior to a member’s birthday they will enter the audience). Note: days are calculated based on UTC timezone. Keep in mind, days end earlier in North America depending on your timezone. If you plan to run a same-day campaign to issue an offer to members with their birthday today (i.e. is in 0 days), the campaign should start no later than 4:00pm PST (00:00 UTC the following day). Otherwise, the campaign will inadvertently target birthdays that fall on the next day.

Getting Started with Audiences
Audiences are a list of a member’s you can send a campaign to. You can use you’re member’s profile and historical activity to filter member’s into a dynamic audience. For example, you may want to send a text message and offer to your text subscribers who have not made a purchase in the last 60 days. Spendgo offers a lot of audience filter options, so you can make the most out of your audience.
Here are some examples of audiences you can create:
SMS subscribed members who spent more than $100 within the last 7 days.
Email subscribed members who didn't use their Birthday offer.
Member’s who recently made a purchase.
Member’s whose average ticket is $20 in the month of August.
Member’s who joined recently and has not used their welcome offer.
Member’s who haven’t visited in the last 90 days.
In this article, you'll learn how to create and implement an audience.
Things To Know
Here are some things you should know about your audiences.
Audiences are dynamic, meaning members can move in and out of an audience based on the filter criteria and the time at which the audience is applied.
Audiences are compatible with the Date & Time and Recurring automations.
Days are calculated based on the Universal Time Coordinated (UTC) timezone and include the current day when the audience is gathered. It's important to note that UTC days may start and end earlier than your local timezone. When setting up campaigns, consider how this impacts your filter criteria and scheduling.
If you schedule a campaign for the afternoon (like 5pm Pacific or later), it could result in members falling into the following UTC day. For example, if you schedule a campaign for 10am PST on August 7th with an audience filter of within 7 days, it will include members who meet the condition from August 1st to August 7th.
However, if you schedule a campaign for 6pm PST on August 7th (which is August 8th, 1:00 UTC), it will include members who meet the condition from August 2nd to August 8th PST.
An alternative approach is to use hours instead of days when configuring your filters.

The and/or variable that determines whether a single or all conditions must be true in an audience.
About Filters
When you create audience filters, you'll set conditions to filter members. Depending on the audience’s logic of and/or, only 1 or all conditions must be met.
Term | Meaning | Example |
---|---|---|
All | This logic tells our system to filter members who meet all of your conditions. | All members who made a purchase recently. |

Create a Winback Campaign
A winback campaign is a powerful marketing strategy that targets inactive or lapsed customers, aiming to re-engage them with your brand. This approach brings back previous customers, leading to increased conversion rates, valuable feedback, reinforced loyalty, and opportunities for upselling, making it an essential means of growing your business and connecting with your audience.
Winback Campaign Example
A common campaign example is to run a daily recurring campaign giving an offer to members who have not made a purchase within the last 90 days.
How-to Create A Winback Campaign
In your Dashboard, navigate to Campaigns / Create New Campaign.
Select Recurring automation type.
Set the interval to Daily.
Set the daily run time at which the offer will be issued to the lapsed audience, and click Next Step. We recommend it be at least 1 hour before your store opens for the day.
Select the Offer action.
Enter the details of your offer and click Next Step.
Turn on the segment, and maintain who you are sending this campaign to as a + New Audience.
Name your new audience something easily identifiable — such as, 90 lapsed members.
Maintain the Members match all conditions.
Click + Add to add an audience filter.
Enter the condition Visits | is | 0 | within last (days) | 90.
This looks for all members who did not visit within the last 90 days.Enter the condition Visits | is not | 0 | within last (days) | 91 and click Next Step.
This looks for all members who visited within last 91 days. By combining these filters with an ALL operator, you're effectively identifying people who did not visit exactly 90 days ago. When your daily campaign sends every day, those who make a visit today will be excluded from tomorrow’s send so they are not being spammed.Name your campaign.
Schedule when you want your campaign to start.
Note: if you set the start time after the daily recurring run time, the first time the offer is sent out will be the following day after the. campaign start date.Review and Save your campaign.
Store Settings
Your Store Settings is a cental place to view and manage all your store details in your account.
Stores are defined as the places where a member visits, makes purchases, earns points, or redeems offers. These activity types are associated with the store at which the event occurs. Members have the option to select a favorite store, allowing for targeted marketing tailored to their preferred shopping location. Many of your program insights can be filtered by your member’s favorite store details.
Things To Know
Stores cannot be deleted; this preserves any transation or member’s favorite store data associated with the store.
Updates to a store’s number may break your POS, e-commerce, or marketing integrations. Whenever making updates to the store details, also update all your integrated platform providers to ensure the mapping of the store numbers match and the connected integrations are not broken.
Existing store details can be edited and repurposed by an Admin or Marketing Manager user; however, this will impact past data associated with the store. For example, if “Store A” details are updated to the new labeling of “Store B”, going forward all of “Store A” past data will be associated with the new label of “Store B”. If you have any 3rd-party marketing integrations, any prior synced member store preferences will not be updated when a store label changes in the Spendgo system. A member’s store preference will only update to 3rd-party providers when a member makes an update to their account.
Create A New Store
You must be an Admin or Marketing Manager user to create a store.
Navigate to your Dashboard Settings / Stores.
Click + Create New Store button.
Enter the store details. See Store Details below for more information.
Click Save.
Manage Your Store Settings
You must be an Admin or Marketing Manager user to create a store.

Enter the store details. See Store Details below for more information.
Click Save.
Store Details
Field | Description |
---|---|
Store Name | The store name is visible to your members. Most often they will see the store name on digital transactions, in their activity feed, and their favorite store preference. |
Store Number | The store number is a unique alphanumeric code for the store. It's important that your store numbers are in sync across your Spendgo integrations for orders and/or loyalty to work properly. |
Street Address | Street address of the store location. |
City | City of the store location. |
State/Province | State/Province of the store location. |
Zip/Postal Code | Zip/Postal Code of the store location. |
Store Phone Number | Store phone number at the store location. |
Status |
Store status values are:
• Open for when the store is live and open.
|
Discount Code Override |
The Discount Code Override allows Admin and Marketing Manager users to override the campaign discount codes on a store-level. For example, if Store A's Discount Code Override is set to "DISCOUNT A", and an offer was created with the discount code of "DISCOUNT ALL", at Store A, the discount code of "DISCOUNT ALL" will be overridden and uses the "DISCOUNT A". This is most commonly used when a store has a unique POS system where there is discount code variation between stores.
Note: only one (1) Discount Code Override value can be set per store. |
Manage Campaigns
Managing campaigns in your Spendgo dashboard is easier than ever. You can view your campaign details, edit, duplicate, stop and archive campaigns all from the Campaign Management table in your dashboard.
Things to know
If you Edit or Duplicate a campaign where you’ve requests customization by the Spendgo team, those customization will not be retained.
Once a campaign is archived, this cannot be undone. This will remove it from your reporting as well as from the support tools for adding offers to Member accounts.
When duplicating a campaign the automation rules from the original campaign cannot be changed (ex. a recurring campaign that runs daily at 8am), but you can change the incentive or message being sent as well as the audience and start/end dates. Note that you should rename the campaign to something unique so that you can easily distinguish between the original can duplicates.
Tip
After creating a campaign view the details to make sure everything is set up correctly.
If you find you’ve made a mistake, it is best to stop the campaign before it starts, duplicate it, change the mistake and save it as a new campaign. Then archive the old campaign (the one with a mistake) to remove it.

Billing a Single User
Billing a single user for marketing is a feature that comes with the Local Store Marketing add-on. It allows users (e.g. Franchise users) to run their own campaigns and manage their own spend on text message campaigns.
Franchisee users with marketing permissions can securly subscribe and manage their payment information enabling text message campaigns in their account.
Things to Know
All payment information is hosted by a 3rd-party application, Chargebee, which allows for a secure way to manage your payment and plan information.
User-level billing is only available to Enterprise accounts with the local store marketing add-on enabled. Billing rules only apply to two roles: Franchisee - Insights & Marketing, and Franchisee - Insights, Marketing & Support. Other roles either do not have marketing permissions or are not restricted by user-level billing rules.
At minimum, a Franchise user must have an active subscription to a “Single-User Marketing” plan for the current calendar month to schedule any campaigns. You can subscribe at anytime in the month, there is no prorated rate; this is a volume based plan. Any overages will be charged to your card on file. Subscription renewals are processed on the first of every month at 00:00 AM PST.
To cancel or downgrade your subscription email billing@spendgo.com before you next monthly renewal, your services will continue to be available until the end of the month and you may be charged overages to your card on file if you exceed your plan’s messaging allocation.
Note: you must be a Franchisee - Insights & Marketing or Franchisee - Insights, Marketing & Support in a Enterprise account with local store marketing add-on enbaled to see the billing settings.
When your payment is good to go, you will see a notification that states “Status: Everything is running smoothly!”. It May take up to 30 minute for your first payment to process and for you account to be enabled.
When your payment needs attention, you will see a red notification that states: “Needs attention: Please check your billing information.”
