A Saver writes in because they are missing cash back for their 02/03/25 Ticketmaster purchase. They send in a PDF of their order which includes a timestamp, subtotal, items purchased, and OID. During your investigation, you do not find a receipt in admin. Then, you convert the time into UTC and come up with 13:52 UTC on 02/03/2025. You then go looking for a valid launch. You notice there is only one launch on 02/03/2025 at 14:01 UTC. This is an example of what?

What is... a Did Not Tap situation? The Saver clearly tapped to launch after they made their purchase.

A saver writes in about their Lowes purchase. They provide a PDF of the purchase confirmation. The confirmation shows that they purchased 12 panels of fencing with a subtotal of $958.56. They are irate because they did not get the $23 cash back they were expecting. They want to know why they only received $4.79. Upon review of the offer details, it is determined that fencing would only fit into the 0.5% all other purchases category. What would be the best macro to send here?

Upon reviewing the offer details you deny cash back because they purchased Air Jordans. You then respond and educate the Saver on the offer details. The next day you receive a response from the Saver and they are mad about the cash back. How would you handle the ticket in this scenario?

What is...determine how many Ecomm Forgiveness credits they have received in the past 90 days. If eligible QC for the cash back, leave a note in Admin, dispo the ticket and respond with the Ecommerce::Able to Credit::Crediting Policy::Ecomm Forgiveness macro.

A saver writes in about a missing Chewy order. They send a screenshot and include all necessary items for investigation. After reviewing the confirmation, you notice they have used a discount on their purchase. During the investigation, you find a valid launch, but there is no receipt in admin. You look at the offer details and it says that the offer is not valid in combination with coupons, promo codes, or discounts. What is your next step in this instance?

What is... determine the amount of cash back. Then either QC or escalate the case to Ecomm 2 so they can create an ANI. 

*Remember: The use of coupons cannot be the only reason to deny a purchase. 

Now let’s say if they bought a SuperChewer box and used a discount then we could deny it, but not solely based on coupon usage.

A saver writes to Care about their missing 04/13/25 Sephora order (pretending you are reviewing the ticket on 04/17/25). Upon investigation, you do not find a receipt in admin, but you do find a valid launch. The expected cash back is $5.00. What macro would you use for this scenario?

What is... Rakuten - 7 Day Waiting Period

Sephora is a Rakuten retailer, therefore, we must wait 7 days after the purchase was made for the order to come into admin. Since it has been less than seven days since the purchase was made, we must educate the saver accordingly.
