As You see, the key advantage of purchasing points is clear. Paying with points gives discounts on the promotion options, because the conversion rate is 1 to 1: the nominal value of 1 point is 1 EUR. Example: user buys promotion options for his or her offer at a total price of 100 EUR, but he or she can also buy 100 points at 90 EUR and use them for advertising his or her offer. If he or she decides to buy points, he or she will save 10 EUR on promotion options.
For bigger points packs, the savings are bigger too. Buying 400 points will give a discount of 25% off the prices. It means that purchasing the biggest points pack will save 100 EUR! We encourage You then to buy points, whenever You wish to promote Your stocks at Merkandi.
