Loyalty points

Im sure this was been asked before , but how Is it decided how many points you get per purchase.
I buy 2 tickets for lincoln and get 1 point
I buy 2 tickets for Crawley and get 2 points
I have tried looking on the website but can't find anything
Thanks

 

You can only get points for 1 ticket, other needs to be assigned to someone else to get points.

 

Gotcha thanks

 

Double if you know Alan Smith

 

God knows how many I've missed out on

 

you tend to get two points for the further away games.

 

Further away from where you live or Oakwell?

 

Lol, that makes sense now I only got one for the charlton game , is it because I live 20 miles away from the valley

 

Further away from Oakwell I believe. Usually when they release ticketing info, it says how many points you get for buying a ticket. For example, it says this for Stevenage tickets:

Supporters will be allocated 2 loyalty points for purchasing their tickets in advance.

 

No loyalty for those that travel hours to come to Oakwell though, which is a shame. Not sure how they'd do it mind.

 

I believe it also helps if you go by club coach

 

In fairness, I don't think the idea of the points system is to 'reward' people as such, it's just to ensure people who regularly go to away games get priority when there's a small allocation.

 

I've got some points for buying club coach tickets to Plymouth even though I never went to that game!

 

I may be wrong but, doesn't the points system reward season ticket holders who also regularly go away, to get priority when there's a small allocation? The number of points given for an away match, if you haven't already got the large number given for having a ST is pretty meaningless?

 

Treble if he's took a selfie with you

 

It also doesn’t matter how many points you have if you no longer have a season ticket holder as you have to wait until after all season ticket holders are given the option to purchase first regardless and they go straight to general sale.

 

I believe so, yes. Which is wrong when you think about it, as I imagine everyone has a client number that points could be assigned to. You get so many points for being a season ticket holder (I think it's 50), so there's a benefit there of getting a season ticket. I think it'd be easy to do.

 

This is the bigger issue for me. 3 of us had ST during covid season but only 2 were reserved+ or whatever they were called, simply because my son didn't want a shirt that season. Think it was 50 points for reserved plus which means a) will be a lot of people who never go away with more points than those who do but weren't reserved+ ST holders and b) has made getting away tkts for us a lot more tricky as me and daughter usually in a different category to him. Not sure how but could do with resolving somehow
