About

Reelie, formerly Artisan Tropic, is a family-founded food & beverage brand rooted in Colombia and based in the US. They sell crispy, crunchy snacks made from tropical ingredients like plantain and cassava through their Shopify store and retail partners nationwide. Real People + Real Food = Reelie Good. The company has created over 340 rural Colombian jobs while supporting clean water, housing, and education.

The Challenge

Turning first-time Shopify buyers into repeat customers

Reelie needed loyalty infrastructure to bring first-time buyers back and increase repeat purchase rates. As a food & beverage brand selling through Shopify and retail, customer retention was critical — but the loyalty apps they evaluated offered impersonal onboarding and hands-off support. Reelie wanted a Shopify loyalty app with real partnership behind it.

I looked into so many different integrations for loyalty and referrals for our Shopify Store, but no one impressed me more than Mage on human connection, customer service, and value.

The Solution

A complete Shopify loyalty program built for omnichannel growth

Reelie worked with Mage's founders and their agency to build a Shopify loyalty program that covers online purchases, in-store receipt scanning, social engagement, and referrals. The goal: increase customer lifetime value by rewarding every interaction. Reelie launched with points earning, VIP tiers, fixed-discount rewards, a refer-a-friend program, and a fully branded loyalty landing page.

  • Points for every interaction: Customers earn 1 point per $1 spent, plus bonus points for following Reelie on Instagram and on their birthday.
  • AI-powered receipt scanner: Customers upload a receipt photo. Mage's AI verifies the purchase and flags fraud.
  • Tiered fixed-discount rewards: $10 off orders above $50, $20 off above $75, $30 off above $100. Bigger orders, bigger rewards.
  • VIP Tiers: Bronze, Silver, and Gold tiers. Silver members unlock a free Chip Variety Pack for 25 points. Gold members redeem $50 off an order for 25 points.
  • Refer a friend: Both the advocate and their friend get 20% discount codes.
  • Fully branded loyalty landing page: Reelie built a custom loyalty page with Mage's flexible page blocks, theme customisation, and custom CSS. The page matches the rest of the site.
Featured Integration

Earning loyalty points wherever Reelie is sold — online and in-store

Reelie's products are stocked across a variety of retailers beyond their Shopify store. With Mage's AI receipt scanning, customers upload a receipt photo from any retailer and submit it for loyalty points. The scanner verifies the purchase and checks for fraud automatically. The Reelie team reviews and approves submissions in seconds. This omnichannel approach means customers engage with the Shopify loyalty program at every store that stocks Reelie — not just online.
