The benefits of running an Invoice Registration promo
Brands used to run invoice registration promos to reward and thank consumers for purchasing, giving them an incentive at the final step of their purchase decision to buy a designated product. Now, with a digital invoice registration promo, you can get even more benefits:
Reach consumers across your retail channels
Get purchase details from every e-invoice
Verify purchase data in real time
Give instant purchase rewards
Feversocial offers a complete Invoice Registration module that you can set up quickly and launch, and pairing it with a prize-matching game (like a scratch card or poke-and-win) adds extra excitement to encourage repeat purchases.
Supported proof-of-purchase types
Feversocial's Invoice Registration promos support multiple types of proof of purchase — you're free to choose which type(s) your promo requires, such as "e-invoices (including mobile carrier)," traditional paper invoices, or general receipts.
E-invoice: printed on thermal paper or stored directly on a mobile carrier — currently the most common invoice type at chain retailers
Traditional invoice: the older, narrow strip-style paper invoice with a printed stamp area; hand-written duplicate invoices from merchants also fall into this category
General receipt: proof of purchase with no invoice number, simply confirming a purchase, hand-written by small grocery stores and eateries that aren't required to issue invoices
E-invoice and cloud-carrier invoice details are uploaded to the Ministry of Finance's database within 48 hours, so organizers can cross-check, look up, or download the details from the dashboard.
※ For e-invoices, you'll need to confirm with your partner retailer the time window in which their POS system uploads to the Ministry of Finance — the system can only cross-check and verify an invoice after the POS system has uploaded that invoice's information.
E-invoice
E-invoice details are uploaded to the Ministry of Finance within 48 hours of issuance — as long as the invoice data exists on the Ministry of Finance's E-Invoice Integration Service Platform, it can be cross-checked and verified. Currently supported verification fields are: item, amount, date, retail channel, and buyer restrictions.
Upload method 1: camera scan
Use your mobile device's camera to scan the paper invoice, and it will automatically fill in the fields for you — no typing needed. The invoice number is automatically checked for duplicates
Upload method 2: manual entry
Enter the invoice number (automatically checked for duplicates), date, and random code
Upload method 3: mobile carrier entry
Enter the invoice number (automatically checked for duplicates), purchase date, mobile barcode, and verification code
*Feversocial currently only supports mobile carriers issued by the Ministry of Finance — if a consumer uses a retail channel's member carrier, it must be linked to a Ministry of Finance carrier, and registration must use the mobile carrier
Traditional invoice
Enter the invoice number (automatically checked for duplicates), purchase date, and upload an image
Since traditional invoice data isn't uploaded to the Ministry of Finance's system, the system can't help verify it. So when the traditional invoice field is enabled, besides the invoice number and date, the system requires an invoice photo upload field. Invoice photos can be viewed in the review dashboard, so staff can manually judge whether an entry qualifies for registration.
General receipt
Enter the receipt number (this field is not checked for duplicates), purchase date, and upload an image
Some retail channels aren't required to issue standard invoices and use receipts as proof of purchase instead. This type of proof of purchase also isn't uploaded to the Ministry of Finance's system, so the system can't help verify it. So when the receipt field is enabled, besides the receipt number and date, the system requires an invoice photo upload field. Invoice photos can be viewed in the review dashboard, so staff can manually judge whether an entry qualifies for registration.
