Self-serve Deal Partner kiosk

Put your better offer in front of ready buyers.

Deal Partner campaigns are separate from Product Signal scores. Merchants need a verified Reviewboard account with an active member subscription, then fund campaigns with a minimum $500 starting budget.

Open campaign kiosk See Product Signal

1. Member account

Start verified.

Use a normal Reviewboard account first. Email verification and an active member subscription are required before campaign setup.

2. Build campaign

Choose the offer setup.

Set product targets, regions, discount type, delivery mode, budget, daily cap, and optional auto-renew intent.

3. Fund it

$500 minimum.

Checkout funds the campaign. Reviewboard activates the campaign after Stripe confirms payment.

4. Stay separate

No score buying.

Partner offers do not change Product Signal ratings, owner sentiment, recall analysis, or public review output.

Account gate.

Log in with the user-facing account that owns the Deal Partner campaign. If the account is not verified and subscribed, the kiosk will stop before campaign funding.

Campaign readiness

Reviewboard checks these before a Deal Partner campaign can be funded or activated.

Login requiredUse the user-facing account that owns the merchant subscription and campaigns.

Current requirement

Deal Partner access requires verified email, current membership access, and a paid Reviewboard account. Monthly and annual memberships both qualify. The public score and review remain independent.

Deal Partner profile

Keep the business identity attached to this account current. This is required for Reviewboard review, campaign support, correction routing, and redemption dispute triage.

Campaign builder.

Set up the campaign exactly how the offer should appear when a member is checking a matching product. Funding creates a Stripe checkout session; successful payment activates the campaign.

Minimum start

$500

Required opening campaign budget before activation.

Reviewboard offer rate

$3.00

Current self-serve rate per qualified member offer view. Reviewboard sets this rate; campaigns buy offer eligibility, not score influence.

Funding cost

Provider rate

Stripe currently lists standard US online cards at 2.9% + 30 cents, ACH Direct Debit at 0.8% with a $5 cap, and Instant Bank Payments at 2.6% + 30 cents where available.

Auto-renew

Optional

Store the renewal intent so funded campaigns can be replenished instead of stopping cold.

Start with a $500 budget at $3.00 per member offer view. Estimated member offer views: 166.

Funding starts as campaign balance. Payment-provider processing costs are separate and shown before checkout by the processor.

Member offer preview will appear here as you fill out the campaign.

Checkout readiness

Campaign setup flow

Build it like a checkout checklist.

Confirm the business profile and paid member account are ready.
Choose the offer mode: online, in-store, or both.
Target products by barcode, SKU, VIN product id, product id, or careful keywords.
Set budget, caps, dates, inventory, offer wording, and redemption instructions.
Preview matches, run preflight, then fund the campaign when the checklist is clean.

Member-facing rule

Offers stay member-only.

Public shoppers see Product Signal ratings, safety data, owner sentiment, and review summaries. Paid members see eligible offers only when product identity, region, inventory, budget, and campaign rules match.

Funding a campaign never changes Reviewboard opinion, score, recall/safety analysis, owner sentiment, or public review text.

Step 2Offer economics

The campaign balance funds qualified member offer views. The current offer rate comes from Reviewboard preflight and is confirmed again by the server before checkout.

Step 3Targets and preview

Target by barcode, SKU, product id, VIN product id, or careful keywords. Leave blank for a broad campaign, but broad campaigns are more likely to require review.

Step 4Member offer details

This is what makes the offer usable: the headline, redemption path, and instructions. If the campaign is online, provide a URL or online instructions. If it is in-store, provide register or QR instructions.

Offer headline Redemption URL ETA label

Redemption instructions In-store instructions

Step 5Funding permissions Allow Reviewboard to attempt stored-payment top-ups when the funded balance runs low.

Required acknowledgements I understand campaign funding buys eligibility for member offers only and does not influence Product Signal ratings, owner sentiment, recall/safety data, or public review text. I confirm the offer, redemption instructions, inventory limits, and regional rules are accurate and can be honored by the business. I understand the starting budget, current Reviewboard per-offer rate, and payment-provider checkout cost before funding this campaign. If auto-renew is enabled, I authorize Reviewboard to attempt stored-payment top-ups when campaign balance runs low.

Campaigns start paused. Stripe payment confirmation changes the funding status to funded and activates eligible campaigns. Reviewboard may hold, reject, or suspend abusive, misleading, unsafe, or unverifiable campaigns.

Redeem a partner coupon.

Use this for merchant-side validation when a customer presents a Reviewboard coupon token or register payload. Only coupons attached to campaigns owned by the logged-in Deal Partner account can be redeemed here.

What stays separate.

Product Signal scoring is not pay-to-play.
Public ratings, safety summaries, sentiment, and review text remain useful for shoppers whether or not a merchant campaign exists.
Deal Partner campaigns can only appear as member offers when product identity, region, inventory, budget, and campaign rules match.
Campaign funding buys eligibility for member offer placement, not a better review.
