Claude Rewards Customer Feedback Emails With Smile.io Points

5 min setup

No coding required

Runs automatically

Asking customers for feedback works better when there's a reward, but reading every reply and adding points by hand doesn't scale. This workflow watches a feedback inbox, has Claude read each email and decide whether it's genuine, useful feedback about a product or order, and adds Smile.io loyalty points to that customer's account when it is. Short or spammy replies are skipped, so points go to the people who actually took the time.

How it works

5 steps to reward real customer feedback with Smile.io points, checked by Claude

App connector: Email • Time to complete: 1 minute

Run each time an email arrives at the MESA email address you share with customers for feedback, for example in a post-purchase email that offers points for replies. The trigger provides the sender's email address, the subject, and the body.

App connector: Claude • Time to complete: 1 minute

Send Claude the email subject and body. Ask it to reply with only QUALIFIES or SKIP: QUALIFIES when the email gives specific feedback about a product, the order, or the shopping experience in at least two sentences, and SKIP for one-line replies, spam, unsubscribe requests, or support questions that need a person.

App connector: Filter • Time to complete: 1 minute

Continue only if Claude's reply is QUALIFIES.

App connector: Smile.io • Time to complete: 1 minute

Look up the Smile.io customer whose email matches the sender's address. Stop if no customer is found.

App connector: Smile.io • Time to complete: 1 minute

Add a fixed number of bonus points, for example 100, to the customer's Smile.io account, with an internal note such as "Feedback reward" so it shows clearly in their points history.

FAQs

Can one customer earn points over and over by sending more emails?

As built, every qualifying email earns points. To limit it, add a step that tags the customer in Shopify after a reward and a Filter that skips customers who already have the tag.

What happens to support questions sent to the feedback address?

Claude marks them SKIP, so no points are added. Add a second path that forwards SKIP emails to your support inbox if you want nothing to be missed.

What if the sender isn't a Smile.io member?

The Smile.io lookup finds no customer and the workflow stops for that email. Customers become members when they create an account or earn points in your Smile.io program.

Personalize this template

Customize this workflow even further:

Give more points for detailed feedback

Ask Claude to return SMALL or LARGE instead of QUALIFIES, and add a path for each so detailed feedback with suggestions earns more points.

Thank the customer by email

Add a Send Email step at the end so the customer hears that their feedback was read and how many points they earned.
