If you are migrating from Smile, choose the Smile format. Alternatively, select the Nector format for standard imports.

An extra Expiry field specifies how many days the points are valid (e.g., 7 days, 14 days, 1 day).

After updating your CSV, save it and upload it in the portal.



Step 10 - Review CSV Preview


Once uploaded, the system displays a preview of the first 50 entries showing:

• Email

(This limit applies even if your file contains more records.)
