Rewarding customers for creating an account is one of the simplest and most effective ways to encourage sign-ups and kick off user engagement. This campaign is ideal for driving account registrations, reducing bounce rates, and starting the customer journey on a high note.

## Campaign Trigger

The customer creates an account on your platform.

This template uses the standard reward campaign setup. See the [Generic Setup Guide](/product-documentation/rewards-campaigns/start-from-scratch/setup-reward-campaign) for details.

## How It Works for Customers

<Steps>
  <Step title="Visit">
    A customer visits your platform.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create Account">
    When they **successfully create an account**, Gameball automatically **triggers the reward**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Receive Reward">
    The customer receives the reward immediately (points, discount, badge -- based on your setup).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Notification">
    The customer will be **notified** via the widget or email with the reward as per your configuration.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Important Notes

<Note>
  **New Customers Only**

  Only customers who sign up *after* the campaign is active will be rewarded.
</Note>

<Note>
  **Old Customers**

  You can manually reward customers who signed up before by going to the **Customers tab -> Reward a Campaign -> Account Created**.
</Note>

<Note>
  **Bulk Migration**

  Importing customers while the campaign is active won't trigger rewards.
</Note>

<Warning>
  **\[Shopify] New Account Creation Method**

  Customers registering this way are marked as **"Member"** and will receive the reward.

  **\[Shopify] Guest Checkout**

  Customers who check out as guests (Legacy method on Shopify) are labeled **"Guests"** and will **not** earn the reward, even if guest rewards are enabled.

  **\[Shopify] Guest to Member**

  If a guest later registers with the same email, their status will be converted to **"Member,"** and they will receive the signup reward.
