Preserve the cost model: a monthly subscription plus a success fee on the referred new customer's first three orders (10.5% on Basic down to 0.25% on Enterprise), with merchant-funded rewards and commissions on top, and payout methods listed as PayPal, Tremendous or self-managed. State the limitations: REx never activates, pauses or stops campaigns itself; loyalty is Shopify-only; the newest free-product friend offer is Shopify affiliate campaigns only; FlexiTiers physical or custom rewards are tracked but fulfilled by the merchant and API automation needs the merchant's own development work; a 100% product discount does not include free shipping or waived taxes.
