RXMethodology
A transparent method for a context-dependent choice
Reward Cards X does not publish provider rankings. The method helps a Shopify team define its own criteria, request attributable evidence, normalize cost, and record program fit.
Hold the scenario constant
Every option should address the same eligible purchase, recipient, campaign objective, timing, markets, order changes, expected scale, support standard, and measurement plan.
Separate fact, claim, assumption, and judgment
Evidence-backed facts should remain distinct from provider claims, merchant assumptions, and stakeholder preferences. This prevents a polished presentation from being scored as implementation proof.
Make weighting visible
A weighted score reflects priorities, not universal truth. Record who approved the criteria, why the weights fit the program, how gaps are treated, and which requirements are gates rather than scored preferences.
