Looking to enhance your loyalty program or bring non-members into a fully integrated system? Tada is here to simplify that process with robust loyalty solutions tailored to your specific needs.

With a range of data migration methods, Tada ensures your loyalty program continues to run smoothly, all while keeping your data secure.

Tada’s Data Migration Methods

When a brand chooses Tada’s SaaS, On-premise or Private Cloud solution for their loyalty program, at some point, especially for a brand that previously has their own loyalty program, data migration is needed to consolidate to our platform.

When migrating data to Tada, brands will structure their data according to predefined templates. While Tada provides standard templates for ease, we also offer customization options to meet unique brand requirements; though these may involve additional development costs.

Tada offers three versatile methods to ensure a smooth and secure data migration process, regardless of your current setup; whether SaaS, On-Premise, or Private Cloud.

1. API Streaming (for On-Premise and Private Cloud

Tada offers an API that connects directly to our database, making data migration easy and reducing the need for manual data exports. Brands just need to create a function to call the API and send the agreed data to Tada’s database. We handle the rest, ensuring the data is properly formatted to fit our system.

2. SFTP/S3 Upload (for SaaS, On-Premise and Private Cloud)

For brands that prefer a more traditional approach, Tada sets up a Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) for brands to upload their data in Excel files. Before uploading, brands need to export their data and prepare an SFTP server for the transfer. 

We provide a standard Excel template with all necessary fields for easy migration. If needed, brands can request a customized template to better match their data, though this may involve additional development costs.

3. Bulk File Upload (CSV) via Dashboard (for SaaS, On-Premise and Private Cloud)

For those handling large volumes of data, our dashboard makes bulk uploads a breeze. This method doesn’t require SFTP setup and is as straightforward as it gets. While templates aren’t customizable, you can map your data manually to ensure a smooth migration.

Regardless of the method you choose, Tada is here to assist every step of the way. We offer support in translating and mapping your data into our system. Plus, we conduct a testing phase with a small portion of your data to ensure everything is correctly displayed before proceeding with the full migration.

Tada’s Data Sharing Methods

Beyond migration, Tada also excels in data sharing, particularly when brands need to consolidate data from various partners or vendors into a single, unified dashboard. Recognizing the strategic value of data, Tada enables brands to pull data for in-depth analytics, providing predefined reports as part of our services.

These, however, may also incur additional development charges. This comprehensive approach ensures that brands can leverage their data effectively, driving better decision-making and enhanced customer engagement.

Brands can reconcile transactions from Tada with their organization's other systems' transaction records. Brands with data warehouse capabilities can leverage this service from Tada to enrich their data with loyalty transactions. This solution is compatible with SaaS, On-Premise, and Private Cloud environments. Commonly used data from Tada include:

  1. Member List: Showcase the list of all members along with their membership details
  2. Transaction List: Detailed list of all transactions sent to Tada with its converted points amount and all transaction types recorded in Tada, such as registration, earning, burning, rewards, etc.
  3. Orders & Redemptions: Display the list of all redemptions from members into the available redemption item set on the catalog.
