Bonus Types Settings

Overview

The Bonus Types Settings allow you to create and manage bonus types used throughout your site. Bonus types are completely customizable, letting you define exactly which bonus categories work for your market and audience.

Access: Theme Settings → Bonus Types Tab

Why This Matters: Different markets use different bonus terminology. This flexible system lets you adapt the theme to your specific needs instead of being locked into predefined categories.
