Pay with and Send Liven Rewards

Now you have Liven Rewards, use it to pay for meals or gift to friends!

Liven Rewards are Liven's very own Digital Currency and are the fuel that drives the Liven network.

Users receive Liven Rewards whenever they transact with Liven at no extra cost. Even when you use Liven Rewards to pay, you earn them!

Liven Rewards can be:

  1. Gifted to friends

  2. Spent as a payment method

  3. Stored indefinitely for future use

Paying with LVN

Liven Rewards are accepted at all Liven Merchant Partners as a valid payment method. This means that the Liven Rewards you earn for eating burgers in the city can be used for wine on the river. However, Liven Rewards cannot be used to purchase Brandollar vouchers, and only the amount originally paid for Brandollars (excluding bonuses) is eligible for conversion to Liven Rewards.

This also means using Liven Rewards to pay instead of debiting your card. If your Liven Rewards balance is insufficient, a fallback payment method will automatically cover the remaining amount.

To use Liven Rewards to pay:

  1. Open the Liven app and navigate to the Home screen.

  2. Tap the Wallet icon and go to Payment Methods.

  3. Select your card and toggle on the Rewards Balance option.

  4. Choose a fallback payment method to cover any remaining balance if your rewards are insufficient.

  5. Return to the Home screen, open the merchant page, and tap Pay. Your available rewards balance will be displayed in the payment method area.

If the Rewards Balance is on, this means your Liven Rewards balance will be debited before your cards are charged any amount. Additionally, if your rewards balance is insufficient, the fallback payment method you selected will be charged for the remaining amount.

Storing Liven Rewards for Future Use & Sending them to Friends

The Liven Rewards Wallet stores your Liven Rewards by default, and it will sit there indefinitely where it can be sent to friends and soon, be withdrawn from Liven — stay tuned! To check your current spendable rewards balance, open the Wallet section in the Nomni app. The Wallet Balance section shows Brandollars (specific to certain venues) and Liven Rewards (usable across restaurants and stores). Avoid relying on the "Lifetime Rewards" number, as it reflects total historical rewards earned, not the current spendable amount.

Also, remember that your Liven Rewards can be used as a payment method at any Liven Merchant.

Sending Liven Rewards to friends

Liven Rewards can be instantly sent for free to others in the network using their unique Liven @username handle.

This is done from the Liven Rewards Wallet:

  1. Navigate to your in-app Liven Rewards Wallet

  2. Tap Send

  3. Input their username and the amount to send

  4. Tap Send

And you're done! Larger requests may require manual approval which may take a few minutes.
