Create loyalty account

The Square-assigned ID of the customer that is associated with the account.

The timestamp when the buyer joined the loyalty program, in RFC 3339 format. This field is used to display the Enrolled On or Member Since date in first-party Square products.

If this field is not set in a CreateLoyaltyAccount request, Square populates it after the buyer's first action on their account (when AccumulateLoyaltyPoints or CreateLoyaltyReward is called). In first-party flows, Square populates the field when the buyer agrees to the terms of service in Square Point of Sale.

This field is typically specified in a CreateLoyaltyAccount request when creating a loyalty account for a buyer who already interacted with their account. For example, you would set this field when migrating accounts from an external system. The timestamp in the request can represent a current or previous date and time, but it cannot be set for the future.

The schedule for when points expire in the loyalty account balance. This field is present only if the account has points that are scheduled to expire.

The total number of points in this field equals the number of points in the balance field.
