How to use Beeline points? Review of the “Happy Time” bonus program

Those who want to minimize the cost of mobile communications will definitely be interested in the Beeline “Happy Time” bonus program. With its help you can:

• Save up to 15% on payments for outgoing calls and SMS messages.
• Pay for additional services from the company.
• Order mobile internet data packages.

How to connect to the Beeline bonus program?

To activate a program that allows you to accumulate points on your mobile device account, several methods are used. You can call the customer support center at 0674-777 , with which you can confirm your intention to participate in this program.

You can also activate the program by executing the command *767#<call button> . The result of typing the USSD code will be a notification that the user is participating in the “Happy Time” bonus accumulation program. Connections are free.

Points will be awarded depending on the amount of funds deposited into the user's account, the time from which participation in the program was activated, as well as the costs of various services used, offered by the operator.

Bonuses can be accumulated in the amount of up to 15% (the maximum percentage is received by users who use Beeline services for a long time). Information on the number of accumulated bonuses is updated based on the results of each deposit of funds into the client’s account.

Any Beeline user can take part in the program for accumulating bonus points, regardless of the tariff applied. The same condition applies both to subscribers under the prepaid tariff system and to subscribers who have chosen a postpaid tariff.

How is the reward calculated?

The longer the relationship between the subscriber and , the greater the percentage will be used to calculate bonus points. The minimum reward is 5%. This rate applies to subscribers who have been using a SIM card from a black and yellow operator for less than six months (from the date of purchase and registration of the SIM card). For those who entered into an agreement one to two years ago, the rate is twice as high – 10%. The maximum allowed rate is 15%. It is used when calculating bonuses for customers who have been using communication services for more than three years. The Happy Time program (Beeline) implies the following scheme for receiving bonuses:

• For a prepaid payment system, points are awarded for all actions performed from the number (the percentage is determined by the duration of the contractual relationship with the operator). Moreover, if funds are consistently received on the balance, but paid transactions are not performed, then bonuses are not accrued.
• For a postpaid payment system, bonuses are also awarded for all actions that the client performs every month (they are calculated at the beginning of each month for the previous period, at the time the invoice is issued).

How are bonus points awarded?

As a consequence of the fact that the client has confirmed his participation in the savings program, bonus points will be received (up to 15% of the amount) for expenses for each service used. The specific amount and terms of accruals are posted on the official Beeline portal. Receiving bonus points depends on the amount of all costs incurred by the client for using the services of the mobile operator, which are recorded by the subscriber’s mobile number.

The percentage applied by the bonus program, in turn, depends on the period of time that passed between the activation of the number and the date the points were awarded.

The table below clearly reflects the dependence of the amount of points received on the “age” of the number at which these points are accumulated: the higher it is, the higher the number of bonuses that can be exchanged for various useful services.

Transferring part of the balance to another subscriber

As mentioned earlier, Happy Time points can be transferred from a Beeline number to another number. The minimum amount you can transfer is 10 points. A daily limit is set at 3,000 bonuses (that’s how many points can be transferred within one day). The lifespan of points received from another subscriber is thirty days. Therefore, you should think about how to spend it in advance. “Happy Time” (“Beeline”) provides bonuses for a limited period of time.

When are points awarded?

After the user activates his participation in the points accumulation program, an additional account is opened for him in which points will be accumulated. These points can later be redeemed for the use of various services (discussed below).

The bonus account balance is updated automatically. The basis for this action is the deposit of funds into the subscriber’s account. Accordingly, the user does not do anything independently; all necessary calculations and charges will be performed by the operator.

What's available today

Currently the operator does not have a loyalty program for regular users, but there are personal offers. Thus, the user can receive various gifts and offers from the mobile operator simply by using his number.

To find out about your personal offer, you need to dial number 444 and receive it in a special SMS in response. Personal offers depend on how actively the subscriber uses communication services. Thus, they may provide the opportunity to switch to an exclusive tariff, or offer to receive a bonus if you spend a certain amount on services.

Personal offers are also available in the “My Beeline” application, however, there are mainly offers from the operator’s partners - discounts and promotional codes for receiving goods at a special price or at a discount. Depending on the tariff, a discount may be offered when switching to a new one.

Additionally, the operator holds various promotions for its subscribers, which allow them to receive both discounts on the purchase of new gadgets and on the use of communication services.

So, you can buy a set-top box at a discount in the operator’s showrooms. Additionally, the operator will offer a subscription to a package of TV channels for a whole year at a special price

Separately, we note the possibility of obtaining premium status. It is available automatically to everyone who has been with Beeline for more than a year, and over the past year has spent at least 1.2 thousand rubles on communications per month. Premium status gives priority when calling the operator's helpline, free calls in your home region on your birthday, free delivery of a new SIM card worldwide, and the opportunity to receive a “World” category bank card with free service.

How to check and manage an additional account?

Before spending the bonus points you receive for participating in the program, you need to find out how many of them have accumulated in a special account.

For this purpose, Beeline has developed a certain sequence of actions that can provide assistance. To do this, use one of the following methods:

• Complete registration in your Personal Account on the operator’s portal (or log in if an account already exists). Here you can find information not only about the user’s main account, but also see the status of the bonus account;

• Request a USSD code , which will be completely identical to the activation code for participation in the program, i.e. *767#<call button>. As a result, the operator will automatically notify the client about the number of accumulated points;
• There are also some common commands, such as *102#<call button> and *106#<call button> . If you fulfill their request, then among other information (for example, about connected services on this number ), the amount of loyalty points will be indicated.

Beeline users can check the status of the account on which bonuses are saved without any costs.

Discount amount according to the program

The essence of the proposal is simple: the more a person spends on communication, the more profitable the communication becomes. It all depends on the duration of cooperation between the provider and the subscriber. The information layout is available on the official Beeline website:

If the user does not know the exact period of cooperation with the Beeline operator, then information can be obtained in his personal account. The “Contract” section specifies the term of the contract.

What can you buy with bonus points?

Of course, many users are primarily interested in the question: how can they use loyalty points? Beeline offers to exchange bonus points for additional services, which will be a pleasant reward for loyalty to the company and the use of paid services.

So, additional operator services for which you can exchange loyalty points:

1. On-network non-charged communication minutes (15, 30, 60 minutes of conversation available).
2. SMS and MMS to Russian numbers (30, 50, 100 messages).
3. Online traffic for use on the Internet (up to 100 megabytes).

Accumulations are subject to automatic write-off in cases where the volume of services included in the user’s tariff plan runs out. If the client wants to spend bonuses on something else, it is necessary to use special commands that are worth considering further.

Disabling the service

There is no special command provided to disable a subscription to the program. Deactivation is carried out through virtual services or with the help of a technical support employee. You can conveniently manage your subscriptions and tariff plan in your web account or application. Algorithm of actions:

1. On the main page you need to select the “Tariffs and Services” section.
2. Find the active program.
3. Deactivate it in one click by moving the carriage to the left.

The offer is profitable because subscribers can save on their communications and the service does not have a subscription fee. Therefore, many subscribers who did not manage to activate “Happy Time” hope that it will become available again.

What other services can I spend the accrued bonuses on?

So, the client does not feel the need for additional messages, Internet traffic or conversation minutes, but, nevertheless, participates in the program, and a certain number of bonuses have accumulated on his account. Is it possible to use them somehow? The operator offers additional services for which you can exchange your points.

For those users who frequently travel abroad and use communications while roaming, Beeline offers “100 SMS in international roaming.” For this service, 295 points will be debited from the client’s bonus account.

To use this option, you need to call 0674-04-59 (there is no charge for the call).

Created for conversations with subscribers outside the home region.

Connection will cost the user 55 bonus points. To complete it, you need to make a call to the number - 0674-04-55. Connecting to this service will allow you not to pay a subscription fee for 30 days.

There is also the “My Country” option, which allows you to communicate with all regions of the Russian Federation at a general tariff for incoming and outgoing calls of 3 rubles/min. conversation without having to pay any subscription fee.

You can connect to it for a period of 30 days using accumulated loyalty points by calling the number - 0674-04-57 from a mobile device. The activation cost will be 25 bonus points.

For those who often spend time on the Internet, for whom there is not a lot of online traffic, accumulated bonuses can also be a good help, because they can be used to purchase additional gigabytes of traffic.

Purchasing through the bonus program is possible in two ways:

• An increase in high-speed traffic by 1 gigabyte can be obtained with 100 loyalty points. To use the opportunity, you need to call the number - 0674-04-65;
• to get 3 gigabytes of traffic, you need to exchange 200 accumulated points. The service can be activated by calling 0674-04-65.

The services considered are not an exhaustive list of what you can exchange bonus program points for. For example, for written off points you can get a discount on equipment, but this only works in special operator offices, and the discount size is limited to 10%.

Bonuses can also be spent on replenishing the balance of someone close to you, which allows you not to urgently look for a terminal, but to calmly use your own mobile device. We will look at how to do this further.

Additional features

How to transfer bonuses to another phone number?

Such an action is indeed possible, but there are also restrictions: the transfer can only be performed between subscribers participating in the bonus accumulation program. For this purpose, a USSD code is used, which is similar to those discussed earlier for activating the program, but with some changes.

The command will look like – *767#<number to which the transfer is being made>*<transfer amount>. After executing the command, a request will be received with all the data for the transfer, which needs to be confirmed.

Transfer of bonuses to another client

Bonus points for the program in question from Beeline can be transferred to other network subscribers. To do this, dial the request * 767 # “recipient number without eight” “number of bonuses” on the phone keyboard and press call. Then you will receive a notification in the form of SMS, which you need to confirm in a response message.

This operation has its limitations:

• the smallest transfer amount is 10 points;
• the largest total amount of all transfers is no more than 3 thousand points during the day;
• The validity period of transferred bonuses is one month.

The “Happy Time” loyalty program is a convenient and useful service from Beeline, with which you can accumulate and spend bonuses on various communication services, which is beneficial for the subscriber.

What else should you know about the program bonuses?

In addition to the above information, it is worth mentioning some features of participation in the Beeline loyalty program. The transfer can be made from 10 accumulated points. The upper limit is also set at 3000 points/day. Transferred bonuses must be used within 30 days, otherwise they will simply expire.

It is possible to apply a discount on the purchase of equipment only in Russia and only at certain company offices. The list and their location are posted on the operator’s portal.

Bonus points are only valid for 30 days after they were awarded. The maximum number of bonuses that can be accumulated is 10,000 points.

Features from Beeline

To secure user loyalty in a less than favorable economic situation, Beeline provides the opportunity to save using the Happy Time program.

The program is available for use by the company's clients who are on a postpaid tariff system. It allows you to get a discount for a bill for communication services (Internet, subscription fees, calls) due at the end of the month, using points accumulated within the loyalty program.

For the discount to become active, you need to make a USSD request *805#<call button> before the operator issues a monthly invoice for payment. The discount will apply to a future invoice.

The size of the discount depends on the period that has passed since the activation of the number, and completely repeats the table for calculating bonus points given above. This means that if a client uses a number for up to 6 months, he can count on a 5% discount, while using a number for more than 3 years will allow him to receive a 15% discount.

Unfortunately, “Happy Time” is an archived service, and from August 1, 2021, new Beeline subscribers will not be able to connect to it (details here).
