Issue loyalty promotion to customers

Direct issue promotions, also known as LOYALTY promotions in the backend, are a type of promotion where a specific promotion is initially issued to customers based on their behavioural events or transactions. Subsequently, upon meeting the criteria defined in the promotion during their next transaction, the benefits are provided.

This API allows you to issue promotions directly to the customers (the customer earns the promotion).
