Is it permissible to accumulate points when purchasing to receive a reward?

Question

Peace be upon you. When shopping at a store, the seller asks for my number, and each time I make a purchase, points are added as reward points that have a monetary value. I can deduct these points when buying an item of clothing, for example, which reduces the price. Is there any issue with this type of transaction?

Answer 1

It is permissible to accumulate points as long as the transaction does not involve any prohibited elements.

However, it is important to ensure that the points system does not lead to any form of deception or unfair advantage.
