Yes — custom audience export endpoint with segment filter.

RFM is marketing segments; trust score is fraud/COD risk per phone — both exist.

What is RFM segmentation for ecommerce customers?

RFM (Recency, Frequency, Monetary) groups buyers into VIP, loyal, at-risk, new, and lost — so marketing and exports target the right phones, not one blast list.

Clothing operators with 500+ repeat buyers cannot treat every phone the same. RFM segmentation turns order history into segments you can WhatsApp, coupon, or upload to Meta custom audiences.

What is RFM?

Direct answer

RFM scores customers by how recently they ordered (R), how often (F), and how much they spent (M) — then labels them (e.g. VIP vs at-risk) for retention campaigns.

Direct answer

vip, loyal, at_risk, new, and lost — recalculated nightly on CustomerProfile. Admin exports CSV or Meta custom audiences filtered by segment.

vip — high spend + recent
loyal — repeat buyers
at_risk — was active, slipping
new — first orders
lost — long inactive
