# Enable users to extract value (burn)

## Overview

Enabling users to extract value — often called **burn** — is a core part of loyalty integrations. In WLL, this usually means letting end users convert their points into real-world value.

There are three approaches:

1. [Getting & redeeming rewards](/developer/guides/enable-users-to-extract-value-burn/getting-and-redeeming-rewards.md)
2. [Reporting events to deduct points](/developer/guides/enable-users-to-extract-value-burn/reporting-events-to-deduct-points.md)
3. [Cash payouts](/developer/guides/enable-users-to-extract-value-burn/cash-payouts.md)
