I need to build a shopping app on powerapps. For every shopping, users can earn points or get a coin. The accumulated points can be redeemed later with a voucher. May i know how to achieve this on powerapps? Any example would be much helpful.

    That’s a great use case—and very achievable with Microsoft Power Apps 

    You’re essentially building a loyalty / rewards system on top of a shopping app.

    Core Idea
    Users earn points/coins when they shop
    Points are stored and accumulated
    Users can redeem points for vouchers

    Build:
    • Users + Orders + Rewards + Redemptions tables
    On purchase:
    • Calculate → store → update points
    On redeem:
    • Validate → deduct → store redemption
    App Screens
    • Home → points/coins summary
    • Shopping → place order
    • Rewards → redeem vouchers
    • History → transactions

    Track every transaction and update points dynamically
    Keep data structured and scalable
    Add automation later for notifications and vouchers

    Not sure its as simple as you said becuase its an e-commerce idea. We are sure there are reason you have considered it to be in PowerApps. Out of curiosity,  will this app be pulbic-front with massive users? Are these users in M365? 
     
    If you consider PowerPlatform env, you can have an option to design power page based application. And yes, as @11manish mentioned - it would be a shopping plus loyalty/rewrd system - the use cases are huge -would suggest have BRD (business requirement document) first to freeze the scope you want becuase the ecosystem will need/require Apps, backend, admin porats to manage.
     
    To me, the prodcut you want to bring in the shops - has a good  manageablity work behind.
