From the official readme · v1.0.0Description

Frequently asked questions
Does this work with any WooCommerce theme?

Can I use this for goals other than Free Shipping?
Absolutely. You can change the “Reward Name” text to anything you want, such as “Free Delivery,” “Discount Unlocked,” or “VIP Status.”
