White Label Loyalty Blog

China has emerged from its lockdown slumber and into a stabilisation phase, inching back to normality one week at a time; China's experience can give us a glimpse into the future how shoppers will react once the curtain slowly starts to lift.

That being said, China is a very different place to the UK's in many ways. For example, can you imagine the UK government releasing an app that assigns us covid health codes that dictate whether we can go to work, enter cafes or shopping malls? Look at the resistance to the NHS contact tracing app here in the UK!

Yet more evidence that large companies are still getting it wrong! A new global study showed that diners want more personalised rewards and generally find the loyalty offers not relevant to them. Hotel & Restaurant customers said personalisation based on their stated preferences would be far more appealing.

Loyalty Apps give consumers easier access to rewards, in fact a recent study showed 52% of millennials want to use their mobile devices to take advantage of loyalty programmes offered by restaurants, bars and coffee shops etc, rather than their loyalty cards, which get lost and forgotten frequently.

Some of you may know that Tesco recently made cuts to it’s Clubcard rewards, causing quite a controversy!

Customers, some who had saved their loyalty vouchers for as long as 23 years (when the programme was first introduced in 1995) were not happy and didn’t hold back on expressing their outrage.

A recent study showed that a large proportion of consumers (94% to be exact) would use a mobile wallet more often if they could earn loyalty points with each transaction.

The point of Loyalty programmes is to drive market share and although retail executives recognise the importance of customer loyalty programmes in this process, few have taken in depth action.

White Label Loyalty is now being implemented worldwide for Hospitality/Leisure, Food & Drink & Retail industries. Providing not only tailored digital loyalty, but also a powerful engagement & retention engine that has been tested and proven to increase customer retention by 15% or more.
