How do I choose the right structure for my loyalty program?

Always start by choosing one main loyalty program – something long-term that works for every visit and is interesting for most customers. Good choices are Points or Cashback, because they let you reward all customers every time they come. Then, add an onboarding reward – a gift for new members when they join your loyalty club. The first step is always the hardest, so a special welcome bonus helps a lot. Finally, make your program fun and playful! Add gamification elements like: Stamp collection Rewards for spending a certain amount Surprise wins Birthday gifts This mix keeps customers engaged and happy to come back.
