Loyalty tiers

Loyalty programs help brands increase customer loyalty and provide incentives for customers to continue to interact with brands. Loyalty tiers exist within loyalty programs to incentivize customers to interact more with a brand. For example, a loyalty program may provide customers incentives to buy more products to move up to the next loyalty tier.

Amperity provides the following attributes to build audiences that help brands better understand how to bring more value to their customers through their loyalty program:

Loyalty tier attributes

Tier-based loyalty programs provide different types of incentives to customers based on the tier to which they currently belong. Brands often use tiers to give their customers a goal: belonging to a higher tier means customers will receive more exclusive offers and better rewards. In return, brands are able to focus more of their marketing activity on high-value customers and on encouraging customers who are in lower tiers to move up into higher tiers.

These loyalty programs also retain information about which channels or by what method their members signed up. Brands can use this information to determine how their customers best interact with their brand. For example, whether customers sign up more frequently through the brand’s website or through an online social platform (Facebook).

Amperity provides the following attributes that your brand can use to build audiences around loyalty tiers within your loyalty programs:
