Differentiated Rewards

Originally the exclusive domain of airlines, ‘Status Programs’ are now common place in other sectors

Flat Tieredvs.

‘Status Tiers’ are an effective way of introducing ‘Soft benefits’ for premium customers, whilst at the same time

creating ‘aspirational drivers’ for lower-tier customers

“A three-tier program (e.g. Gold, Silver, and no-status) is more satisfying to all involved than a two-tier program (Gold and no-

status), even to those who do not qualify for elite status”Dreze and Nunes (2009)

Reward Timing: Immediate vs. Delayed

“With a scheme based on rewards-on-demand you may get an increase in behavioural-loyalty but it won’t go any further;

there’s no opportunity to extend emotional loyalty.”

Scoring Points: How Tesco Continues to Win Customer Loyalty (Clive Humby)

“delayed rewards in a loyalty program have a significant impact on customer loyalty, whereas one-shot promotional features do not”

Leenheer and Bijmolt (2008)

“delayed rewards work better than immediate rewards only if customers are satisfied with their experience”

Hu et al. (2010)
