There is a growing interest in loyalty and rewards programs among internet users across European markets. While some countries such as the United Kingdom and Germany have greater adoption of loyalty programs, markets such as France are also showing strong adoption among internet users. According to the Q1 2022 Loyalty and Rewards Market Survey, nearly 30.5% of the internet users make use of loyalty programs in France.
While France is not the front-runner in the loyalty and rewards programs industry in the European market yet, it has shown significant growth momentum over the last three to four years. Brands across industries are developing and launching innovative loyalty and rewards programs to drive further growth in their respective businesses. From quick-service restaurants to supermarkets and airline carriers, businesses have increasingly adopted the loyalty program strategy to attract more consumers to their products and services.
Loyalty programs and customer experience with brands are correlated. As consumers seek more personalized loyalty and rewards programs, brands are expected to use emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning to predict consumer behavior through advanced algorithms. Notably, the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning in loyalty programs can enhance the consumer experience while also influencing their purchasing pattern.
In addition to this, brands are also expected to use artificial intelligence for monitoring loyalty point accounts and to keep a check on fraudulence. Notably, these benefits offered by artificial intelligence and machine learning are expected to drive market growth from the short to medium-term perspective.
Moreover, by offering a personalized experience for consumers, brands can increase customer loyalty, sales, and online traffic. Consequently, the publisher expects brands to adopt and launch personalized loyalty programs, which will further drive the overall market growth over the next four to six quarters.
