Use Case #2

How Broadway’s sole loyalty program reached $1 billion in ticket sales

“Over the last 15 years, members have spent an average of about 20% more per ticket than the typical non-member ticket buyer.” – K. Dalton (VP at Audience Rewards)

Broadway’s only loyalty program, Audience Rewards, marks its 15th anniversary this month and sells $1 billion in tickets. Tickets can be purchased through the Audience Rewards website, earning ShowPoints, which can be used towards more tickets, Broadway merchandise, and other experiences.

Use Case #3

90% adopt cost-saving behaviors: PwC Consumer Insights Survey

As costs of living continue to rise worldwide, consumers have drastically changed their spending habits, with a majority (53% of consumers worldwide) holding back on non-essential purchases.

This proves a challenge for retailers as they must offer competitive pricing to incentivize customers properly. Beyond that, brands need to start creating a purchase experience that is both enticing on a price level and in terms of loyalty, providing ad-hoc benefits to the occasion.

Use Case #5
