Benefits of a Cloud-Based Loyalty Software System
For over a decade, loyalty cards have been an extensive part of
customer loyalty programs. However, advances in technology have eliminated the
need to depend on physical cards altogether and given way to loyalty management
systems that are entirely based on the cloud. In contrast to traditional
loyalty software programs that are usually hosted on a device, all data and
operations in new-age loyalty systems take place on a secure server.
Let’s take a look at a few benefits of loyalty solutions that are cloud-based:
Hardware
Independence
A
virtual loyalty software system eliminates the dependence on fixed hardware
devices. As a matter of fact, several Cloud-Based Loyalty Software solutions
offer multi-device access and allow easy set-up. This helps businesses of all
types and sizes to implement customer loyalty program conveniently and
eliminates the reliance on expensive hardware and issuing magnetic loyalty
cards.
Data
Back-up and Security
Since
all the customer information and data is securely stored on the cloud, data
security and back-up is no longer dependent on the device in use.
In the case of device malfunction, all data can be securely accessed
and business operations continue without a glitch. Furthermore, whenever
devices and systems are upgraded, transferring the software and customer
information is an instant and seamless process.
Smooth
Customer Experience
Loyalty
solutions that are based on the cloud allow customers to access and view their
account information anytime, anywhere. Customers can view their transaction
history and also make changes to their account from a device of their choice.
Furthermore, intelligent loyalty systems also help in targeted promotions and
marketing based on customer choices and history, thus, facilitating a smooth
customer experience.
Real-Time
Notifications
A Cloud-Based
Loyalty Software system provides real-time notifications to both the
business and the customer. For the former, it can instantly collate customer
information like sign-ups, points earned and redeemed, number of transactions
etc.; and for the latter, the system can send instant notifications on
purchases, points earned, successful redemption, eligibility of offers, changes
to profile etc. What’s more, these notifications can be sent through multiple
channels – like email, SMS, and in-app notifications – simultaneously.
