French supermarkets are launching digital loyalty cards to help consumers beat high food inflation

Food inflation has reached multi-year highs across many European nations, and France is no different. Consumers, throughout 2023, have been reeling under the impact of higher inflation and food prices. Consequently, to drive consumer spending, supermarkets have been leveraging loyalty programs.

Netto, the France-based supermarket chain, announced the launch of a digital loyalty card in September 2023. The digital loyalty card provides access to offers and electronic vouchers. The launch is part of the firm’s strategy to lessen the impact of higher food prices faced by consumers.

The strategy has been adopted by many of the leading supermarket chains across the region. Tesco and Sainsbury’s have made changes to their loyalty program to better meet the demands of their consumers. These programs have also resulted in higher sales numbers for firms like Tesco. Nearly, 21 million households have a Tesco Clubcard in the United Kingdom. For Tesco, these 21 million households are responsible for 80% of the sales. Tesco holds a significant 27.4% of the market share. More than 8,000 products are offered under its Clubcard Prices scheme. Sainsbury’s, on the other hand, offers 6,000 products under its loyalty scheme.

Firms are looking to integrate loyalty programs and NFTs to create innovative experiences for members

Many leading corporations have integrated NFTs (non-fungible tokens) and loyalty over the last two years. The trend is also picking up pace in the German market, with businesses seeking to leverage NFTs and loyalty programs to drive innovative experiences for customers.

Lufthansa, the German airline carrier, entered into a strategic partnership with Polygon in September 2023. As part of the collaboration, the airline aims to launch an NFT-powered loyalty program, which will gamify the flight experience for flyers. Notably, the airline carrier will enable flyers to collect NFTs, which can be utilized for rewards like accumulating miles and accessing the lounge. Lufthansa has partnered with Polygon Blockchain for its speed and low fees.

From the short to medium-term perspective, more firms in the German market are expected to power their loyalty programs using NFTs and other Web3 applications. This will drive innovation in the sector, which is expected to grow at a steady pace over the next three to four years.

New loyalty program launches to support industry growth over the medium term in the United Kingdom

Amid higher adoption and the fact that more and more consumers are seeking to leverage loyalty programs to lessen the impact of worsening economic conditions, the number of new program launches has been rising.

JD Sports, the sports retailer, announced the launch of a loyalty app in the United Kingdom in October 2023. The program aims to deliver rewards to shoppers on purchases made across all of its stores in England, Wales, and Scotland. After the nationwide rollout in October 2023, the retailer is now planning to launch the loyalty program in more European nations in 2024.

In the United Kingdom, the trend of new loyalty program launches is projected to continue in 2024. Domino’s, for instance, is planning to launch a loyalty scheme in the United Kingdom in 2024. In the United States, Domino’s has been able to increase the purchase frequency by 1.7 times in the first year of the program launch. The QSR aims to replicate the success in the United Kingdom too. These new loyalty scheme launches will further support the growth of the industry over the short to medium-term perspective.
