As a new client that is launching Bank Loyalty, you will define your Bank Loyalty Matrix and define the Tiers that help determine the rewards.

The Bank Loyalty Roll Out Template is used to aid with the rollout of the program.

There are three parts of Bank Loyalty that are critical to an effective and successful launch and they are as follows:

​Step 1: Identify which menu items to include in Bank Loyalty for guests to redeem rewards.

These metrics will provide a clear view of the most profitable menu items that your business has to offer. They will also reveal items that could benefit from promotion or items that the guest finds enticing.

The following are examples of menu items that could be offered as a promotional item (for a generic burger restaurant):

Step 2: Next, you will determine how the customer’s spend will be converted into points for the loyalty program. It is recommended to utilize an easy-to-understand dollar-to-points conversion practice. A few simple examples are:

Based on the conversion rate that is chosen and how the points are distributed, your determined conversion rate will play a large role in how the redemption of rewards will occur and allow you to determine point totals for each menu item that will be included in Bank Loyalty.

Step 3: Finally, there needs to be a decision on how many points the menu items will cost in the loyalty program. The Lunchbox Team will be available to assist with this process as needed; communicate with your Onboarding Lead contact for any help required.

The following is an example of how this process could occur:

The establishment of your rewards tiers is critical in defining the new lifetime points thresholds that guests will have to achieve to build their loyalty.

NOTE: Defining tiers is an optional step in this process, as they are not needed for launching or transitioning to Bank Based Loyalty.

Tiers are defined by the lifetime revenue generated per member. We recommend these values and categories be determined by an analysis of revenue, the popularity of items, the percentage of all menu item purchases, and so on.

Example of Tiers:

The Lunchbox Team will provide services to design your design interface for the Rewards section; this process can generally be completed within 4 weeks.

For existing clients, old Credit Loyalty or old Tier Loyalty is a different pool of points than those for Bank Loyalty. Due to this, there may be the need to define how the points work from scratch; the alternative is to create a conversion to transform the points from Credit or Tier Loyalty to Bank Loyalty.

The Lunchbox team will use email communications to inform the Guest(s) on important events that happen from three weeks out until the day of launch for the program.
