Loyalty Is Shifting from “Rewards” to Revenue Growth Platforms...that changes everything

For years, B2B loyalty programmes were often viewed as “nice-to-have” marketing initiatives. They sat alongside campaigns, promotions, and seasonal incentives, useful for engagement, but rarely considered commercially critical. That perception is changing rapidly.

In this second blog of our new series, we celebrate an icon of the British retail environment – John Lewis.
