We couldn’t be happier with our experience using Loyalty Lion so far! We discovered the need to switch loyalty programs in late May when we realized that our current provider was not user-friendly, nor in many cases accurate. Because of this, we decided to do some Loyalty program vetting to decide if we wanted to stay with our original loyalty provider for another year, or if there was a better option out there. We quickly found Loyalty Lion, and our question to learn about them commenced.
From the get-go, their team provided stellar support during the sales process (huge shout-out to James) and our launch, guiding us through every step with patience and expertise. They made what could have been a stressful process feel like a breeze.
(So far) The system has been a dream to operate – intuitive, user-friendly, and powerful. Our team is quickly getting the hang of it, and are excited to utilize customization options that weren’t available to us with our last rewards program.
What truly sets Loyalty Lion apart though, is their willingness to go above and beyond to meet our unique needs. They didn’t just offer us a one-size-fits-all solution; they took the time to understand our specific requirements and were more than willing to explore bespoke options for our site. The biggest shoutout of all goes to Jason for all of the bespoke design work, willingness to listen to feedback, and ability to find creative workarounds that allowed us to seamlessly transition our program over earlier today.
The communication throughout has been top-notch — prompt, clear, and always friendly. They are responsive, proactive, and always ready to assist. It's clear they value their customers and are dedicated to ensuring we succeed.
The system also integrates extremely well with the apps we currently use regularly: Klaviyo, Attentive, & Shopify and the team at LL is always willing to into API integrations for specialty rewards. We are regularly in our loyalty program, assessing tiers, spend, and customer behavior - the LL analytics & insights really excite us, as we didn't have nearly this visibility or ability to look at different segments so easily.
In short, Loyalty Lion has been a game-changer for us. If you're looking for a loyalty program provider that combines stellar support, ease of use, and a genuine commitment to customer satisfaction, look no further.
We’re excited to continue this journey with them and see all the amazing results we can achieve together! Highly recommend!
8-month update: One of my favorite things about the system is how quick & easy it is to set up new rules & rewards, as well as easily see how much each reward has been redeemed, to continue assessing what our customers desire. LL's 'quick look' information allows us to quickly see all the details of our program and makes it relatively easy in most situations to update what we need update. The support team and our success manager are definitely communicative and happy to help wherever they can. The Program Analytics page is one of my favorites, to quickly see/evaluate how often rewards are claimed, what kinds of rewards customers are claiming, and what kinds of activities they are completing.
So far, I cannot think of any downsides or cons - as we continue our relationship with them, we will evaluate their performance & customer service with a live program, and have all the confidence that we will continue to see the type of service that we've seen since the beginning. But we'll update if that changes!
8-month update: at the time, one of the major downfalls we have experienced with LL is that they don't (currently) integrate with our Reviews & Ratings platform, so we are unable to incentivize product/store reviews/ratings the way that we have in the past, or run Loyalty promotions tied to Reviews. LL is exploring this integration for us, but at this time anything that we would want to do between the two programs would have to be manually managed. Additionally, I wish that the 'Customers' page had an option to filter -- it has the option to search by customer ID, name, or email but doesn't allow me to filter my customer results by things like activities, points, rewards, revenue, tier, status, or enrolled at. In order to do that kind of filtering, I have to export ALL of my customers and then work on the results in Excel -- an example for this would be being able to quickly compare monthly signups to evaluate the use of signup promotions -- being able to quickly filter out customers sets based on certain parameters would help not only with targeting, but also with understanding the behavior of our consumers.
