Scratch. Bills. Buckaroos. Smackers. Dough. Green.
No matter what you call it, there’s just something about cold hard cash.
People have more appreciation for items they purchased with cash rather than credit, according to psychologists. Hollywood loves to show suitcases full of benjamins or handfuls of dollars raining down in slow motion. And what school kid doesn’t dream of catching a leprechaun and claiming its pot of gold?
The allure of cash is strong.
And the same holds true in the world of member benefits and customer rewards. There’s just something about cash back rewards that brings customers back again and again.

Did you see the recent statistics predicting a huge resurgence in travel this year? They’re pretty surprising, and yet not surprising at all.
Recent studies are showing that 80% of U.S. consumers planned to take at least one overnight domestic leisure trip in 2021, with just over one-third of respondents planning at least three domestic trips this year.
Hardly surprising, indeed – given that 72% of Americans didn’t take a summer vacation because of COVID-19 concerns. For a third of Americans, that included putting off a milestone trip such as an anniversary or graduation celebration.
At Access Development, our data is telling the same story. In the past month, we’ve had record setting hotel and travel bookings, many for the second half of the year. It’s clear people are planning ahead in anticipation of the lessening of restrictions that will come as more and more people are vaccinated against COVID-19.

Love at first sight can happen.
Just ask Hollywood.
Or if you want scientific proof, this study shows it takes about 1/5 of a second for the brain to make all the numerous judgments it takes to fall in love.
And for even more evidence, ask my husband. He loves to remind me just how quickly he fell in love with me, especially on a certain holiday in February... or when he's in trouble.
But it’s definitely rare. Not just for love between two individuals, but also between individuals and the businesses they frequent.

A customer is someone who buys something. A member is someone who belongs to something.
Every business should aim to have members, even those without a formal membership structure. Members, in this sense, are customers who have developed a deeper, ongoing relationship with a product or brand.
These relationships don’t happen by accident. Some brands can develop deep cult followings, but not all of us can be Apple or Starbucks.
We can however, borrow specific tactics from membership groups designed to build engagement and long-term loyalty.
Start small. Try any of these 20 member engagement ideas used by some of the largest membership organizations in the world.

It’s a new year, a new opportunity to set goals and succeed in any aspect of life one chooses to focus on.
The intention of a New Year’s resolution is to establish life-long changes that will improve the person’s life in some way. Whether you like to set official New Year’s resolutions or not, goal-setting has proven an effective strategy for increasing productivity and focusing efforts in the right direction.
And the effects are even more pronounced when it comes to businesses and organizations.
Of course there are some resolutions notorious for being dropped after the first few weeks (“get in shape”, I’m looking at you.) So the last thing you want is to set organization goals that get lost in the shuffle, or worse, send you down the wrong path.

(New: Only want the latest data? Check out our most recent year-specific collection of loyalty stats.)
Customer brand loyalty is a rich and complex subject to grasp. If you've found this page, you're probably trying to understand it too.
You may be starting at the beginning, trying to define terms like customer loyalty, customer engagement or member engagement.
Or maybe you want to get to the real heart of the matter: how can I get me some of that?
Companies across the world have studied what makes their constituents tick. Through their varied studies, patterns emerge. The best corporate discount programs, association member benefits, white-label rewards programs, and membership perks in general share traits and strategies. Members of different demographic groupings relay the things they want most from the companies they do business with.
Indeed, we have many articles that dive into these findings on our loyalty blog and employee benefits blog.
This page, however, is for the raw data. For your convenience, we've compiled dozens of loyalty statistics - from how many people are active in loyalty programs to what they're looking to get out of them and how they'd like to be communicated with.
We've tried to make this list as relevant as possible, which means we combed through recent research with a focus on the US (with the occasional global stat thrown in).
These stats are culled from a variety of sources, and we've provided source links for each of them (though some are gateway pages that require you to register or submit your information to receive the actual research).
Sometimes the data conflict with other sources - we'll leave it up to you to decipher which is most accurate.
We'll keep this list updated on a weekly basis with the latest and greatest. If you know of a stat we're missing, or want your own research included in our collection, leave us a note in the comments.
