Loyalty Index 2023 Cover

About the research

What do today’s consumers think and feel about loyalty? And what does it take to actually secure their long-term loyalty?

For the third consecutive year, SAP Emarsys sought to answer these questions and more. In August 2023, we asked 10,057 General Respondents across the USA, the UK, Australia, and Germany all about loyalty. We wanted to find out how, from a consumer’s perspective, marketers can earn their continued loyalty in 2023 and beyond.
