Germany's Loyalty Programs Market Projected to Reach US$8.98 Billion by 2028 with Integration of Web3 and NFTs Driving Innovation

DUBLIN, March 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Germany Loyalty Programs Market Intelligence and Future Growth Dynamics Databook - 50+ KPIs on Loyalty Programs Trends by End-Use Sectors, Operational KPIs, Retail Product Dynamics, and Consumer Demographics - Q1 2024 Update" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The loyalty market in Germany is expected to grow by 10.5% on an annual basis to reach US$6.36 billion in 2024. In value terms, the loyalty market in Germany has recorded a CAGR of 11.7% during 2019-2023 and will continue to grow, recording a CAGR of 9% during 2024-2028. The German loyalty market will increase from US$5.76 billion in 2023 to reach US$8.98 billion by 2028.

Innovation is fast-growing in the German loyalty program and the trend is projected to continue over the medium term. Businesses are seeking to integrate loyalty programs with Web3 to boost member experience and engagement in Germany. Retailers are also revamping their programs in Germany, a trend which has been a widespread momentum across the European region.

Furthermore, German retailers are also launching loyalty programs in other regional markets, amid the growing popularity among shoppers. Regional players are expected to launch their loyalty schemes over the medium term.

Firms are looking to integrate loyalty programs and NFTs to create innovative experiences for members

Many leading corporations have integrated NFTs (non-fungible tokens) and loyalty over the last two years. The trend is also picking up pace in the German market, with businesses seeking to leverage NFTs and loyalty programs to drive innovative experiences for customers.

Lufthansa, the German airline carrier, entered into a strategic partnership with Polygon in September 2023. As part of the collaboration, the airline aims to launch an NFT-powered loyalty program, which will gamify the flight experience for flyers. Notably, the airline carrier will enable flyers to collect NFTs, which can be utilized for rewards like accumulating miles and accessing the lounge. Lufthansa has partnered with Polygon Blockchain for its speed and low fees.

From the short to medium-term perspective, the publisher expects more firms in the German market to power their loyalty programs using NFTs and other Web3 applications. This will drive innovation in the sector, which is expected to grow at a steady pace over the next three to four years.

Retailers are changing their loyalty schemes to meet ever-evolving consumer demands in Germany

Amid the ever-evolving consumer demands, retailers are also making significant changes to loyalty schemes across Europe, and similar trends are seen in the German loyalty program market too.

Lidl, one of the leading supermarket chains in Germany, announced significant changes to its loyalty program in 2023. The budget supermarket, for instance, has included free bakery items and a 10% off incentive. Members of the loyalty programs are now entitled to a free in-store bakery coupon when their spending reaches £50 in a month. Furthermore, consumers spending £250 in a month will receive 10% off on their next purchase. The changes have been made keeping in mind the rising food inflation in the German market.

Going forward, more retailers including supermarkets are expected to change their loyalty schemes to better meet consumer demands. This will drive the competitive landscape in the sector, thereby supporting the growth of the industry over the next three to four years.

German firms are launching loyalty programs in other regional European markets to boost engagement

The demand for loyalty programs is growing rapidly among consumers across European markets. To tap into the growing demand, German firms are launching new and innovative schemes in regional markets.

Aldi, for instance, launched an emoji brand loyalty program dedicated to sport and exercise. The loyalty program has been launched across all of its 440 stores in Belgium. Since the launch, the emoji brand collection campaign has been a success among shoppers. The firm is hoping to achieve a similar result with its new campaign in the Belgium market. With this program, Aldi Belgium is targeting to build higher engagement with sports enthusiasts.

The expects the firm to launch more such innovative loyalty schemes for shoppers in 2024. This will support the growth of the loyalty programs industry over the short to medium-term perspective.
