Why Christmas and gamification are a winning combination for brands
Christmas is one of the few times of year when shoppers are actively looking for value.
In our latest shopper research, 1 in 3 consumers told us Christmas is the time of year they’d most like to receive coupons and rewards. At the same time, 77% said they’re more likely to play a game or enter a prize draw when they know a reward is waiting for them.
Together, those insights point to a significant opportunity for brands this festive season.
Spin to save: gamification and coupons now trump loyalty in grocery shopping
Product recalls are an unavoidable and expensive reality for FMCG brands and retailers. When a product recall occurs, speed and control are critical. Consumer trust, regulatory exposure, and brand reputation can be impacted within hours. Traditionally, managing a recall at the till is a clunky, manual process that relies on “hoping” the right batch is identified. But in an era where shoppers are already on edge about their spending, a mishandled recall is more than just a logistical headache; it’s a direct threat to brand loyalty.
