Loyalty programmes increase retention and spend. Starbucks rewards members spend 3x more; Tesco Clubcard lifts visit frequency 20-30%. This calculator projects programme net value over years.
300/member annual revenue × 20% retention lift × 5,000 new members × 5 years - 100k/yr programme cost = 1.5M net value. Strong programmes pay back significantly.
Costs to track: rewards redeemed, technology platform, promotional spend, member acquisition. Net value = revenue uplift - all costs. Many programmes look profitable but aren't when fully costed.
Run it with sensible defaults
Using annual revenue per member of 300, retention lift of 20%, new members annual of 5,000, programme annual cost of 100,000, the calculation works out to 1,000,000.00. Nudge the inputs toward your own situation and the output recalculates instantly. The defaults are meant as a starting point, not a recommendation.
The levers in this calculation
The inputs — Annual Revenue per Member, Retention Lift %, New Members Annual, Programme Annual Cost, and Years — do not pull with equal force. Not every input has equal weight. Flip one at a time toward extreme values to feel which ones move the needle most for your situation.
How the math works
Extra per member = revenue × lift %. Annual revenue uplift = extra × new members. Total = annual × years. Net = uplift - total cost. The working is transparent — you can verify every step yourself in the formula section below. No black box, no opaque "proprietary model".
What the score tells you
Headline financial numbers — income, savings, debt — each tell part of the story. This calculation stitches several together into a single read you can track over time. The value is in the direction, not the absolute number.
What this doesn't capture
The score is a composite of the inputs you provide. Life context — job security, family obligations, health, housing — doesn't appear in the math but shapes the real picture. Use the number as a prompt, not a verdict.
£300 £ × 20% × 5,000 × 5 years - £100,000 £ = $1,000,000.00.
