Supermarket Reward Programs Supermarket reward programs COLES – FLYBUYS https://www.flybuys.com.au/ Collect points when you shop at Coles, Kmart, Target, Coles Express, Liquorland, First Choice, eBay and other partners (listed on website). Look up all of the partners - you may be able to get points at unexpected places. Some credit cards are linked to flybuys which means you get extra points if you use that card for your shopping. Collect bonus points by activating offers on email or app – these quickly boost your points balance! When they have a “spend x every week for four weeks” bonus offer, stock up on your regular pantry, cleaning and household items. If you have a partner or housemate, add them to your account so you are both gaining points. Make sure you plan bigger shops together if you are trying to hit a target amount for bonus points. Or have separate accounts to to gain bonus points offers. Work out which is the best value for your expected spending. Check your dockets for more bonus deals and fuel discounts. If you forget to swipe your card, go back with your receipt within 7 days to have the points added. Use your points to save money off your general shop, save them for a big Christmas shop, transfer to Velocity Frequent Flyer Points, or select items from the flybuys Rewards website. WOOLWORTHS REWARDS https://www.woolworthsrewards.com.au/ Collect points when you shop at Woolworths, Big W, BWS and participating Caltex/Caltex Woolworths service stations. Earn 1 point per dollar spent, 2000 points = $10 off your shopping. You can choose to save $10 when eligible, save the discounts for Christmas, or convert them into Qantas Points. Sign up for email offers with bonus points and discounts. Spend $30 at Woolworths to receive 4c per litre fuel discount at participating Caltex/Caltex Woolworths (offers held on card). TIPS AND TRICKS Take a break! If you don’t shop at a particular supermarket for a couple of weeks, they will send you better bonus deals to entice you back (usually lower minimum spend amount). You could also use your partner’s card if they have a separate flybuys account. If neither of these are an option, you can try shopping without swiping your rewards card. You will lose base points on these purchases, but will receive more bonus offers which give you more points in total. Meet the targeted amount but don’t go over (this will increase the next minimum spend amount). If you need to buy more that week, put the other items through as a separate payment and either don’t swipe your rewards card, or use another adult’s card. Go digital! Add your rewards cards to your phone so you always have it. Don’t get blinded by deals. Buying something you don’t really need just to get more points often costs more than the points are worth. Keep an eye on specials at other supermarkets. You may be able to purchase particular items for much less, even if you don’t get points. Targeted offers are usually sent out between Thursday and Sunday. Combine the offers! You can use some deals at the same time, and some are separate. Read the fine print before you go shopping to get the best points value for your shopping money. Research credit cards. You may be able to gain points by paying your bills and other expenses using a linked card and access other bonus deals or discounts. Weigh up the fees and interest against possible savings when making a decision. .

ABSTRACT Previous research on loyalty programs in Australia has shown the benefits gained by partners in these programs. This paper develops this research and introduces the concept of network development in loyalty programs. It builds on the theory of network development (Hertz and Mattson, 2004) and uses the role of strategic alliances to explain the implications of networks for the success of loyalty programs. The loyalty program utilised in this paper is FlyBuys which is run by Loyalty Pacific, a joint venture formed by National Australia Bank, Shell Australia and the Coles Myer Group. The initiators of Pacific Loyalty recognised the need to increase and improve their individual customer databases. The development, maintenance and usage of a data system that size, requires special skills and a large financial commitment. A sophisticated hardware and software solution is essential in order to track and manage the growing amount of data, transactions and services offered such as statements, service call centre and point collections.

  • Essays on Strategic Interaction Via Consumer Rewards Programs
    Essays on Strategic Interaction via Consumer Rewards Programs Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Ross Arthur Brater, B.A., M.A. Graduate Program in Economics The Ohio State University 2014 Dissertation Committee: Huanxing Yang, Advisor Dan Levin Lixin Ye c Copyright by Ross Arthur Brater 2014 Abstract Consumer rewards programs are seemingly ubiquitous, including airline frequent- flyer and hotel frequent-stay programs, fuel rewards perks, and cash-back credit card offers. Regardless of the setting, a common characteristic of these programs is that eligibility for a firm’s reward imposes a switching cost on the eligible consumer, which tends to dampen competition for reward-eligible consumers. Consequently, consumers rationally exhibit reduced demand elasticity in markets where purchasing a particular product leads to eligibility for a future reward. The following chapters examine the use of rewards programs by firms in different environments. In the first chapter, I study a differentiated-products oligopoly where firms directly compete only with their nearest rivals, and I examine the practice of firms offering loyalty discounts to not only their own repeat customers but also to past customers of an affiliated firm. If rational, forward-looking consumers are uncertain about which firms they will patronize in the future, these types of partnerships between firms enhance the effect that a particular reward has in initially attracting consumers to the partnered firms. In particular, partnerships between firms are most effective when firms who do not normally compete directly decide to partner with one another.

  • 'Woolworths Rewards' Program
    ACRS Review of Woolworths ‘Woolworths Rewards’ program Commissioned by Woolworths Food Group Background Monash Business School’s Australian Consumer, Retail and Services (ACRS) research unit was commissioned by Woolworths Food Group to conduct an independent assessment of data regarding the new ‘Woolworths Rewards (WR)’ program. This program replaces the existing Everyday Rewards scheme and removes, from 1 January 2016, the ability to earn Qantas Frequent Flyer points. Instead, this program uses a deferred discount system applied to selected items throughout Woolworths and BWS stores, and to be redeemed in Woolworths and BWS stores. ACRS was commissioned to review the structure of the Woolworths Rewards program, and estimate its relative benefits compared to the existing Everyday Rewards scheme and the Coles FlyBuys scheme. In particular, ACRS reviewed the following: 1. Whether the Woolworths Rewards program would return more or less value to the average shopper compared to Everyday Rewards. 2. Whether the average shopper is able to earn a $10 reward more or less quickly with the Woolworths Rewards program compared to the Coles FlyBuys scheme. 3. Overall whether the Woolworths Rewards program returns more value to consumers compared to either Everyday Rewards or FlyBuys Methodology A variety of data sources were used to conduct this review. Data regarding the average value per shopping occasion and average occasions per week were based on estimates provided by Woolworths. These figures were then used to calculate the estimated number of loyalty points the average shopper would earn during an average shopping trip. The approximate dollar value of points in each program was calculated using a variety of methods: 1.

  • Getting the Best Value from Flybuys and Everyday Rewards Learn How to Beat the Supermarkets at Their Own Game and Save Hundreds of Dollars on Travel and Groceries!
    Getting the best value from Flybuys and Everyday Rewards Learn how to beat the supermarkets at their own game and save hundreds of dollars on travel and groceries! 5 September 2014 Getting the best value from Flybuys and Everyday Rewards | 2 Executive Summary Do you shop at Woolworths each week, earning Qantas Frequent Flyer points in the hope of one day being able to cash them in for that dream holiday? If so, the chances are that you are continually disappointed and have never come even close to achieving that goal. Right? The reason for this is that the loyalty programs of Woolworths (and Coles) are not really about rewarding loyalty. In fact they reward customers who are disloyal more than they reward those who are loyal! It seems like a paradox, but the more you think about it, the more sense it makes. Those who blindly shop at the same store each week will get very little benefit. The real winner is the supermarket as their loyalty program encourages customers to increase their spend, while giving next to nothing in return. You’re probably thinking “that doesn't seem fair!” And it isn't. But there are strategies anyone can use to take advantage of the system and get real rewards for loyalty – or in this case, the lack of it! This Guide will show you 10 easy-to-follow strategies you can use right now to beat the supermarkets at their own game. Not only will you save hundreds of dollars each year on your grocery bill, but you will also accrue frequent flyer points at a much higher rate than the average shopper.
