About Us
LoyaltyLion is a data-driven loyalty and engagement platform trusted by thousands of ecommerce brands worldwide. Merchants use LoyaltyLion when they want a loyalty program that is proven to increase customer engagement, retention and spend. Stores using LoyaltyLion typically generate at least $15 for every $1 they spend on the platform.
Today, LoyaltyLion works with over 10,000 small and medium sized retailers. Our mission is to help them succeed in the age of Amazon, where they may not be able to compete on price and logistics but can offer a better customer experience. An experience where customers feel valued, rather than just another number.
It’s been an incredible few years for LoyaltyLion. We closed funding of $12.5m in 2021 and another $12m in 2022. We’ve built out our Leadership team, amongst other key senior hires and we continue to set our sights high, achieving spots in both the Deloitte Fast 50 and the FT1000.
Oh, and did we mention our recent successes, such as our G2 reviews, where we are the no.1 in loyalty management in the world or where we've been voted No. 8 in the Best UK Software 2024 list...
Partnerships is a key part of our Go To Market motion. Since our inception, we have invested in Partnerships and to date, it’s how we’ve acquired some of our more notable clients, launched wide reaching co-marketing initiatives and built deep technical integrations with other market leaders.
Over the past few months we've restructured Partnerships and increased our investment. In particular, we’ve made our Chief Product Officer the owner of our technical integrations to ensure we build the Best in Class and added the role of Senior Manager, Partnerships.
Adding another Partnerships Executive signals our increased investment in the revenue generation side of Partnerships, which is traditionally via agencies. There are over 1,000 agencies worldwide, and to date, we have built relationships with fewer than 100 of them, so the growth potential is significant. By the end of 2026, we expect Partnerships to deliver at least 25% of our new business revenue.
