Case study
Restaurant Co

A national restaurant chain struggled to measure the impact of its recently-launched loyalty program and considered defunding the initiative. Pyxis overlaid credit card transaction data with internal loyalty data in a clean room, revealing a $100M revenue uplift and $5M profit gain – proving the program’s value.

The Challenge

A national restaurant chain developed and launched a loyalty program with the objectives of (1) driving incremental traffic and check size, (2) improving first-party customer data, and (3) strengthening brand affinity and retention.

Despite investing significantly in the program within its first year, they were unable to quantify the program’s financial success, making the program one of several candidates for cost-cutting measures.

How Pyxis Helped

Loyalty
Analysis
Used third-party credit card transaction data to measure incremental uplift of spend and visit frequency for loyalty members by enrollment cohort (e.g., pre- and post-joining, early vs. late joiners)
Insight
Customers showed increased overall spending after joining the program. Later joiners of the loyalty program showed greater incrementality vs. spend baseline, accentuating the need to focus on increased enrollment into program
