At the beginning of 2018 the retail chain stores Cranes addressed Loymax company with a task not just to implement the loyalty program, and to create a unique product for work with buyers and a possibility of effective assessment of daily obtained data, with the subsequent their use for sales increase.

The choice of Zhuravli company stopped on Loymax on the basis of a number of factors.

As one more criterion existence of ready mobile application from Loymax which assembly and customization takes no more than two weeks served and does not require the essential investments. At the same time mobile application gives the chance to partially reduce costs of the company on the plastic card issue and to reduce costs for communications with buyers and partners.

"For 2018 we collected the customer base in 150 thousand., at the same time a share of active buyers - 100 thousand. If to consider that the population of Bryansk makes 500 thousand people, then 20% of the population of the city use our loyalty program. For the city of such size it is the excellent indicator reached less than for a year of a program runtime of loyalty. One of advantages of the Loymax platform is the effective mechanism of control of share value and the preconfigured dashborda of KPI of the loyalty program using which the owner can simply and visually see business indicators at any time. Our company received a qualitative product and good support on behalf of the partner of Loymax". Oleg Derbushev, technical director of Zhuravli network
