Further, a literature review has been conducted and has resulted in an amalgamated conceptual framework, which is used to illustrate how the notion of loyalty, loyalty cards and its accompanying promotional benefits, and demographic variables are related. The empirical data has been collected by distributing questionnaires to members of a loyalty scheme at a grocery retail store in the south of Sweden. Results showed that a large proportion of the impact on satisfaction of the loyalty card was found to be derived from the loyalty cards promotional benefits. The loyalty card was also found to explain changes in both attitudinal and behavioral loyalty.
However, promotional benefits provided a limited explanation of loyalty. Demographic variables are not found to have any direct relation with loyalty, however, linkages to promotional benefits and the loyalty card were found. (Less)
