Points-multiplier architecture (3x/5x/10x) replaces flat coupons. 500% perceived value at ~7% actual cost.

Evidence

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you replace coupons without losing members?

DEFACTO replaced coupons with points multipliers (3x/5x/10x with hard caps). Members perceived 500% more value while actual cost dropped to 7%. The repurchase rate of 85.95% proves members prefer this model.

How quickly can we transition from coupon-based to points-based?

DEFACTO transitioned over 12 weeks. Phase 1 (4 weeks): parallel run with both systems. Phase 2: gradual coupon sunset with points-multiplier ramp. Full transition by week 12 with zero member churn.

Does this work for online-only or omnichannel apparel?

DEFACTO operates across online and offline with 20M+ members. The points-multiplier architecture works across all channels. Identity resolution ensures a member's in-store behavior informs online offers and vice versa.
