In a February 13, 2026 article, the company argues that recurring-purchase brands should make the value of participation clear and the process easy to use. In the client example it describes, shoppers uploaded receipts for participating food products through a rewards platform. Reaching a purchase threshold triggered a grocery store gift card. Arrowhead reports the program as a successful example of making the reward and qualifying action easy to understand. ## Matching loyalty design to buying frequency The company identifies regularly purchased consumer products and repeat B2B orders as possible fits. Its examples include encouraging a food customer to buy related products and rewarding an auto-parts buyer for ordering a wider range. The article discusses points programs, subscriptions and programs built around a shared value or charitable contribution. It also notes that businesses selling infrequently purchased products may have different retention needs, while regulated categories require appropriate program oversight. ## Participation and program economics Arrowhead recommends a low participation threshold or an initial joining reward. The website or app should make enrollment and earning understandable, while the reward level must also be affordable for the sponsoring brand. To frame the customer context, the article cites [Deloitte](https://giftcard.news/company/deloitte/) findings that 72% of consumers say they are more likely to spend more with brands connected to a loyalty program. It also cites a 2025 [Rakuten](https://giftcard.news/company/rakuten/) and Harris Poll study in which 55% of shoppers said they would look for the lowest price. These reported preferences underpin Arrowhead’s emphasis on a clear reward proposition and a straightforward purchase-validation process. ## Sources and documents ExpandCollapse * [How to win the brand loyalty game in 2026](https://arrowheadpromotion.com/building-brand-loyalty-in-2026/?utm%5Fsource=giftcard.news) — arrowheadpromotion.com ## In this article ### Companies * [Arrowhead Promotion](https://giftcard.news/company/arrowhead-promotion/) * [Deloitte](https://giftcard.news/company/deloitte/) * [Rakuten](https://giftcard.news/company/rakuten/) Share [ ](https://x.com/intent/post?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgiftcard.news%2Frewards-loyalty%2Farrowhead-promotion-loyalty-programs-with-gift-card-rewards-for-customer-973457c77f65%2F%3Futm%5Fsource%3Dx%26utm%5Fmedium%3Dsocial&text=Arrowhead%20Promotion%20Links%20Receipt-Based%20Gift%20Card%20Rewards%20With%20Brand%20Loyalty "X") [ ](https://www.linkedin.com/sharing/share-offsite/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgiftcard.news%2Frewards-loyalty%2Farrowhead-promotion-loyalty-programs-with-gift-card-rewards-for-customer-973457c77f65%2F%3Futm%5Fsource%3Dlinkedin%26utm%5Fmedium%3Dsocial "LinkedIn") [ ](https://wa.me/?text=Arrowhead%20Promotion%20Links%20Receipt-Based%20Gift%20Card%20Rewards%20With%20Brand%20Loyalty%20https%3A%2F%2Fgiftcard.news%2Frewards-loyalty%2Farrowhead-promotion-loyalty-programs-with-gift-card-rewards-for-customer-973457c77f65%2F%3Futm%5Fsource%3Dwhatsapp%26utm%5Fmedium%3Dsocial "WhatsApp") ![Portrait of Daniel Brooks](https://giftcard.news/images/variants/v1/daniel-brooks-editorial-portrait-w320.webp) About the author ## [Daniel Brooks](https://giftcard.news/author/daniel-brooks/) Journalist — Payments, Security & PCI DSS Daniel Brooks covers payment networks, financial technology, payment security, gift card fraud and PCI DSS for Gift Card News.
