The Challenge

With a strong omnichannel strategy centered around its mobile app, DEICHMANN aimed to take customer engagement and long-term retention to the next level through a seamless loyalty program. Building on their ongoing and successful collaboration on digital solutions, DEICHMANN and intive are working together to implement loyalty features within the existing app, ensuring a frictionless and rewarding experience for all users.
Our Solution

We integrated DEICHMANN PLUS directly into the app, enhancing both online and in-store shopping. Logged-in users can view exclusive DEICHMANN PLUS prices for all products, with automatic discounts applied at checkout, creating a seamless and transparent journey.

To improve in-store convenience, we introduced a digital customer card with a QR code, fully integrated with the cashier system for instant recognition. Additionally, users can store the card in Google and Apple Wallet for quick and easy access. To further simplify the shopping experience, the program will offer receipt-free returns, eliminating the need for paper receipts.

Beyond these core features, the loyalty section keeps users engaged with personalized promotions, exclusive offers, and shopping inspirations. Looking ahead, we’re rolling out coupon integration, including a birthday coupon, further enhancing the loyalty program.

By streamlining the user experience and enhancing engagement, the program further strengthens DEICHMANN’s 5-star-rated app, complementing features like the filtering tool, wish lists, click-and-collect functionality, and in-app scanner.

For DEICHMANN, this evolution drives higher customer retention, increased app usage, and a stronger market presence. With a successful launch in Austria and Poland, additional markets are set to follow, expanding the program’s impact and reinforcing DEICHMANN’s leadership in omnichannel retail.
