Lealdade[3] marketing is a strategic approach used by businesses to foster and maintain a solid relationship with their customers. This concept has evolved over time, from the use of simple trading stamps and tokens to more sophisticated consumidor[4] rewards programs. These programs incentivize customers to stay loyal to a brand[5] or company, often by offering special deals or points that can be redeemed for rewards. The effectiveness of loyalty marketing can be seen in consumer behavior, with many customers maintaining long-term relationships with brands and often making around five purchases before considering themselves loyal. Implementing these strategies can increase customer[1] lifetime value, improve retention rates, and enhance a brand’s reputação[2]. However, it also presents challenges such as managing customer expectations, maintaining interest, and balancing short-term profits with long-term loyalty.

Marketing de fidelização é um marketing strategy in which a company focuses on growing and retaining existing customers through incentives. Branding, product marketing, and loyalty marketing all form part of the customer proposition – the subjective assessment by the customer of whether to purchase a brand or not based on the integrated combination of the value they receive from each of these marketing disciplines.

The discipline of customer loyalty marketing has been around for many years, but expansions from it merely being a model for conducting business to becoming a vehicle for marketing and advertising have made it omnipresent in consumer marketing organizations since the mid- to late-1990s. Some of the newer loyalty marketing industry insiders, such as Fred Reichheld, have claimed a strong link between customer loyalty marketing and customer referral. In recent years, a new marketing discipline called "customer advocacy marketing" has been combined with or replaced by "customer loyalty marketing." To the general public, many airline miles programs, hotel frequent guest programs, and credit card incentive programs are the most visible customer loyalty marketing programs.
