Antavo Named in the Forrester Loyalty Technology Solutions Landscape, Q4 2022

December 8, 2022

Antavo Enterprise Loyalty Cloud has been included in the Forrester Loyalty Technology Solutions Landscape, Q4 2022 report. This is a great opportunity for Antavo to strengthen its position as a top loyalty technology provider, offering a best-in-class, no-code loyalty technology for enterprises. 

The Forrester Loyalty Technology Solutions Landscape helps companies understand how the market is evolving, identify potential vendor partners, and highlights market dynamics and top use cases. Being included in the report allows Antavo to show loyalty marketers what value they can expect from its technology, and give insights into its capabilities through use cases that align with the top reasons clients select Antavo’s product.

“Our team is very excited that Antavo is included in The Loyalty Technology Landscape, Q4 2022 and that we’re being recognized by Forrester again. It’s another important milestone for the company, especially after our Series A fundraising round, which we will spend on developing a powerful, world-first SaaS loyalty product that is able to satisfy the increasing customer demand for seamless member experiences.” – Attila Kecsmar, CEO & Co-founder of Antavo

The pandemic changed how customers interact with brands and what they expect from them. And now, as the world faces a looming recession and new customer acquisition remains a challenge, customer retention is becoming a higher priority for businesses than ever before. Antavo’s recently published Global Customer Loyalty Report 2023 revealed that 67.7% of companies want to increase their investment in customer retention and 88.5% of companies trust loyalty programs to help them overcome the inflation crisis.

Nevertheless, companies need more creative and direct ways to engage their customers beyond transactions. They require easy-to-use tools to configure and manage loyalty programs and deliver more personalized offers and campaigns. Antavo understands this, which is why its main focus is to further develop its powerful SaaS loyalty technology solution, which encourages and nurtures lasting brand love by differentiating brands and allowing them to uniquely engage customers based on their lifestyles.. 

This focus will also be supported by Antavo recently having closed its Series A round at €10M. The funding will enable the company to continue reinvesting in its technology for greater omnichannel capabilities and superior integration with more apps and platforms, while expanding its global presence.

Frequently asked questions about Antavo

What can brands build with Antavo?

Brands use Antavo to run the whole loyalty and incentives program on one platform: points, tiers, challenges, streaks, referrals, clubs, and rewards beyond discounts; promotions and incentives for members and non-members alike, from bonus points and promo codes to bundles and cart-level offers; and agentic AI built in. Everything runs online, in store, on mobile, and in wallet, and marketers launch it themselves.

Who uses Antavo?

Antavo works with mid-market and upper-mid-market brands across fashion, retail, beauty, travel, hospitality, restaurants, and sports in North America and Europe: multi-market, omnichannel brands with a strong identity and customers worth keeping, including Paul Smith, KFC, SKIMS, Rip Curl, Benefit Cosmetics, and Hyatt's Inclusive Collection.

How long has Antavo been around?

Antavo was founded in 2012 and has been building loyalty programs for more than a decade, with teams across Europe and North America serving brands worldwide.

Why do brands switch to Antavo?

Most loyalty programs get stuck: reduced to a discount engine, generic to customers, or too rigid to evolve. Antavo removes those compromises. Brands get a program that feels unmistakably their own, loyalty and incentives on one platform, and the depth to handle tiers, expirations, refunds, and many markets at scale. Their own marketers run it: a tier change in an afternoon, live when they press the button.

How does Antavo use AI?

Antavo's agentic AI is built in, not bolted on. Two named agents do the work: the AI Loyalty Expert, which turns your ideas into a build-ready program, and the AI Analyst, which turns your data into clear answers and reports. Both work inside Antavo or connect to Claude and ChatGPT, and every answer is grounded in your own program and data.

What does Antavo integrate with?

Antavo is API-first with real-time webhooks and deep pre-built integrations, from Shopify, Klaviyo, Braze, and Bloomreach to the CRMs, CDPs, ESPs, and POS systems you already use. Antavo plugs into the stack you already run rather than replacing it.
