February 14, 2024

Antavo Loyalty Cloud sweeps in a variety of recognitions at the Bonus Awards. Not only did the renowned loyalty technology vendor secure second place as “Supplier of the Year” in the “Expert Awards”, but two of the programs they empower for their customers, Bergzeit and Lillydoo, won second and third place respectively within the Lifestyle category of the German Customer Awards.

Antavo earned not one, but five accolades at the Bonus Awards. First and foremost, the company secured the Silver Award as “Supplier of the Year” in the “Expert Awards” category, which is meant to recognize outstanding vendors in the loyalty market. Furthermore, two of Antavo’s prominent customers, Bergzeit and Lillydoo, claimed Silver and Bronze Awards respectively in two Lifestyle categories (Program of the Year and Best Promotion to Collect Points) at the Customer Awards in Germany.

The Bonus Awards provide a platform for customers and experts to express their views and acknowledge the accomplishments of an industry that has been delighting customers for years. The Bonus Awards reached over 115,000 customers voting; last year, there were only 45,000 participants.

“The Bonus Awards offer companies from different industries the opportunity to gain valuable exposure and recognition within the world of loyalty. Winning multiple awards allows us to showcase our dedication to excellence, receive feedback from our customers, and build connections with influential stakeholders within the industry. The Bonus Awards create an inspiring platform where best practices and innovative approaches can be shared.” Attila Kecsmar, CEO and Co-founder of Antavo

The Bonus Awards are either voted by the public (Customer Awards) or by a jury of experts (Expert Awards). 

The Expert Awards is staged as an international competition in Germany, Austria, Belgium and the Netherlands, with the winners being decided by a panel of loyalty experts.
