Why Points and Rewards Engine matters in 2026
Acquisition costs have risen for the seventh consecutive year while attention spans collapse. Points and Rewards Engine is the only durable lever that compounds over time — every transaction, every visit and every interaction adds to a first-party data graph that competitors cannot replicate. Brands running modern loyalty programmes on Fundle deliver 3–5× higher campaign ROI than batch-and-blast peers.
