Now in their 8th year, the Loyalty360 Awards are the most coveted awards in customer loyalty. With an emphasis on objectivity, the Loyalty360 Awards recognize brands that are building lasting and profitable relationships with customers.

The Loyalty360 Awards are open to brands of any industry and brands from around the world! Any brand with a customer loyalty strategy, initiative, or program is eligible to enter. The Loyalty360 Awards are unique in that there is a two-part judging process, with the final winners selected by attendees at the 2021 Loyalty Expo in Charlotte, NC. 

After the finalists are named in September 2021 for each category, finalists will give a short presentation of their entry to conference attendees. Following the presentations, Platinum, Gold, Silver, and Bronze winners will be announced during an awards ceremony. All finalists will be recognized during the ceremony and will receive a trophy to take home. 

All submissions must be through our online entry portal, but please see below for additional information on how to submit, key dates, the Loyalty360 Awards judging process, and more.
