Скачать или смотреть Gen Z Is Rewriting Restaurant Loyalty (Here’s the New Rulebook)

Gen Z is redefining what loyalty means for restaurants—and traditional loyalty programs are no longer enough.

For this generation, loyalty isn’t about collecting points, plastic cards, or endless discounts. It’s about experiences, relevance, values, and seamless digital engagement. If your restaurant loyalty strategy hasn’t evolved, Gen Z guests are already tuning out.

In this short video, we break down how Gen Z thinks about loyalty, why legacy programs fail, and what modern restaurants must do to build repeat business with the fastest-growing consumer segment.

Why Traditional Restaurant Loyalty Programs Don’t Work for Gen Z

Most loyalty programs were built for older generations:

• Visit 10 times, get a free item
• Generic offers sent to everyone
• No personalization, no story, no value alignment

Gen Z expects more.

They grew up with:
• Personalization powered by data
• Brand transparency and authenticity
• Instant gratification and mobile-first experiences

If your loyalty program feels transactional, it feels outdated.

What Gen Z Actually Wants From Restaurant Loyalty

Successful Gen Z loyalty programs are built on connection, not coupons.

Gen Z values:
• Personalized offers based on behavior
• Digital-first journeys (mobile ordering, webstores, QR)
• Experiential rewards instead of generic discounts
• Social currency—shareable, community-driven moments
• Brand values they can identify with

Loyalty today is emotional before it’s economic.

The New Gen Z Loyalty Playbook for Restaurants

Modern restaurant brands winning Gen Z focus on:

✅ First-party customer relationships
✅ Owned channels (webstore, CRM, direct messaging)
✅ Smart targeting instead of mass promotions
✅ Data-driven insights, not guesswork
✅ Seamless integrations across ordering, loyalty, and engagement

This is how loyalty compounds over time—without burning margin.
