2. Literature review and hypotheses development 

The American Marketing Association (2016) defines LPs, as “continuity incentive programs offered by a retailer to reward customers and encourage repeat business” (Dorotic, Bijmolt, & Verhoef, 2012, p. 218). Recent research (e.g., Dorotic et al., 2012) also emphasizes the importance of an integrated and structured reward system, which is continuously customizable to members' needs and the development of customer loyalty. LP rewards can provide short- or long-term benefits to customers who have reached a certain status through the frequency or volume of their buying patterns (Fullerton, 2003). Companies tend to offer rewards for many reasons, such as to increase retention and profitability, to develop closer bonds between the customer and the brand, to create resilience to alternative options for the customer and to simply reward customers for their loyalty with additional benefits (De Wulf, Odekerken-Schroder, & Iacobucci, 2001; Fullerton, 2003). According to the literature, customers can gain three categories of benefits from LPs: utilitarian, hedonic, and symbolic benefits (Dorotic et al., 2012). Utilitarian benefits refer to the monetary savings that an LP offers to consumers, such as discounts, points, and vouchers. Hedonic benefits represent the entertainment and exploration benefits that an LP provides to consumers through the pleasure of redeeming and collecting points. Such rewards include trial of new products, information of new trends, events participation or promotional offers, and unique experiences (Mimouni-Chaabane & Volle, 2010). Finally, symbolic benefits are recognition and social benefits that an LP provides to consumers, such as social status, sense of belongingness, special treatment, social approval, and recognition by the firm (Dorotic et al., 2012; Mimouni-Chaabane & Volle, 2010). Utilitarian benefits are primarily cognitive and represent “hard” dimensions of rewards (e.g., coupons and discounts) because they are economic in nature (Dorotic et al., 2012). Previous research suggests that consumers perceive these benefits as the most important (Dorotic et al., 2012; Mimouni-Chaabane & Volle, 2010). The underlying reason for such perceptions is these benefits' tangible nature, which consumers can more easily evaluate than hedonic or symbolic benefits (Dorotic et al., 2012). This argument seems relevant to low-end retailers, whose monetary savings is one of the major drivers for customers to patronize their stores. However, reliance on utilitarian benefits makes customers vulnerable targets by competing LPs that can afford to offer better monetary rewards. Indeed, previous research (e.g., Leenheer et al., 2007; Meyer-Waarden & Benavent, 2009) shows that consumers are motivated to purchase from a store because of the point-system pressure, but such pressure works only in the short run and usually in the beginning of enrollment (approximately six months). If LPs do not contain any other types of benefits, monetary-based LPs fail to maintain long-term relationships with customers, and customers can easily switch to competitive offerings (Brashear-Alejandro, Kang, & Groza, 2016; Henderson, Beck, & Palmatier, 2011). Thus, reliance on such rewards alone does not guarantee the establishment of long-term relationships (Dorotic et al., 2012). Hedonic and symbolic benefits represent psychological benefits and reflect the “soft” dimensions of rewards (e.g., special events, privileged treatment, entertainment and upgrades) because of their non-monetary nature (Dorotic et al., 2012). These types of benefits are important in building long-term relationships with customers (Mimouni-Chaabane & Volle, 2010). Such rewards can make customers feel appreciated and valued. Thus, companies that aim to develop long-term relationships and lasting customer loyalty need to carefully consider the provision of hedonic and symbolic bene- fits in the design of their LPs.
