Smartico Loyalty Wheel: A Game That Can Be A Game-changer for CRM
CRM is sometimes a game of luck.
Seasoned customer relationship management (CRM) executives would understand this perfectly.
Sometimes you initiate a well-planned and creative-stacked campaign only to find less-than-desired results. Sometimes, you create a quickfire, spur-of-the-hour campaign with available resources to find surprisingly great results.
The intangible reason for such customer behavior is often attributed to luck. That’s why CRM can sometimes become a game of luck.
But gamification could help you win it.
How?
Well, the answer is stuff of a doctoral thesis.
For the time being, take Smartico’s newly launched product called Loyalty Wheel as an example. Let’s see how it can potentially be a game-changer for CRM.
Loyalty Wheel
It is a simple game that allows users to roll a roulette-type wheel and generates an array of random results. It can be either installed as a stand alone feature on a website or deployed as part of the Smartico Gamification tool.
The CRM operators can change the whole look and feel of the game by customizing the user interface, background images, sounds and language. They can also set up how the prizes are won and decide the types of prizes on offer. A typical option is to provide some bonus points to the winner which can be used to gain discounts and bonuses while signing up or making a deposit.
What Can It Do for CRM?
It is an excellent substitute for the usual landing page or the info page used for logging in. Users can play the Loyalty Wheel and win prizes to avail discounts and bonuses for various activities such as signing up, making deposits or placing a bet.
In other words, it lets the potential customers actively win a personalized bonus or discount as opposite to passively getting some one-size-fits-all benefit. Initial results prove its efficiency too. Based on the results of initial trials and use, customer conversion improves by 5-20% when using Loyalty Wheel.
Deployment and Implementation
Smartico has made the installation of Loyalty Wheel a breeze.
It can be seamlessly deployed into an existing website. All it takes is embedding some JS codes and a few hours of technical trial and error.
The following are the main features of Loyalty Wheel:
- Options to provide multiple games simultaneously: Multiple games with different sets of results and prizes can be made available to users.
- Customizable user interface and wheel design: User interface can be customized with company logo and text in any language. The wheel design and appearance can be modified too.
- Multiple skins: It is available in multiple skins, for instance wood, cosmic and metallic.
- Platform-independent functionality: It functions seamlessly on all platforms such as mobile, web and other native platforms.
Once successfully deployed, CRM operators implement the kind of game that ensures best conversion.
The operators have several options to help them bring out the best games possible:
- Spin cost options: The operator can set a pre-defined cost of spin attempt (for example, based on user action, such as one spin for every log-in attempt and 1 spin for 1 euro deposited. The cost can also be based on loyalty points such as 100 points for one spin or it can even be totally free spins).
- Segmenting the games based on customer type: The operator can set which of the users get to play the games, for example available only to VIP customers or only to first-time users).
- Customizing the prizes: The operators can customize the prizes based on the season or customer type.
- Communication options: The communication regarding the games such as winning prizes will be done through emails, SMS, push notifications or website pop-ups as set by the operator.
- Call for action: The operator can set a congratulation message that will appear once the game is over, which can lead the user to a specific page, such as a registration page or deposit page).
- Game preview mode: The operator can preview the game after making all the customization before going live.
- Analytics: Analytics of game usage, prize distribution and customer behavior are also available.
Endless Possibilities
The best thing about Loyalty Wheel is the possibilities it offers a CRM operator. It turbocharges the CRM’s journey towards optimum customer conversion.
After all, conversion is the bread and butter of every CRM. No amount of gamification can help if it does not bring sufficient conversion.
Loyalty Wheel, aided by human imagination and data analytics, has the potential to become a game-changer for CRM operations.
May be it could also ensure that CRM is no longer a game of luck.

AskGamblers has announced that the final voting stage of the 8th annual AskGamblers Awards has started.
The voting phase kicked off on 28 April, and will last until the award ceremony scheduled for 12 June.
As in previous editions of the Awards, players can cast their votes for one of the top 10 finalists in the following categories: Best Casino, Best New Casino, Best Sportsbook, Best New Slot and Best Software Provider.
The Best Crypto Casino, Best Partner and Best Manager categories will traditionally be chosen by the AskGamblers team. This year’s edition introduces a new category, the Superstar Award, a crown achievement handed out to one operator that best represents the values of brands, whose laureate will also be chosen solely by AskGamblers.
Another novelty in this year’s Awards cycle is the Forum vote: the votes from the members of AskGamblers Forum will be counted towards the final tally of votes as a separate voting tier.
Commenting on the launch of the 8th AskGamblers Awards voting stage, Dijana Radunović, General Manager at AskGamblers, said: “Now that we have the finalists, we are entering the final stages of preparation for our biggest night of the year. To say that we are excited about the 8th edition of the AskGamblers Award would be an understatement.”
“As everybody in the team is working tirelessly to make the gala ceremony a night to remember, we invite our players to do their bidding: to give a vote to their favourite contestants and help us choose the rightful winners in the five categories that are open to public vote,” Radunović added.
Before the award ceremony on 12 June, AskGamblers will host the traditional Charity Night on 11 June, where the partners will bid for positions on the website, with the money raised allocated to a humanitarian cause.
