Loyalty programs sort members by points and tiers, and the members who matter rarely sit where the rules put them. Ask a model trained on your own customers, and the answer comes back as ranked plays: who's close to moving up, who's quietly slipping, and what brings each of them back.
1club_tierThis use caseMove members up a tier, above all Silver to Gold, where hotel and dining spend doubles.
2theo_bandGrow theoretical win per member without deepening free-play cost.
3trip_frequencyAdd one more trip a year for Quarterly visitors.
4digital_activeBring land-based members into the app, where crossover members play year-round.

Why it's different
Beyond the tier.
Tiers and points rules sort members by how much they've played, not why they play. Two Gold members can share a tier and nothing else. Neuralift finds the groups inside each tier and what would move each of them, so the program rewards the behaviour you want more of.

Saturday Drive-In Regulars are one trip from Gold at their current pace: a tier tracker and a dining credit move them without extra free play.
Free-Play Redeemers share Silver with them, but cost more in free play than they return in theo.

Reward what you want more of
Shape offers around why each group plays, so rewards buy more of the behaviour you want, not just more points.
Spot the next tier early
See who is close to moving up, and who is quietly sliding down, while there's still time to act.
Cut reward cost that doesn't pay
Find the members whose rewards cost more than they return, and the ones who'd come anyway without them.
Why it's different
Beyond the tier.
Tiers sort members by how far they've flown, not why they fly. Two Golds can share a tier and nothing else. Neuralift finds the groups inside each tier and what would move each of them, so the programme rewards the journeys you want more of.

Golds Nearly Polaris are four flights short on routes they already fly. A 90-day challenge moves them without a single extra discount.
Lapsing Former Golds still open every Aurora Club email. Holding Gold for four flights brings them back before the status year ends.
