Every year, December brings a unique
surge of energy. People are celebrating, planning, reconnecting, and most
importantly for brands, they’re engaging. While the holiday season is often
viewed as the busiest time for sales, it’s also one of the most strategic
moments to inspire, retain, and activate audiences in ways that can shape
loyalty well into the new year.
The holiday mindset naturally
creates more openness, more curiosity, and more willingness to explore offers
and rewards. For brands that use this moment wisely, December becomes far more
than a seasonal spike, it becomes a loyalty advantage.
Emotions Are Elevated, And Engagement Follows
December is a month defined by
intention. People are gifting, planning travel, redeeming rewards, and treating
themselves after a long year. Emotion plays a huge part in decision-making, and
that emotional readiness makes audiences more responsive to meaningful
interactions.
Whether it’s a well-timed promotion,
a personalized reward, or an exclusive holiday benefit, brands that connect
authentically during this period see higher engagement and stronger sentiment, because
they’re speaking to people at a moment when they’re actively seeking value and
inspiration.
Redemption Rates Skyrocket
While many programs spend the year
encouraging members to engage with their benefits, December often brings the
payoff. It’s the month when redemptions peak, whether people are booking
end-of-year getaways, securing gifts, or using rewards to stretch their holiday
budget.
This natural behavior shift makes
December an ideal time to:
- Re-engage inactive members
- Introduce seasonal rewards or perks
- Promote travel incentives for holiday or early-year stays
- Highlight point-boosting opportunities
- Encourage early planning for the year ahead
When members are already in “reward
usage mode,” brands that support and guide that momentum see significantly
stronger conversion.
Seasonal Offers Feel More Relevant
One of the greatest advantages of
December engagement is contextual relevance. Holiday promotions don’t need
lengthy explanations—audiences instantly understand their purpose.
This creates a perfect environment
for:
- Limited-time promotions
- Exclusive member offers
- Holiday-themed bonuses
- Rewards tied to gifting or travel
- End-of-year point accelerators

intentional.
