The CSAT score informs businesses about whether their customers are satisfied with their products/services, whereas the NPS score is used to calculate customer loyalty by determining how likely customers are to recommend the brand to others and purchase from the company again in the future. RFM analysis scores, on the other hand, indicate how frequently customer purchases drive the company's revenue. Customers who are experiencing customer churn or who want to expand their customer base use loyalty management solutions to gain real-time visibility into the health of their customers by using algorithms and rules to predict the likelihood of subscription renewal.
