Why HubSpot and LoyaltyLion?

HubSpot is inbound marketing and sales software that helps companies attract visitors, convert leads, and close customers.

Using LoyaltyLion and HubSpot together allows you to incorporate loyalty information into emails in order to turn one-time shoppers into long-term customers.

Benefits of integrating with HubSpot

  • Add loyalty information to your emails

  • Engage your existing customers and acquire new ones

  • Increase customer acquisition with referral prompt emails

How to integrate LoyaltyLion with HubSpot

  1. In LoyaltyLion, go to Integrations, then under Available integrations, click HubSpot.

  2. Under 1. Connect to HubSpot, click the Connect to HubSpot button.

  3. Log in to HubSpot and authorize LoyaltyLion. You are then returned to LoyaltyLion.

  4. Under 2. Configuration, choose the customer properties to send: Send all current and future customer properties, Do not send any customer properties, or Choose customer properties to send.

  5. Click Complete installation, decide whether to tick Backfill data for all customers, then click Install.

When the installation finishes, you will see an Integration installed message. If you tick the backfill, we send the properties you chose for every customer in your program. If you do not, we only send customers whose loyalty data changes after you install. LoyaltyLion sends customer properties to HubSpot, not events.

To change which properties you send later:

  1. In LoyaltyLion, go to Integrations, then under Installed integrations, click HubSpot.

  2. Change your customer properties.

  3. Click Save changes.

You will see an Integration updated message when your changes are saved.

FAQ

How can I use this data to help my business?

This data will help you increase revenue, engagement and customer acquisition, as well as segmenting customers based on their loyalty properties, prompt customers to refer their friends by emailing them with their referral link and more.

I've connected HubSpot, but the LoyaltyLion properties don't appear.

LoyaltyLion only sends data while your program is live. If you didn't tick Backfill data for all customers when you installed, customers appear in HubSpot as their loyalty data changes. After that, changes are sent as they happen.
