Reason

Allows users to try out the offerings that Swiggy has and allows for them to explore without high committment.

To increase the order value and motivate users to spend more during weekends

Users will have to make 5 orders be it on Genie, Food Delivery, Dineout or Instamart within the span of 12 days, With each order they'll get a scratch card- Order 1- 10% off, Order 2- BOGO Buy one get one offer, Order 3- Better Luck Next Time, Order 4- Free delivery no minimum cart value, Order 5- Swiggy One for 1 month. This will build some excitement and give dopamine to the users to get a Swiggy One Membership for free.

Once the users have experienced the benefits and they'll be habitual to not paying any delivery charges and also getting additional discounts while being a swiggy one user they'll be more likely to buy it.

By introducing an element of gamification and excitement with the spin wheel, Swiggy can encourage users to try new restaurants and order more frequently. The wheel can offer a variety of rewards, such as discounts, freebies, and even Swiggy One memberships, to keep users engaged and coming back for more. By increasing order frequency, Swiggy can ultimately increase its revenue and customer base.



Retention
Bird's eye View

Screenshot 2023-11-29 at 12.40.32 AM.png
Possible Reasons :

  1. Swiggy has Instamart integrated within its single app, allowing users to access either of those products. Additionally, Swiggy offers other sub-products like Dine-out and Genie. Even though the usage of these products is lower compared to Swiggy Food and Instamart, there's a high probability that people will explore these options when they're all housed in one app.
  2. Swiggy's retention rate is high due to its superior customer support and consistent delivery availability, even during peak times.
  3. Swiggy's retention curve flattens after the first day of usage because it primarily offers significant discounts to first-time users. After that initial incentive, there isn't much encouragement for continued use.

    Microscopic View
    Which ICPs drive the best retention?
    ICP 3>> ICP 2>> ICP 1
    ICP 3- Power User (Lucky)

    High Frequency of Use: Lucky's frequent use of the app indicates a strong reliance on Swiggy for their food delivery needs. This habitual usage makes them less likely to switch to alternative platforms.

    Brand Loyalty: Lucky's loyalty to Swiggy suggests a strong emotional attachment to the brand. This loyalty makes them less susceptible to competitor offerings.

ICP 2- Core User (Arjun)

  • High Reliance: Arjun's dependence on Swiggy due to work or personal factors makes them less likely to seek out alternatives. This necessity ensures their continued usage.
  • Value Consciousness: Arjun's appreciation for discounts and promotions reinforces their positive perception of Swiggy's value proposition. This value perception encourages continued patronage.

ICP 1- Casual User (Rahul)

Occasional Usage: Rahul's regular usage of the app, even if not as frequent as Lucky's, indicates a habit of using Swiggy for food delivery. This habit makes them less likely to switch to alternatives.

Variety Seeking: Lucky's enjoyment of exploring new restaurants and cuisines through the app suggests a deep engagement with Swiggy's offerings. This engagement keeps them interested and coming back for more.

What channels drive retention for Swiggy?

Push notifications: These customized push notifications are designed to grab users' attention and drive sales. Tailored to each individual's ordering patterns, they often trigger cravings and lead to late-night snack orders. Users confess that the playful and timely notifications often hit the spot, capitalizing on their established ordering habits

Screenshot 2023-11-29 at 1.12.18 AM.png



Emails: Swiggy sends you emails with special offers and discounts to encourage you to order from them more often. These emails are based on your past orders, so they show you things you've liked before and new things you might like. They also remind you of your favorite restaurants and let you know about new ones nearby. So, if you love food and want to save money, check your Swiggy emails regularly!

Reasons to Churn

Voluntary Churn

  • Poor Value: If Swiggy's offers and pricing are not competitive enough compared to competitors or other food delivery platforms, users may switch to a different platform.
  • Bad Experience: If Swiggy's app or the overall delivery process is frustrating or unreliable, users may lose patience and switch to a different platform. This includes issues such as delayed or incomplete deliveries, unresponsive customer support, and problems with the app's functionality.
  • Poor Food Quality: If the food ordered is consistently bad, users may lose faith in Swiggy and switch to a platform that delivers better meals.
  • Payment Issues: If users encounter problems with payment, such as money getting stuck at the gateway or hidden costs that are not clearly communicated, they may be less likely to use Swiggy again.
  • Poor Support: If customer support is unhelpful or unresponsive, users may feel frustrated and decide to try a different platform.

Involuntary Churn

  • Limited Availability: If a user's favorite restaurants are not available on Swiggy or if the platform cannot deliver to their area, they may be forced to switch to a competitor.
  • Poor Network Coverage: If users have poor internet connectivity, they may experience difficulties using the Swiggy app.
  • Limited Payment Options: If Swiggy does not support the preferred payment method of a particular customer, they may be forced to switch to a competitor.
  • Seasonal Fluctuations: During certain periods, such as holidays or festivals, users may be less likely to order food delivery, reducing their reliance on Swiggy.
  • Lifestyle Changes: Changes in lifestyle, such as a focus on health or a shift towards home cooking, can also lead to churn.
