Bumped study rewards customers in Ulta Beauty stock, up-levels their loyalty and steals 25% of beauty market share from competitors

PORTLAND, Ore., Sept. 7, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Today Bumped — the tech company on a mission to create an ownership economy — released data from their two-year pilot study showing that when Ulta customers were rewarded in ULTA stock every time they made a purchase, the brand increased their share of wallet among competitive beauty brands 25%.

Over a two-year data study, Bumped automatically rewarded users in fractional shares of Ulta stock (Ticker: ULTA) when they made a purchase with the company. On average, customers who became owners of Ulta transacted there about 73% more monthly, and increased their monthly spend by 67%.

Ulta Beauty, Inc. is the largest U.S beauty retailer—as seen in their recent earnings call, their growth (and the consumer trust that drives it) has continued even through the COVID-19 pandemic.

"There are few categories that see the intense, passionate consumer loyalty that Beauty does," says David Nelsen, CEO & Founder of Bumped. "When consumers already identify strongly with their beauty brand, we were amazed—and delighted— to see that ownership in the brand solidified and grew that loyalty."

The Bumped pilot ran for two years and rewarded over 13,000 US consumers in fractional stock rewards when they spent at more than 80 brands. Users chose their favorite brand in each category to receive stock rewards from. Bumped managed the entirety of the pilot and results were not influenced by brand involvement.

The findings of the holistic Bumped pilot were researched and reported on by The Columbia School of Business, who released their independent study in February 2021.
