Feature Comparison

How Xoxoday Plum Addresses Feature Gaps with BI Worldwide

BI Worldwide brings 70+ years of engagement expertise and deep behavioral-science consulting to enterprise loyalty programs - a proven services partner for Fortune 500 brands. The trade-off is a services-led operating model that leans on BIW's account team for most configuration, customization, and ongoing program changes. Plum Storefront closes that gap with a product-first approach: branded launches in weeks, not months, and the self-serve controls Marketing teams need to run programs independently.

Consumer loyalty programs need to feel native to the brand from day one - and how much your marketing team can control without filing a ticket shapes program velocity.

Beyond the Platform

Beyond the Platform - What You Get When You Choose Plum

When you choose Plum Storefront, you get a product that runs on your terms - not a services retainer.

At launch, a dedicated Implementation Manager runs a structured 2-4 week storefront launch - not a months-long consulting engagement. You get hands-on help to configure branding, catalog, program rules, and integrations, but you exit the launch owning the admin. No locked-in agency dependency, no billable change requests to tweak a banner or add a tier.

Post-launch, a named Customer Success Manager runs structured MBRs and QBRs focused on the metrics Marketing actually owns - redemption rate, active members, program ROI. When you want to launch a new tier, run a seasonal campaign, or extend into a new country, you configure it yourself and ship the same day. BIW's services model is proven, but it bills by the hour - Plum's SaaS economics stay predictable as your program scales.

On AI and roadmap, Plum's AI Copilot is live today - reward recommendations, program optimization insights, and catalog intelligence built into the product, not promised on a deck. And because Plum is one platform across consumer loyalty, employee rewards, channel incentives, survey rewards, and instant payouts, you can extend into adjacent use cases without stitching in a new vendor.

We were manually sourcing and sending rewards one by one. With Plum, the entire program runs itself - and our referral program delivered 20% growth year on year.

We used to spend weeks coordinating survey incentives manually. With Plum, distribution is fully automated - respondent experience improved and our ops team got that time back.
