Abstract

Companies have developed online loyalty programs because of the flexibility and promptness of the internet. The aim of this research is to analyze if online loyalty programs are able to develop a sense of community among their participants. We posit several hypotheses where symbolic perceived benefits of loyalty programs act as an antecedent and customer loyalty and identification with the brand are the consequences of the customer sense of community.
