From chaos to clarity: How modern contact centers are winning with CRM and loyalty

4 min read Aug 07, 2025

In today’s fast-paced digital landscape, delivering seamless customer experiences is no longer optional - it’s essential. While many companies invest in loyalty programs and marketing campaigns, the contact center often remains disconnected, underutilized, and underserved. But what if this crucial touchpoint could do more than just handle complaints? What if it could become the cornerstone of customer loyalty and satisfaction? 

Imagine this scenario: It was 9:03 a.m. when Maria’s headset lit up - her seventeenth call of the morning, and her coffee was still warm. On the other end: a frustrated guest, confused about their loyalty points. As Maria switched between disconnected systems to review the guest’s booking, loyalty tier, and prior conversations, valuable minutes passed. She stayed calm, but the process was anything but smooth. 

Sound familiar? This plays out every day in contact centers across tourism, telecom, retail, banking, and insurance. While companies invest in marketing and guest experience, the most human touchpoint - the contact center - is often siloed and overlooked. 

At BE-terna, we think it’s time to change that. 

A new era: when CRM, loyalty, and contact centers come together 

Picture a different approach: Maria answers the call. Her agent desktop instantly shows the guest’s booking history, loyalty level, and preferences. The account opens automatically - no repeated questions needed. Copilot suggests responses and drafts follow-up emails in seconds. This is the power of integrating Microsoft Dynamics 365 Contact Center with CRM and loyalty platforms.

Bridging the gap: CRM, loyalty, and contact centers 

What’s missing in many organizations? 

  • Tourism and hospitality brands invest in loyalty, but agents lack real-time guest data. 
  • Retailers run VIP campaigns, but struggle to identify loyal customers when it counts. 
  • Telcos and utility providers manage high call volumes, but miss chances to build relationships. 

With integrated systems, businesses can: 

  • Personalize every interaction 
  • Respond faster and smarter 
  • Build trust and increase retention 
  • Drive long-term value  

Real-world example: Valamar elevates guest experience 

Valamar, Croatia’s leading tourism company, wanted to enhance the guest experience, not only at check-in or check-out, but throughout the entire journey. Working with BE-terna and Phobs, they launched a fully integrated loyalty platform, connected to their reservation and service systems. 

The results: 

  • Guests earn and redeem points seamlessly across services 
  • Loyalty data enhances profiles for personalized service 
  • Contact center and front desk teams access guest data instantly 

This isn’t just about systemsit’s about putting people first.
