Grocery Delivery App Loyalty Survey
Map how active grocery app users evaluate delivery reliability, pricing consistency, and subscription value when choosing or switching platforms, so you can sharpen retention levers, fix acquisition messaging, and benchmark loyalty conversion by user segment.
CONTEXT & RELEVANCE
Why run this survey now
Most grocery delivery apps don't lose repeat users purely on delivery speed. They lose them due to inconsistent slot availability, weak personalisation, opaque fee structures, poor substitution handling, and misaligned rewards mechanics, none of which fully show up in DAU dashboards or retention cohort reports.
If you are...
- Grocery app vs quick-commerce rivalry
- Loyalty or retention product lead
- Subscription tier or pass owner
- Growth or acquisition head
- Category or merchandising strategist
You're likely facing...
- Repeat order drop-off: week 3 to 6
- Pass cancellations: value perception gap
- App = convenient/impersonal perception
- Promo dependency vs organic loyalty
- Multi-app switching at reorder stage
This will help answer...
- Loyalty drivers beyond discount depth
- Reorder drop-off stage and trigger
- Segment preference by basket size
- Pass pricing and renewal tension
- Switch triggers at reorder moment

DELIVERED

Slot-booking friction & app switching behaviour in online grocery (South India)
Subscription tier preference & churn triggers in quick-commerce (India)
OBJECTIVE
A digital-first grocery platform needed to isolate why high-frequency urban shoppers downgraded or cancelled paid membership tiers, and how free-tier users differed from lapsed subscribers on perceived value and re-engagement intent.
WHAT WE DID
Ran a quant survey across 6 metros with 480 respondents, capturing tier downgrade triggers, delivery fee sensitivity, perceived benefit utilisation, and willingness-to-pay corridors segmented by basket size and order frequency.
DELIVERED
A churn-trigger framework ranked by segment, a willingness-to-pay corridor by user cohort, and a benefit-gap map identifying which subscription features drove retention versus which failed to register with lapsed members.
