Sally Beauty-Alliance Data to Launch New Credit Card Program
Read MoreHide Full Article
Sally Beauty Holdings, Inc. (SBH - Free Report) has inked a multi-year deal with Alliance Data’s card service business to introduce a new private label credit card program. The program will be applicable to the Sally Beauty Supply (SBS) and Beauty Systems Group (BSG) segments. Per the deal, the company is expected to test the program in selected stores in second-quarter fiscal 2020. Following the test, the program will be rolled out in all stores across United States and e-commerce platforms.
With this new program, retail and professional customers will be able to earn rewards by purchasing their preferred hair color, hair care and other beauty supplies. Also, the program includes other cardholder benefits.
This collaboration will enable Sally Beauty to enhance its existing loyalty program — Sally Beauty Rewards — that boasts a member base of more than 15 million. Moreover, improvement in customer loyalty and better customer relationship will provide payment flexibility to professional customers that will contribute to the BSG segment.
According to sources, Sally Beauty will be able to leverage Alliance Data's Frictionless Mobile Credit capability. This will make credit card application fast and convenient as well as increase the number of customers.
Apart from these factors, the company is undertaking other steps to enhance customers’ shopping experience. Sally Beauty initiated tests of the new Oracle based point-of-sale systems in the BGS and SBS segments as well as intends to install the same in at least 1,400 stores in fiscal 2019. Additionally, the Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) company is upgrading its websites along with e-commerce and mobile capabilities for the segments. Also, it is on track to launch applications for the same.
All said, we hope that such well-chalked efforts will be able to boost this stock. The company’s shares have dipped 1.4% in the past three months compared with the industry’s decline of 22.7%.
Shiseido (SSDOY - Free Report) has a long-term earnings growth rate of 20% and carries a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).
The Estee Lauder Companies (EL - Free Report) has a long-term earnings growth rate of 13% and a Zacks Rank #2.
Biggest Tech Breakthrough in a Generation
Be among the early investors in the new type of device that experts say could impact society as much as the discovery of electricity. Current technology will soon be outdated and replaced by these new devices. In the process, it’s expected to create 22 million jobs and generate $12.3 trillion in activity.
A select few stocks could skyrocket the most as rollout accelerates for this new tech. Early investors could see gains similar to buying Microsoft in the 1990s. Zacks’ just-released special report reveals 7 stocks to watch. The report is only available for a limited time.
