Understand the difference

Two customer promises.
Two future costs.

Warranty claims and loyalty redemptions create uncertain future costs.
Actuarial valuation helps estimate the provision required today.

  1. The smartphone is covered

    The customer buys a smartphone with a manufacturer's warranty.

  2. A covered issue occurs

    The phone develops a fault and the customer makes a warranty claim.

  3. The claim is settled

How We Value Warranty and Loyalty Provisions?

  1. The obligation starts at the sale

    A warranty or loyalty obligation can arise when the underlying transaction happens, even though the cost comes later.

  2. Built around your experience

    Claims history, costs and redemption patterns provide the evidence for estimating future obligations.

  3. Tailored to how your programme works

    Product terms, warranty coverage, reward rules and customer behaviour shape the valuation.
