Net Promoter Score (NPS)

Definition

Net Promoter Score (NPS) is a customer loyalty metric that measures how likely customers are to recommend a company, product, or service to others, on a 0–10 scale.

Auch bekannt als: NPSnet promoter

How to calculate it

Ask customers "How likely are you to recommend us?" on a 0–10 scale, then group them: 9–10 are promoters, 7–8 are passives, and 0–6 are detractors. The formula is: NPS = % promoters − % detractors. Passives count toward the total but not the score.

Example: out of 200 responses, 120 are promoters (60%), 40 are passives (20%), and 40 are detractors (20%). NPS = 60 − 20 = 40. The result is a whole number from −100 to +100, not a percentage.

Why it matters

NPS is a widely used gauge of overall brand loyalty and word-of-mouth potential. Unlike CSAT, which rates a single interaction, NPS asks about the whole relationship — making it a longer-horizon signal that tracks whether support and product experience are building advocates or churn risk.

Häufig gefragt

What is a good NPS score?

It varies by industry, but a positive score (above 0) means more promoters than detractors, and many companies treat 30–50 as strong and 50+ as excellent. Trend over time matters more than any single benchmark.

What is the difference between NPS and CSAT?

NPS measures overall loyalty and likelihood to recommend the brand; CSAT measures satisfaction with a specific interaction. They answer different questions and are best used together.
