The measure in context
What is Net Promoter Score (NPS)?
Net Promoter Score (NPS) is a metric used to measure customer loyalty and likelihood to recommend a brand, product, or service.
It is based on a single question:
“How likely are you to recommend us to a friend or colleague?”
Customers respond on a scale from 0 to 10 and are grouped into three categories:
- Promoters (9–10): Loyal and highly satisfied customers
- Passives (7–8): Satisfied but not enthusiastic
- Detractors (0–6): Unhappy customers who may discourage others
What to measure

How to Calculate NPS
