This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20261020759137/en/ Derry Halloween, Co.

Effort Inflation Puts Brand Loyalty at Risk, Netcracker/CSG Research Finds27.10.2026 14:30:00 EET | Press release
Netcracker/CSG® today released the 2027 State of the Customer Experience Report, which finds that “Effort Inflation,” the growing time, steps, and mental effort customers must use to engage with brands, is damaging trust and loyalty.

One consequence of Effort Inflation is the rise of a “shadow customer experience” layer, where customers turn to third-party AI assistants and personal agents to navigate brand interactions, pushing critical touchpoints out of the brand’s control. As more support journeys shift outside owned channels, brands risk losing visibility, context, and opportunities to build trust. This trend reinforces the need for connected, effortless experiences that maintain context across channels, resolve issues quickly, and strengthen loyalty. Netcracker/CSG’s global survey of 1,800 digital citi
