Net Promoter
The Net Promoter Score (NPS) is a widely used metric to gauge customer loyalty and satisfaction. In Checkbox, you can add an NPS question to your survey to quickly measure how likely respondents are to recommend your product, service, or brand to others. The higher the score, in the scale, the higher the likelihood that a customer will recommend your service (and therefore, the higher the score, the better!)

Let’s say you’re a survey platform and you would like to measure customer satisfaction with your platform, the survey features and the general customer experience. You can add any question type to ask any questions, but one type you should definitely not omit: NPS.
Let’s see how you can use it.
Things to remember when using and interpreting NPS :
- Your respondent will fall into one of three categories based on their response :
- Promoters: These are the respondents who respond with a score of 9 or 10, indicating they are enthusiastic and loyal customers.
- Passives: These are the respondents who respond with a score of 7 or 8. This indicates that they are satisfied enough, but they are not loyal and enthusiastic enough about the service to be considered Promoters.
- Detractors: The respondents who respond with a score between 0 and 6. They are certainly not happy and are unlikely to recommend your service to anyone else.
How to Use Net Promoter Question in Your Survey
Just go to your survey and add this question using the “Add Question” option.

You can customise the text of the question, and the system on the backend will perform the calculation of the Net Promoter Score based on the following:
How is The NPS Score Calculated?
The NPS score is evaluated by subtracting the percentage of Detractors from the percentage of Promoters
- For example : 70% of your customers are Promoters, 10% are Passives and 20% are Detractors, then your NPS = 70-20 which makes 50!
Promoters - Detractors = NPS
- So, what score should you strive for ?
- 0 and more → good
- 20 and more → favorable
- 50 and more → great
- 80 and more → excellent
So this is it! Do keep in mind that if your respondents give you a lower score, it doesn’t mean an immediate catastrophe. Different industries have different standards for the scores, so it's important to keep that in mind.
