Understanding NPS Scores in RMS
Promoters
Guests who score 9 or 10 are considered Promoters. They are loyal enthusiasts likely to return and recommend your property to others. These scores are highlighted in green on the NPS Results Report.
Passives
Guests who score 7 or 8 are classified as Passives. They are generally satisfied but not fully loyal, and may be swayed by competitors. These scores appear in yellow on the NPS Results Report.
Detractors
Guests who score 0 to 6 are identified as Detractors. They are dissatisfied and may damage your brand through negative word-of-mouth, online reviews, or social media. These scores are shown in red on the NPS Results Report.
How the NPS Score is Calculated
NPS = (Number of Promoters − Number of Detractors) ÷ Total Number of Completed Surveys × 100
Scores of 9–10 indicate excellent guest satisfaction.
Scores of 7–8 suggest general satisfaction with opportunities for improvement.
Scores of 0–6 highlight significant areas needing attention.
Special Consideration: Value for Money
Unlike other categories, Value for Money scores require careful interpretation:
High scores (9–10) may suggest pricing is set too low relative to the quality of services and facilities offered.
Lower scores (0–6) may indicate guests feel the pricing is too high for what is provided.
This exception helps ensure that pricing aligns appropriately with perceived value and service standards.
NPS Survey Configuration
The NPS Survey is created using a Form Letter in RMS. The survey will automatically use the image set in Photo Setup as the banner background. If no Property Logo is uploaded, the Property Name will be displayed as text on the NPS Survey.
