By giving rewards to loyal customers, it is expected to stabilize sales in the next period. So the company needs customer grouping based on customer loyalty to reward. The application of data mining can be used as an analysis to determine the loyal customer inventory according to the total purchase. In the data mining method, the clustering algorithm is one of the most popular to use where the data belonging to the same cluster will be close to each other and will be far from the data about another cluster. The results obtained in the form of customer information with criteria not loyal, loyal, and very loyal based on sales data in 2016. Also, customer criteria information from the clustering process can be used as a reference to determine the reward for customers.
