Swyft’s Mobile Engagement Platform helps brands extend the reach of mobile content, while generating brand awareness and new revenue opportunities across mobile messaging and personalization applications. Through branded content like emoji, digital stickers, GIFs, photo frames, photo filters, chat and video, brands can reach and engage with consumers in the places they spend the most time.

“With these new features, we’re providing brands and advertisers with more insight and control of their campaigns within mobile messaging and personalization apps – with a clearer path to direct ROI opportunities,” said Evan Wray, co-founder and vice president at Swyft Media. “The Mobile Engagement Platform now offers greater visibility into things like campaign performance, engagement and analytics. And, with features like clickable stickers, they’re able to understand which content is driving potential revenue opportunities. In a space as fluid as mobile messaging, being able to have this insight and act upon it quickly is critical to the success of the overall campaign.”

New features of the Swyft Mobile Engagement Platform:

  • Self-service capabilities enable brands, marketers and agencies to build, implement and execute campaigns across a variety of mobile apps, based on their budgets, desired demographics, locations, reach and other KPIs. They also get access to Swyft’s reporting dashboards, which provide analytics on campaign performance.
  • Clickable stickers empower brands to drive consumers to a call to action – whether it’s a direct-to-purchase opportunity of a product, or an awareness campaign like a movie trailer or advertisement – by attaching URL strings to stickers within iOS and Android keyboard apps. Clickable stickers open up new revenue opportunities for brands and provide them with analytics on the influence that digital stickers have on consumer purchases.
  • Retargeting capabilities enable brands to retarget customers with highly personalized content across a wide variety of mobile apps – based on the content they engage with in mobile messaging apps.
  • Third-party analytics validation provides verification of Swyft Media-reported results to brands, ensuring accuracy in reporting across campaigns. Swyft has partnered with Kochava for holistic and unbiased measurement of campaign analytics.
