Rakuten Marketing Partners with RevTrax to Drive In-Store Sales
NEW YORK (PRWEB) January 29, 2018 -- RevTrax, the leading personalized digital promotions company, has announced a partnership with Rakuten Marketing Affiliate Network that enables brands to increase sales by deploying secure and highly targeted digital coupons to consumers, utilizing advertiser DMP data to enable real-time offer personalization and ensure incrementality of in-store affiliate sales. The consumer can simply save these offers to a digital wallet via Apple, Google or Samsung.
"When it comes to in-store affiliate sales, we know that advertisers have historically been concerned about incrementality, security and scalability – all of which are addressed in this joint solution," said Seth Sarelson, RevTrax Co-founder and Chief Operating Officer. "We are thrilled to marry our personalized offer serving and measurement capabilities with Rakuten’s network to significantly disrupt the digital offer space."
Key features of the new partnership include:
• Incremental sales growth: Identify new versus existing customers (via DMP or other audience integration) and respond accordingly with relevant offers.
• Mobile optimization: Device-responsive technology optimizes to show the consumer the right offer experience for each device. Full support of mobile wallets.
• Member-level tracking: Track down to the member-level to support loyalty affiliates.
• Security: Ensure that coupon links cannot be copied from approved affiliate sites.
• Greater reach and scale: Work with an advertiser’s entire network starting day 1.
• Flexibility: Run offers down to the SKU level. Exclude gift cards and other items.
• Greater control: Serve single use coupons in real-time. Control activation caps and total budgets for each offer.
"Our retail partners love turnkey solutions," added Sarelson. "The Rakuten plus RevTrax integration requires NO tech work by advertisers or publishers to get started, and we’ve seen programs launch in as little as two weeks. This is a win-win for the industry, and retailers wanting to see fast in-store results.”
Recent in-store affiliate results reported by RevTrax include:
• Doubling sales from a major retailer’s affiliate program
• $20 million of incremental in-store revenue for a retailer in one year
• $15 of in-store revenue average generated from each click for a retailer
According to Rakuten Marketing CEO, Tony Zito, "Sales occurring in the physical brick & mortar store are often driven by digital marketing, and retailers need the ability to leverage the affiliate channel to drive incremental purchases in-store at scale. RevTrax is a natural partner for Rakuten Marketing to accelerate growth of in-store affiliate sales."
