In today’s omni-channel environment, customer retention is critical to every business and loyalty is the unifying component for a brand across all marketing initiatives. Yet, many loyalty products offer static, single-channel, spend-and-get programs loaded with services and customization, creating difficult to adapt programs which are costly to implement and maintain. CrowdTwist’s cloud loyalty solution offers adaptable programs tailored to the needs of the customer to offer discounts, points, check-ins or rewards.
Together, Oracle and CrowdTwist will enable organizations of all sizes to deliver personalized engagement and extend loyalty and reward programs to a brand’s most beneficial customer behaviors. The combination offers several benefits to customers:
- Tightly couple loyalty programs with the orchestration of B2C brands and customers through existing integration with Oracle Responsys.
- Heighten customer intelligence and the value of loyalty program data through future integration with Oracle CX Unity.
- Utilize loyalty and retention data to optimize B2B marketing campaigns via expanded integrations with Oracle Eloqua.
- Deliver comprehensive, end-to-end loyalty view at transaction and store levels by extending current integrations with Oracle’s leading industry-specific retail, hospitality and food & beverage applications.
