How to Create Personalized Promotions with Braze?

Imagine having promotional messages that carry unique codes your customers can immediately redeem. To make this scenario even better, you can easily analyze who and when used them. I am sure that you’re thinking to yourself: “That sounds like a lot of development work and a long time-to-market.” But, what if there was an easier way to achieve that? 

What if you could launch personalized promotions with omnichannel distribution in minutes using two tools that you can quickly integrate? Without the need to involve developers after initial integration. You can achieve that effect using Braze and Voucherify integration

What is Braze?

Braze is a leading customer engagement platform that empowers marketers to collect and act on data from any source in real time. The platform enables creative customer engagement across channels, supports cross-channel messaging, and optimizes experiences with AI-powered tools. This helps companies build strong, loyal customer relationships that drive growth.

Voucherify & Braze integration  

With Voucherify – Braze integration you can create contextual, personalized promotions with the omnichannel distribution. You can send one-off promo codes, gift cards, or referral codes created in Voucherify to customers using various distribution channels and triggers thanks to Braze. You can also enrol customers into a loyalty program and update them about their progress or other events such as loyalty points expiration using Braze distributions. 

"Creating personalized experiences is imperative for today's brands. As consumer behaviors and expectations shift, brands that double down on personalized customer engagement will see increased conversion rates, retention, and revenue. Our integration with Voucherify provides the best-in-class technology to empower brands to create differentiated, cross-channel messaging campaigns that automatically send personalized coupons, gift cards, and referral codes that are tailored for different segments of customers." Matthew McRoberts, SVP Global Alliances at Braze.

Braze and Voucherify empower you to reach: 

  • Increased conversion rates thanks to personalized incentives reaching your audience at the right time and context.
  • Faster time-to-market of advanced campaigns with developer-friendly API and cross-channel distribution.

Gift cards

There are many reasons why you should add gift cards to your sales strategy. Standing in consumer’s shoes, free credits are like free money. Why not spend them? Market data shows that gift cards not only drive more sales but also increase average order volume.

Gift cards are perfect for exclusive promotions sent in personalized messages to the most loyal customers. They express your gratitude for their loyalty and naturally lead your best audience to the next purchase.

Promo messages with Braze

Behavior-based campaigns

‍Braze gives you a 1:1 customer profile with ongoing updates. Use these insights to capture dormant users and schedule automatic workflow that responds to prolonged inactivity.

Referral programs 

‍In the ideal world, all your happy customers would share their opinion with friends or family and continuously extend your potential reach. In the real world, you need to invest some effort to convert satisfied customers into real brand advocates.

Voucherify lets you create single- or double-sided referral programs. When you add a referral campaign to the Voucherify dashboard you can sync it with Braze and invite your existing customers to join the program.

Loyalty program updates 

Loyalty programs are a great strategy to convert your customers into your brand advocates and increase their purchase frequency and average basket value. However, it is not enough to launch a loyalty program to achieve that. Personalized notifications can help you to remind your customers about soon expiring rewards, missing points to reach a next tier level, missing points to get a new reward or inform your customers about special promotions (for example, double-point days). 

Are you ready to build personalized promotions with omnichannel distribution?
