Integrated Solution Empowers Enterprises to Leverage First-party Data at Scale to Deliver Personalized Value-based Experiences that Build Lasting Customer Bonds
ALLEN, Texas, Sept. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Annex Cloud, a global, enterprise technical solutions provider of advanced loyalty management solutions and experiential customer retention software, today announced a partnership with commercetools, one of the world's leading ecommerce experience platforms built on modern MACH (Microservices: API-first, Cloud-native and Headless) principles, to enable enterprises to deliver personalized, omnichannel customer experiences at scale—increasing customer lifetime value, improving retention, and building emotional customer bonds that last.
The acceleration of digital transformation has led to fierce competition, challenging enterprises to stand out and retain customers. Enterprises are also struggling to find better ways to collect customer data, acquire new customers, and deliver a personalized omnichannel customer experience. Loyalty is now a business-critical growth strategy that can help enterprises address these challenges, including creating unique one-to-one interactions across every touchpoint.

Annex Cloud's integration with the commercetools ecommerce experience platform includes the ability to display and leverage loyalty data across the buyer's journey—including on product, category, and confirmation pages. It also enables brands to send the right messaging, promotions, and offers throughout the buying process.
