Our take
Consumer expectations are at an all time high, and the way that brands facilitate engagement with their customers must be distinctive and authentic to the brand. That’s an extremely challenging task for brick and mortar retailers, like restaurants, competing in a digital age.
Thanx helps businesses like these with a multi-channel marketing platform that replaces and consolidates point solutions into a single loyalty-driving channel. Its distinctive strategy is to focus on delivering non-traditional loyalty programs, maximizing a sense of distinctive engagement that heightens brand-consumer relationships.
After a period of development, which included the acquisition of marketing and data insights platform ZeroStorefront, Thanx fully launched what it calls Loyalty 3.0 - that enables any brand to deliver sophisticated loyalty programs regardless of its size and scope. It has also partnered with Olo, an SaaS platform for restaurants, so that its users can take advantage of its Order, Pay, and Engage solutions on top of its own offerings.
