The Marketing Challenge
Ofertia curates promotional offers and deals from offline stores and publishes them online so that its users can get deals that aren’t available elsewhere. Many of the deals and offers they publish on their site are available for a limited time. So, it was really important for them to update their users in real-time.
Not being able to send real-time updates meant losing repeat customers.
That’s where PushEngage came into the picture.
