Galp Selects Localytics to Power Data-Driven Digital Customer Experience

Partnership Will Enable Galp to Accelerate Program to Personalize the Evodriver Platform

Localytics, a digital intelligence platform for mobile and web engagement, announced that Galp, a publicly held, Portugal-based energy company, has selected Localytics to accelerate its digital customer engagement strategy. Localytics will enable Galp to develop unique, meaningful digital customer experiences through its EvoDriver mobile platform, allowing gas station and convenience store customers to pay through mobile wallet, as well as participate in a new digitalization of Galp’s loyalty rewards programs.

“It’s all about convenience,” said João Filipe Torneiro, Head of Marketing & Business Development at Galp, and former CEO of Galp Madeira. “Our customers are on-the-go and need to quickly find our nearest location, easily pay using their preferred payment method, and then go about their journey. Our loyalty programs reach over 3 million retail and business customers. It’s a huge part of what makes Galp different, and we’re investing in digitizing that loyalty experience.”
