INTEGRATION OF PASSCREATOR WITH XINFLUENCER ENABLES THE ABILITY TO PROVIDE UNIQUE VALUE TO BRANDS

The integration of Passcreator by Fobi’s Wallet pass platform with the XInfluencer Marketing Platform enables brands to not just gain access to their selected influencer’s audience, but also to gain visibility into campaign attribution and return on investment. By enabling the connection of online promotions to online and offline commerce, brands are able to determine how effective their campaigns were at driving revenue and tracking the impact of their campaigns on customer lifetime value. In addition, Passcreator wallet passes help create a more direct connection for the brand with the influencers’ followers by enabling messaging from the brand direct to the followers. The ability for a brand to send a message to the influencer’s followers’ mobile lock screens when they are near a store that carries their products and encourage them to purchase at a bricks and mortar store and then be able to measure the impact of the campaign on sales is incredibly unique and valuable.

XInfluence CEO Mark Wright stated “This partnership with Fobi is very exciting as it gives us the ability to help our clients with a new way to deliver offers to the right people at the right time and place through Wallet passes. On top of this, the ability to drive people to convert offline and provide improved attribution and ROI data makes this a very unique and compelling solution for our brand customers.”

Fobi CEO Rob Anson stated “This agreement provides Fobi with both an industry leading channel reseller partner and a major catalyst in our sales cycle with global CPG brands. From a solutions point of view, our combined capabilities will deliver an unprecedented digital activation capability for both major brands and retailers resulting in significantly improved promotions, attribution and ROI. It also provides a whole new path of untapped opportunity for enabling the combination of retail data intelligence and social influencer marketing via our wallet passes. We expect this partnership to deliver meaningful new top-line revenue for Fobi and our shareholders.”
