Electric Guitar PLC (LSE:ELEG) has launched an innovative loyalty app targeted at the banking and finance sector. This new application is a collaboration involving Electric Guitar’s subsidiary 3radical, marketing partner Marcomms.ai, and fintech company Little Birdie. The app aims to enhance consumer engagement by integrating Open Banking data, thereby providing personalized financial insights.
By leveraging first-party data, the app enables businesses to create customized loyalty programs tailored to individual financial profiles. This approach is anticipated to significantly boost consumer engagement and satisfaction levels, as the personalization of loyalty offerings aligns more closely with users’ specific financial behaviors and needs.
The incorporation of Open Banking data will be facilitated through 3radical’s Global Data Store (GDS), which currently houses over one billion data points. This extensive database serves as a foundation for the app's capabilities, allowing for nuanced understanding and analysis of consumer behavior.
John Regan, chief executive of Electric Guitar, described the launch of the loyalty app as a significant milestone in the company’s strategic roadmap. “By integrating first-party Open Banking data with our Global Data Store, we can provide our clients with a powerful tool to deliver highly personalized and impactful customer experiences,” Regan stated.
He further emphasized that this development marks the beginning of a series of initiatives aimed at harnessing data and technology to create next-generation marketing tools. These innovations are designed to strengthen consumer relationships and broaden 3radical's product offerings, which could lead to substantial new revenue opportunities for the company.
Martin Bould, co-founder of Little Birdie, expressed enthusiasm for the partnership, noting, “We are delighted to be collaborating with Electric Guitar to bring the power of Open Banking, along with the hyper-personalized insights and recommendations derived from it, to the loyalty market.” Bould highlighted the potential for this collaboration to foster deeper engagement and provide greater rewards for both consumers and businesses.
As the loyalty app moves towards implementation, it is expected to transform how financial institutions approach customer loyalty, offering a more tailored experience that could redefine industry standards. The integration of Open Banking data with advanced marketing tools signifies a forward-thinking approach in the financial sector, positioning Electric Guitar and its partners at the forefront of this emerging trend.
