Time is money

Building a tailored sales promotion system engages all your marketing and technical resources. You need a concept, broken-down requirements, and plenty of time for software development. Have you ever heard one of your developers saying the task takes more time than expected? We bet you hear it often. When new solutions are built, unexpected development is always ahead. And speaking of software development, time is money, isn't it?

Doing promotions and loyalty the right way

Every promotion requires some indispensable sub-systems to track, distribute, and primarily validate promotion rules and limits. Looking at modern e-commerce, the entire system also needs to be flexible enough to easily connect with external applications.
You can spend time, money and effort to build a custom solution that may meet all these requirements or go with a market-ready solution and easily adjust the platform to meet your unique business requirements right from the start.
