Add Context with Location-Based Messaging

With Urban Airship Segments, you can improve mobile marketing effectiveness and develop those strong mobile user relationships by delivering personalized, targeted push messages to your app users based on everything you know about them:
  • Preferences: tags based on user self-identified characteristics
  • In-App Behavior: tags defined based on actions users have taken
  • Location: where they are now, as well as where they’ve been

How To Turn Location Into Loyalty

Through a simple user interface, select from 2.5 million predefined geofences and create business rules merging location and location history with in-app behaviors and preferences. Then, simply name and save the Segment. You can also define user Segments and push to them from within the app. You can send messages to a Segment as soon as you save it, or schedule messages to be sent later. After you save a Segment, its data is continually updated based on user behavior and location, so you can keep sending highly relevant messages that are perfectly in tune with your audience. Segments captures and stores location information over time versus at a single point in time.
