By the end of 2013, there will be more on the earth than people, with the average American spending on their smartphone. Through its Mobile SDK offering, ePrize took this mobile dependence into account and created a mobile engagement solution to offers brands a capability to help drive customer interest and secure subsequent engagement via mobile app. By supporting multiple campaigns within one app, the SDK encourages repeat app engagement and reduces app abandonment. Brands are able to learn more about their customer base and better engage consumers with multi-channel executions. ePrize's Mobile SDK reflects an advancement in the mobile engagement space, as brands no longer need to rely on microsites or Facebook apps to implement campaigns, they can now market campaigns directly through their native apps.

We are particularly excited about the ability for players to be notified of all new promotions directly in-app, to encourage repeat app engagement."
