AirMail
You know what happens when your app users get a push notification from your app. They start using it and engaging with you again. Wait until you see what happens when you integrate AirMail. It's Push, but like you've never seen before. An AirMail message adds rich, interactive media—including HTML, images, video and audio—as well as highly interactive and engaging features into your app. Engage your users in two-way communication. Let them save your messages in an AirMail inbox. Transform your push notifications from lightweight alerts into interactive mobile messages. Transform your mobile business.
What is AirMail?
AirMail is the next evolution in mobile messaging. AirMail powers up standard push notifications by sending rich-media push notifications, including HTML, images, video and audio, to user smartphones, even when the app sending receiving and the message is not open. AirMail transforms push notifications from lightweight messaging ("so and so added you as a friend on Facebook") into an interactive communication.
App users receiving an AirMail message receive a standard push notification on their smartphone. What happens next is the AirMail magic. When the user "views" the push, instead of launching the app and going to the app home page, users land on the AirMail message. The message itself will look more like a graphic-rich webpage or an Email. It may contain video or audio; it might display a special coupon or offer; it could display an interactive map of your nearest outlet; it might ask your user to take an action, such as enter a PIN to complete a mobile payment transaction, or accept a meeting request, or register their name on a petition. What it will definitely do is make an impression. And it will do all this without the user ever needing to launch your app.
Your app users will have an AirMail inbox of all the messages you've sent. You'll get delivery and read receipts so you know exactly what happens with every message you send. And AirMail's media-rich functionality ensures that your messages look and feel like your brand.
