Case study
Promotions management
Insight-driven promotions, with none of the fuss
Boost engagement, generate additional revenue and protect profit margins. Horizon offers a single, integrated platform to manage the creation, execution and measurement of personalised offers and promotions – whether digital or physical – across all customer touch-points.
Put data at the core of your promotion strategy
Using advanced machine learning, Horizon analyses behaviour to help you better understand your customers interests, propensity to churn or likelihood to buy, ensuring that sales promotions and offers only go to those who might need the extra incentive. Horizon then uses real-time automation to contextually select the promotions that best suit each customer – even if that’s no promotion at all.
Create
A single platform to create personalised offers, manage voucher codes and integrate your product catalogue, to develop a calendar of strategic and tactical sales promotions.
Execute
Share micro-targeted offers through your websites, mobile apps, email and social media, and process baskets in real-time at ecommerce and your physical point-of-sale.
Measure
Use fallow cells and campaign-specific control groups to measure the impact of each promotion, and further analyse customer activity to optimise performance over time.
Real-time point-of-sale promotions
Apply points-based promotions as part of your loyalty program, or give cash discounts based on the customer profile, purchase location, method of tender, basket items, frequency of transaction and more. Issue vouchers to stimulate future sales, and redeem them as part of a qualifying transaction. Horizon also includes a comprehensive promotion simulator, so you can check that the right promotions will be applied to the right customers as part of a holistic marketing strategy.
- API to integrate your points-of-sale

Issue and redeem vouchers
Issue voucher codes based on customer behaviour (whether purchase activity or otherwise) and deliver those vouchers through web, email, mobile app, digital wallet, SMS or push notifications. Redeem voucher codes for digital or physical rewards, or as part of a qualifying purchase transaction.
Target personalised offers
Micro-target offers based on any combination of known customer attributes, on any or all customer touch points (e.g. app-only offers) along with other context such as the date or time. Horizon will automatically calculate a personalised list of next-best offers for each customer, in real-time,
Run product-specific promos
Upload your product catalogue to Horizon to run brand, category or SKU-specific promotions. That might be a discount on a particular brand of shirts if the basket also contains a pair of similarly branded jeans, or whatever you can imagine to drive cross-sales and purchase frequency.
Positive emotions create financial value
Make your customers smile with offers and promotions that are personalised to them, relevant to their needs and easy to redeem. Whether it’s free shipping, exclusive offers or a tactical campaign to increase new customer referrals – the right gesture can go a long way towards building emotional loyalty and increasing lifetime customer value. Putting smiles on faces puts money in the till.
