The SMS marketing platform Postscript is partnering with Tie to launch a new integration designed to help e-commerce brands recover more revenue by enhancing their SMS abandonment automations.
This partnership combines Postscript's SMS marketing platform with Tie's identity graph technology to solve a common problem for online retailers — many shoppers who have previously opted in to receive text messages appear as anonymous visitors when they return to a website. Because these returning, opt-in subscribers are not recognized by the website's standard tracking, the automated text message flows designed to recover abandoned shopping carts or abandoned browsing sessions are never triggered. The new integration addresses this gap by using Tie's identity graph to match these anonymous website visitors to their existing, opted-in subscriber profiles. This behavioral data is then seamlessly sent to Postscript, enabling the same high-converting SMS automations to be triggered for these shoppers just as they would be for anyone else recognized by a traditional cookie.
