Annex Cloud Loyalty Experience Platform vs. SessionM

Annex Loyalty Cloud is a SAP partner product and part of the SAP CX portfolio which provides great possibilities to use it in your SAP CX ecosystem. Integrations can be hard to set up out-of-the-box, but once done unleash the real power of the combination of a Loyalty and for instance, Marketing Cloud.

SessionM is ideal for enterprise restaurants, brands, and organizations to build and drive loyal behaviors via technology platforms. They've built their system via robust APIs integrations, but are now diving into a white label app system that allows smaller brands (100 units+) to utilize their incredible technology in their own brand, as opposed to just bigger players. They're the best at what they do.

Annex Cloud Customer Loyalty Platform is the first full-featured loyalty vendor I've worked with.

SessionM was light years ahead of Fishbowl, in the data science tendency assumptions that are built into the system, plus they don't offer an app for your brand to use. You'd have to employ a 3rd vendor to manage that. It's also important to note that SessionM sees ALL guests and POS content in the system, not just loyalty identified transactions.

Incentivized

• Increase of 30 % in loyalty members
• Increase of 15% store visits
• Increased spending

• Our work with SessionM has been so incredibly impactful to our brand loyal guests, and the value they bring to our brand. For example, our loyal guests are worth $100+ more than our non-loyalty guests.
