• Social media activity: Track likes, followers, mentions, retweets, posts and comments all in one place.

"We're constantly looking for new and innovative services that help make a positive material impact to our clients' bottom line," said Philip Fayer, president and chief executive officer of Pivotal Payments. "Womply's services will help our clients retain their current customers and leverage existing relationships."

Businesses interested in identifying, engaging and rewarding their best customers will have the option to upgrade to a premium Womply service called Loyalty Cloud. This upgrade offers merchants a revolutionary way to discover who their best customers are, rank them based on how much they spend and reward them for their patronage.

Womply developed Insights and Loyalty Cloud to help merchants better understand their business and customers with no change in day-to-day operations.  "We put merchants first," says Toby Scammell, co-founder and CEO of Womply.
