CHICAGO, June 7, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Vibes, a leader in mobile engagement used by top brands to deliver targeted, personalized customer experiences, today announced the availability of new features to the Vibes Mobile Engagement Platform. The enhancements enable brands to personally engage with consumers at scale on mobile channels; mobilize loyalty programs to improve retention and increase average sale value and offer redemptions; and demonstrate ROI from mobile marketing campaigns.

"Consumers' expectations for brand engagement have changed dramatically with the ubiquity of mobile, social, messaging and the on-demand economy," said Ken Kunz, vice president of technology at Vibes. "Marketers are challenged with engaging with these hyper-connected consumers in a way that is personalized and relevant to them at a given moment. Our latest release enables our customers to apply data-driven targeting to deliver meaningful content that compels users to take action."

The Vibes Mobile Engagement Platform enables marketers to identify customers across the digital landscape, and deliver engaging, personalized content via their preferred channel, including Facebook Messenger, SMS/MMS, push notifications, in-app notifications, email and more. Vibes Wallet Manager, a cross-platform mobile wallet management solution within the platform, helps brands to create and manage mobile wallet campaigns and loyalty programs using Apple Wallet and Android Pay.

Key updates include:
