Sooqr will enhance the personalised e-commerce capabilities of Squeezely, which the Spotler Group acquired in 2021.
Combining these two complementary technologies, the Spotler Group positions Squeezely strongly in the emerging Commerce Experience Platform (CXP) category, enabling retailers to leverage insight into customer behaviour, preferences and buying patterns to personalise the end-to-end shopping experience and improve customer engagement, conversion rates and revenue.
