They used Amplitude to learn more about new retailers in Brazil and their behaviors. They noticed these retailers were highly engaged, browsing on mobile devices during the day and adding products to their cart but only making purchases after hours or later in the week from their desktops.
Using these insights, their teams designed personalized in-app marketing messages that match each end-users purchase habits. For example, they began sending push notifications after 6 p.m. to owners with product recommendations.
As a result, ecommerce is their fasting growing channel, with 1 million orders per week, 65% driven by recommendations.
