The Project

InComm Payments partners with top US brands to deliver innovative payment solutions, gift cards and user-friendly financial products. In 2021, Adobe asked us to untangle and deliver a technically challenging set-up for an exciting new InComm debit card product.

The Challenge

InComm saw an opportunity to use a new debit card product as the catalyst to improve campaign development processes. Until Tap CXM and our Adobe partners jumped in, there were a bunch of barriers in the team’s way:

  • Adobe Experience Manager wasn’t being used to its full potential.
  • Lack of in-house Adobe Campaign Standard expertise meant campaign development was slow, expensive, and inflexible.
  • Reliance on external developers to build and edit email templates caused frustrating (and frankly unnecessary) delays.
  • Complex communication needs arising from multiple partnered offerings required a more flexible and efficient system.
  • Handling sensitive financial data necessitated robust security measures which often meant sacrificing flexibility, especially in personalising marketing communications.

The Solution

In the back-end, we built a bespoke Adobe Experience Manager integration that funnels information directly into Adobe Campaign Standard. It’s compliant, secure, fast and dynamic, giving the InComm team more information to work with. We’ve since automated the database synching processes to improve record matching and enable agility.

But all that insight wouldn’t have mattered much if InComm couldn’t use it. So, we proactively identified, scoped, recommended and developed a bespoke drag-and-drop content management system within Adobe Campaign Standard. This allowed InComm’s team to create and edit emails in-house. No external developers. No coding. More consistency, lower costs, and better customer engagement.

The Results

The implemented solution led to significant achievements:

  • Open rates regularly exceed 30% on welcome journeys and loyalty communications, well above the 24% industry standard.
  • Reduced campaign development time by 99% from 5+ days to around 2 hours.
  • Enabled InComm to become self-sufficient in Adobe Campaign Standard and ditch the developers. 
  • Improved customer engagement in big ways (behaviour-based rules, better audience identification) and small ways (adapting imagery, content and messages).
  • Strengthened compliance and agility by allowing the team to adapt quickly to market changes—crucial in the financial sector.
  • Strengthened data security with robust measures to protect customer data, build trust and shore up compliance.
