Project Overview

Mercedes-Benz, a global leader in the automotive industry, sought to enhance customer engagement on its e-commerce platform by introducing digital vouchers. These vouchers were intended to serve as a key incentive for online purchases, increasing both customer retention and satisfaction.

However, their existing system lacked the crucial functionalities required to efficiently manage, distribute, and track these vouchers. Without a streamlined voucher system, the brand faced challenges in executing customer-focused promotional strategies, missing significant opportunities to increase sales and customer engagement.

Key Challenges

Limited Voucher Management: The existing e-commerce platform was ill-equipped to support the comprehensive management of digital vouchers. Without the capability to automate voucher creation, distribution, or redemption, the process was cumbersome and time-consuming.

Lack of Customer Engagement Tracking: Mercedes-Benz needed more precise insights into how customers interacted with vouchers. Without effective tracking and analytics, it was difficult to measure the success of promotions, track redemptions, or understand customer preferences.

Custom Development Required: Due to the complexity of the requirements, the default features of the Shopware 5 platform were insufficient. Custom plugins needed to be developed to meet specific needs, such as automated voucher creation, and tracking tools.

Integration with Existing Systems: Mercedes-Benz faced challenges with integrating the new voucher management system into their existing Shopware 5 platform. The need to maintain operational stability while introducing custom solutions required a seamless integration approach.

Advanced Tracking and Analytics: To address the need for deeper insights into customer engagement, we developed a tracking and analytics system integrated directly into the platform. This allowed Mercedes-Benz to monitor voucher usage, and track redemptions in real time.
