Win More Customers Online & In Stores

Acquire new customers by giving them exclusive offers and verifying their data for eligibility. Then, use this data to drive loyalty and repeat purchases.

Reward Your Customers’ Identities & See More Conversions

People identify strongly with the communities they belong to, like students, teachers, and the military. SheerID enables you to create community-based offers, and then uses 200K+ authoritative sources to verify if consumers are eligible to redeem them.

Identity-based offers are proven to increase conversions and loyalty both in stores and online. Customers feel appreciated, so they are more likely to redeem and share your offer. And, because they voluntarily give you information about their identity, you can use this data to re-engage them. For example, you can send personalized messages to students for every back-to-school period.

SheerID is the ideal solution for both online and in-store community offers, and has specialty omnichannel features and services to optimize your success.
