Rokt, the e-commerce technology firm leveraging AI to personalize shopping experiences, has partnered with Skip, Canada’s own delivery network, to launch a retail media solution within the Skip app. The new feature will deliver targeted, relevant messages from advertisers to Skip’s user base at key moments in the purchasing process, enhancing customer engagement while opening up new advertising avenues, according to a news release.

With a vast network of over 50,000 restaurants, retailers, and convenience stores across Canada, the food delivery service will use Rokt’s AI-powered network to offer highly contextual messages on the order confirmation and tracking pages of its app. This integration is designed to present timely content to users when they are actively engaged, enhancing the overall order experience and driving conversions for advertisers in Rokt’s network, it said.
