Helping a Global Payments Provider Grow by 3x With a Multi-Channel Marketing Campaign

The Challenge

UniTeller launched uLink and needed to compete with bigger names in the crowded and competitive global payments space. They also needed a strong brand presence to build awareness and drive conversions across multiple countries.

The global payments provider approached CSTMR to help grow uLink and become a go-to for families needing to send money abroad.

Goals:

  • Generate more customers
  • Increase payment transactions
  • Reduce the overall cost of acquisition

The Solution

CSTMR drew from its years of experience launching sustained growth strategies for fintech brands to develop the digital marketing strategy. To exemplify uLink’s uncompromising commitment and support for U.S. immigrants, CSTMR implemented a multi-channel campaign, including organic content, paid media and email strategy. 

This campaign was critical in driving new user registrations and transactions. 

"Prior to partnering with CSTMR, our messaging and campaign optimization strategies were missing the mark."

Tactics

  • Segmented uLink’s audience to create highly personalized emails and blog content, targeting language and destination country, and other factors.

  • Launched paid media ad campaigns targeting each country’s immigrant audience.

  • Published new content and web copy in multiple languages to target strategic keyword rankings, driven by CSTMR’s SEO audit.

  • Launched “flash sales” and many other customer promotions to drive additional conversions and return traffic.

Results
