Executive Summary

Fondue is Postscript's CashBack solution, specifically designed for Direct-to-Consumer (DTC) merchants. It offers a modern approach to incentivizing purchases by providing cash back instead of traditional upfront discounts or coupons. This method allows merchants to drive sales and increase conversion rates without incurring the immediate losses often associated with typical promotional strategies. The core benefit of Fondue is its ability to improve profitability. By offering cash back, brands can encourage purchases while maintaining healthier margins, as the incentive is redeemed post-purchase, often as cash or a store gift card, which can further drive repeat business. This solution helps brands test and optimize their incentive strategies, moving away from deep discounts that can erode profit. Fondue integrates seamlessly with Postscript's SMS marketing platform, enabling merchants to deliver these CashBack offers directly to customers. The platform manages the end-to-end customer experience, from offer delivery to redemption, providing a comprehensive solution for modern DTC commerce.
