2mee completes major funding round

Direct Human Messaging platform allows operators to send high-impact hologram messages directly to consumers, generating CTR rates in excess of 50%

2mee, the Direct Human Messaging platform that helps online gambling operators take player communication and engagement to the next level, has raised £500,000 in its latest funding round as it continues to scale at pace.

The capital injection will allow 2mee to shift up a gear with its sales and marketing activity and grow its commercial team as it looks to partner with more online sportsbook and casino brands seeking to connect with players on a deeper, more personal level.

2mee’s patented technology allows gambling operators to send Human Hologram Messages directly to customers in a way that demands their absolute attention. It has been deployed by big-name brands such as BetFred and Sportsbet.io to leverage the power of emotional intelligence to boost acquisition, retention and deliver KYC and compliance messaging with empathy.

The results speak for themselves – in tests, 2mee’s Instant Human Hologram Messaging delivered 650-2,000% greater engagement with real-world clients enjoying an unprecedented average CTR of 51%.

2mee, whose technology is patented in Europe, China, Hong Kong and the US, allows its customers to send messages across all of the channels where their audiences are active including web – via push and pull messaging – and native mobile applications.

2mee has been designed to do everything a volumetric studio can do but from a mobile phone. The user simply records the person delivering the message from any setting then 2mee recognises the face and cuts out the surrounding clutter, focusing the viewer on the person and the message.

James Riley, CEO of 2mee, said: “We are thrilled to have closed our latest funding round led by experienced tech investors. This will allow us to deploy our ambitious expansion plans and help more sportsbook and casino operators harness the power of face-to-face communication.

“2mee provides unrivalled engagement and CTR rates, allowing operators to take player acquisition and retention to the next level in what has become a fiercely competitive, and expensive, market.

“We have made great early progress but the additional capital we have brought into the business via this funding round will allow us to drive greater awareness of the 2mee product and to work with more operators and brands than ever before.”
