Merkle, dentsu’s leading technology-enabled, data-driven customer experience management (CXM) company, announced that it is strengthening its relationship with Braze and becoming a premium partner within the Braze Alloys Partner Program. Through the expansion of its partnership, Merkle and Braze will enable more of the world’s leading brands to leverage sophisticated customer engagement strategies that drive loyalty and retention to fuel business growth.
Since joining Braze Alloys in 2020, Merkle has become a strategic part of a best-in-breed ecosystem of technology and solutions partners that help integrate, customize, and amplify customer engagement capabilities for Braze customers.

Merkury helps companies grow and own their own cookieless private identity graph. The solution uses first-party data as a competitive differentiator and strategic asset to better recognize, understand, and personalize experiences to customers across all channels in real time. Once the Merkury tag is added to a website, brands can more accurately recognize previously unknown site visitors. The increased recognition is then seamlessly integrated into the Braze profile, allowing users to benefit from enhanced personalization. The Merkury tag delivers an average 30 percent increase in email reach and associated revenue helping to drive business results.
