Push Notification Messaging

What is Push?

Push Notifications are permission-based messages that you can send to your App users. Unlike an email, a Push Notification puts your message front-and-centre on their smartphone or tablet screen. This boosts your App engagement significantly and gives your firm an exciting and powerful new communication tool.

Compose

You can compose a Push Notification message using your secure login. It’s as simple as writing a text. Typically, Push Notifications are short messages which contain information your users will find valuable.

Schedule or send now

Smart customisation options let you choose the right time to send your Push Notifications and schedule them in advance. You can create promotions, offers, service updates and marketing campaigns, and share your recent news or blog articles in seconds.

Some of our Accountants send reminders, chase returns, share key dates and release pertinent budget info all via their App.

Enjoy

Once you start using Push Notification messages you can enjoy high if not staggering ‘open’ rates. Push Notifications deliver the message to the device your users have with them almost all the time, without getting stuck in an email queue or junk folder!

From time to time the user may wish to export part or all of their receipts as an Excel file or CSV. If you wish they can send this data to you or they can send it via email to themselves or another contact.

GPS Mileage Tracking and Management

When it comes to managing expenses on the move, half the battle is keeping an accurate tab on your mileage. So our techies developed the built-in Mileage Tracker to help solve this common problem.

Your App can automatically track your users’ business miles and help them record and log every trip at the touch of a button. It will also help them manage the mileage, storing information and allowing them to view, edit or export the log as a CSV file with ease.

GPS Mileage Tracker

Send messages to all your App users quickly and easily

Your App will go literally wherever the user takes their Smartphone or tablet (From bedroom, to boardroom and ballroom to bathroom). This creates an opportunity for client engagement and prospecting that’s worth leveraging.

For example a Push Notification (a message sent via the App to all your App users) will generate on average a 97% open rate. By comparison, an email will generate an open rate of 4% if you are lucky.

Let’s put that another way… Push Notifications are easy to write, take seconds to send and generate a 97% higher open rate than emails! That means the next time you want to send your clients and prospects a message, you can do it all in less than a minute, and you know it’s going to be read whether it’s year-end reminders to important budget information, financial or practice news.

Many of our clients re-name these ‘Push Notifications’ as ‘Wealth Alerts’ being able to advise users rapidly, easily and effectively.

Customised Icons and Bespoke links added

The Platinum Accountants’ and Bookkeepers App offers you a bespoke environment in which you can create your own App that best reflects your firm. For example, on the App home page you can customise it by adding new icons that link to your current customer portal or secure document exchange login. Alternatively, you can add icons that link to Dropbox, Cloud Accounting or other 3rd party sites.

Save hours with Photo Receipt Management

Thanks to your Platinum App, your clients will never lose a receipt again! The App enables your users to track receipts and expenses at the touch of a button. With minimal effort, users can photograph a receipt and save it to the App. Additional information can be added and receipts stored by category, amount and date.

Once the receipt is stored, at pre-agreed intervals the user can press ‘email your accountant’ and it will send the receipt file (as a csv.) to a pre-agreed email address with an auto-populated subject line for ease of filing and reference.

Latest financial news automatically updated on your App

Platinum clients can also enjoy the latest financial news that automatically feeds into your App in real time. That means your users get the latest, important financial news on your App on their Smartphone or Tablet, with no effort or work required from you, whatsoever.

Real time tracking of precious metal prices

The Precious Metal Tracker enables your App users to view the very latest ‘real time’ prices of metals. Displaying gold, silver, platinum and palladium prices, this tool was developed after many requests from App users. It enables investors to track important data via your App from anywhere in the world. What’s more, as you have to pay for almost all other metal tracker Apps (at least the good ones) your users will see this as great added value.

Skype integration

If you already use Skype then you will immediately see how powerful this feature is. If you are new to Skype you’ll quickly realise it’s well worth looking at.

When we build your App we embed your Skype ID or even the telephone number you want people to call using Skype. When your end user clicks on your Skype logo on the App it will then initiate the call via the Skype App rather than a native phone call.
