CASE STUDY I Swiggy
How Instamart grew their business with in-app retargeting
Instamart, Swiggy’s instant grocery delivery service, operates in a fast expanding industry. To drive more first-time purchases and reduce user churn, they partnered with Remerge to implement a comprehensive retargeting strategy.


Boosting the on-demand delivery business
The Challenge
The on-demand delivery space is experiencing rapid growth with millions of users turning to it every month. Swiggy’s primary goal was to gain more traction among users as it expanded to more cities. A key challenge they encountered was the time it took new users to complete their first order after installing the app. This delay posed a risk of user churn, as customers would explore the app but fail to make a purchase, leading to lost opportunities. So Swiggy Instamart recognized the need for a more robust retargeting strategy to bring users back into the app and prompt them to make a purchase.
« Our partnership with Remerge has been instrumental in driving efficient user acquisition and retention for Swiggy Instamart. Their strategic approach and execution have helped us scale significantly while maintaining strong performance. »
