Branch

Why combine Branch and Purchasely?

Pre-requisites

The minimal version of the Purchasely SDK supporting this integration is 3.40. If the Purchasely SDK integrated in your app is under the minimal version, please update it.

The Branch SDK also needs to be integrated inside the app.

Subscription events

General overview

Branch allow their customer to acquire, engage, and measure across all devices, channels, and platforms.

This integration will allow you to get all the available Purchasely events to Branch and get a better and deeper understanding of your subscription business and customer behavior.

Purchasely provides a unified dataset to track the subscription events for all stores. These events are generated by the Purchasely Backend and can be sent to Branch.

Subscription events generated by Purchasely will be sent to Branch using a server-to-server integration. As a result, you will be able to see all the subscription events in your Branch Dashboard and map them with your acquisition campaigns.

Events

The following events are the main ones that can be sent to Branch by Purchasely. See the full list here.
