Location-Based Marketing (LBS Services)

How It Works

Location Based Services provided by ProTexting is a gateway directly connected to Tier 1 wireless carrier networks and allows is to obtain mobile subscriber location data in real-time. Our gateway is certified by the top wireless carriers including AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile, Rogers and more, giving you the ability to locate up to 280 million subscribers in the United States. Under ProTexting's privacy-protected, permission-based Location Marketing, clients can determine a customer’s mobile device location—all privacy-protected and permission-based. By comparing device location to your business location, you can deliver hyper-local messages and promotions. You can know when your customer is right across the street, or in front of your door.

No App to Download

Because you are connected directly to the carrier location networks via our LBS gateway, you are accessing network location, not application location. That’s why mobile location passes the critical requirements of large brands and retailers.
