CM.com was founded in 1999 by Jeroen van Glabbeek and Gilbert Gooijers in Breda, the Netherlands. They started under the name ClubMessage and helped clubs and event organizers reach their audiences via text message. Since those early days, CM.com has grown into a global leader in conversational commerce and customer engagement. The company offers advanced cloud software that brings messaging, voice, payments, and AI-powered interactions together in a single unified platform. CM.com is listed on Euronext Amsterdam (CMCOM) and operates in more than 15 countries, processing billions of messages and payments annually while adhering to the highest standards of security, scalability, and compliance.
CM.com's Engagement Platform enables organizations to orchestrate the entire customer journey from a single central environment. Marketing, service, data, and messaging come together in one platform, allowing companies to make every customer interaction more personal, faster, and more efficient.
The power of the platform lies in its cohesion: customer data, AI, and communication are fully integrated. This creates an up-to-date and centralized customer view that can be used immediately, whether for personalized marketing, proactive service, or autonomous AI actions.
One platform, multiple building blocks:
Customer Data Platform (CDP): All customer data is brought together in a single 360° profile. These rich customer profiles form the basis for segmentation, analysis, and real-time personalization across all channels.
HALO: HALO is CM.com's agentic AI platform. It allows you to create intelligent AI agents that independently answer customer questions, handle processes, or perform marketing tasks. HALO works completely autonomously based on your input — without the need for manual intervention.
Mobile Service Cloud: All service channels come together in one environment. This allows you to maintain an overview, offer a consistent customer experience, and give your employees the tools to provide faster and more personalized assistance—with AI as an assistant and first point of contact.
Mobile Marketing Cloud: Plan and automate personalized marketing campaigns via email, SMS, WhatsApp, voice, and more. All based on real-time customer data and seamlessly integrated into the customer journey.
AI Decision Engine: This engine determines the best next step for each customer in real time, based on behavior, preferences, and context. The result: personalized actions at the right time, through the right channel — fully automated.
By centralizing everything in one intelligent engagement platform, you offer customers a consistent experience across all channels. You increase conversion and loyalty through data-driven personalization, automate support without compromising on humanity, and scale effortlessly without putting extra pressure on your teams.
The Mobile Marketing Cloud is the marketing software of CM.com's Engagement Platform. It enables marketers to communicate in a truly relevant way, without having to rely on separate tools, manual lists, or IT support.
With this platform, you can build lasting customer relationships by combining all communication channels, customer data, and AI-driven personalization within a single environment. This creates a powerful marketing machine that automatically sends the right message through the right channel at the right time.
One platform for data and activation: No more fragmented systems. All customer data, such as purchase history, preferences, click behavior, and channel preference, is brought together in a central Customer Data Platform (CDP). This data is available in real time for campaigns, segmentation, and personalization.
Smarter campaigns with AI Decisioning: The AI Decision Engine continuously analyzes customer behavior and automatically calculates the most appropriate action or message. This makes campaigns smarter, without the need for endless testing or manual adjustments.
Visual journey builder: Easily build automated customer journeys with an intuitive drag-and-drop interface. Adjust triggers, wait times, and channel selection based on behavior. You can also let AI determine this entirely.
True omnichannel marketing: Send campaigns via email, SMS, WhatsApp, push notifications, voice, or social media. Manually select the best channel, or let the system automatically determine it based on customer preferences.
Ready for e-commerce and retail: The Mobile Marketing Cloud integrates seamlessly with platforms such as Shopify, Magento, and WooCommerce. This allows you to link marketing campaigns directly to shopping behavior, such as abandoned shopping carts, repeat purchases, or stock notifications.
Real-time insights and optimization: Built-in dashboards give you live insight into the performance of your campaigns. You can see exactly what works per segment, channel, or time of day and make immediate adjustments.
Scalable with flexible pricing: The platform is available in multiple packages. This allows you to scale up step by step in terms of functionality, AI use, and data connections. Ideal for growing teams and organizations.
With the Mobile Marketing Cloud, you can increase conversion, retention, and customer satisfaction. At the same time, you reduce the workload on your marketing team, because processes are smarter and largely automated.
The Mobile Marketing Cloud is trusted by an increasing number of eCommerce and Retail companies. Every year, we facilitate thousands of campaigns and hundreds of interactions. In addition to many other brands that use our marketing automation software, here are a few of our customers:
KFC
Coca-Cola

Unified Customer View: All customer data, behavioral data, and interactions are consolidated into a single 360-degree profile within the platform. Unlike fragmented systems where data is spread across multiple tools, CM.com offers a single source of truth about the customer. This enables AI and marketers to personalize in real time, without data silos or manual data enrichment.
All-in-One Platform (Marketing + Service): A single integrated platform for both marketing automation and customer service, including CDP, messaging, AI, and service tools. Other providers often require multiple separate systems for marketing and service, resulting in costly integrations. This enables end-to-end customer journeys, saves on integration costs, and increases operational speed.
AI-Personalisatie Engine (Decisioning): The AI Decision Engine applies personalization based on real-time behavior, preferences, and historical data. Marketers can use customizable AI logic without code, which automatically selects the right message or action. This leads to higher conversion rates, less manual work, and scalable relevance.
Omnichannel Journey Orchestration: Ability to roll out consistent customer journeys across multiple channels such as email, SMS, WhatsApp, push notifications, and more. All channels are natively available within a single builder, preventing discrepancies between channels. Increases customer retention and customer lifetime value through coordinated, cross-channel interactions.
Non-technical Usability: The interface is specifically designed for marketers without a technical or IT background. Unlike complex enterprise systems, the Mobile Marketing Cloud is intuitive, visual, and immediately applicable. It accelerates adoption, shortens implementation time, and reduces dependence on development teams.
Guided Onboarding & Support: Personal onboarding, training, and support from CM.com, including strategic guidance. Where other platforms offer self-service onboarding, CM.com provides proactive setup and dedicated support. Increases time-to-value, reduces errors, and ensures long-term use of the full functionality.
Enterprise Features, SMB Pricing: Access to advanced features such as AI personalization, real-time segmentation, and omnichannel automation at an affordable price. Many platforms only offer these types of features in high-tier licenses with higher costs and long contracts. Offers excellent value for money, especially for growing organizations that need enterprise power without an enterprise budget.
Built on CPaaS Infrastructure (Reliability & Scalability): The platform runs on CM.com's own global messaging backbone and CPaaS infrastructure. CM.com is not an intermediary, but the owner of the technology behind SMS, voice, and conversational channels. Customers benefit from direct delivery, maximum uptime, and scalability without any loss of performance.
CM.com Mobile Marketing Cloud stands out from Enterprise Full Engagement Platforms such as Salesforce, Adobe, and HubSpot because it is built for medium-sized companies that want omnichannel customer engagement without the complexity of enterprise software. Salesforce Marketing Cloud focuses on large organizations that have extensive customization capabilities, long implementations, and large IT teams.
Why CM.com is different from other Full Engagement Enterprise Platforms
Simplicity instead of enterprise complexity: CM.com can be used immediately by marketing teams without technical knowledge.
Salesforce and similar vendors offer a lot of customization, but require intensive IT involvement and longer implementations.
Guided onboarding instead of expensive external consultants: At CM.com, we guide the implementation ourselves. Each customer is assigned a Customer Success Manager for onboarding, training, and optimization.
Full Engagement Platforms often work through external implementation partners who charge extra for every change.
Faster go-live and lower total cost of ownership: CM.com avoids integration overhead by combining marketing, data, and messaging in a single platform.
Salesforce and others require multiple licenses and separate integrations, resulting in higher costs.
User-friendly platform focused on marketing teams: CM.com is designed for speed and adoption.
Salesforce and similar vendors are powerful but complex and best suited for large enterprise environments.
Competitive pricing with enterprise capabilities: CM.com offers a full feature set at prices comparable to self-service tools.
Competitors charge higher rates, in line with enterprise budgets.

Faster go-live thanks to guidance and training
Lower implementation and management costs
Less dependence on IT or external agencies
More focus on growth and customer retention
CM.com Mobile Marketing Cloud sets itself apart from Enterprise Marketing Platforms such as Bloomreach, Insider, and Emarsys, which focus primarily on marketing software. CM.com goes further: the Mobile Marketing Cloud is part of the Engagement Platform, which brings together marketing, conversation channels, and service software in one integrated solution.
Why CM.com is different from other Enterprise Marketing Platforms
Marketing and service in one platform: CM.com combines marketing automation with service software, allowing marketing and customer communication to be managed from the same environment.
Bloomreach and similar vendors do not offer an integrated service solution.
Transparent and customizable AI: Our AI is flexible and transparent: algorithms can be customized for personalized recommendations on a one-to-one level.
Bloomreach and other competitors more often work with static “black box” AI without insight into how recommendations are made.
CPaaS DNA: channels under own management: Thanks to our origins as a CPaaS company, CM.com manages SMS, WhatsApp, and other conversational channels entirely in-house.
Competitors offer these channels through third parties, which leads to additional costs and less control.
Competitive pricing with enterprise capabilities: CM.com offers enterprise functionality at prices comparable to self-service marketing platforms.
Bloomreach and others position themselves as enterprise software and charge higher rates.
Results for companies using the Mobile Marketing Cloud (from CM.com)
One platform for marketing, data, service, and messaging

Less complexity, more focus on growth
CM.com Mobile Marketing Cloud is designed for medium-sized companies that want to go beyond email newsletters. The platform combines marketing automation, Customer Data Platform, conversational channels, and service software in a single solution. This creates a complete customer view that allows marketers to build personalized customer journeys across all channels.
Self-Service Marketing Software Vendors tools such as Mailchimp, Klaviyo, ConvertKit, ActiveCampaign, and DeployTeq focus primarily on email campaigns and quick setup. They are ideal for small businesses but less suitable for organizations that want to connect multiple data sources or automate omnichannel customer journeys.
Why CM.com is different from other Self-Service Marketing Software:
Single customer profile (CDP): CM.com brings all customer data together in one complete profile, enabling companies to send personalized communications via email, SMS, WhatsApp, and the web. Self-service marketing platforms such as Mailchimp or Klaviyo have only limited customer data and often solve this with external stand-alone CDPs. This can lead to fragmented data and limited personalization.
Omnichannel instead of just email: CM.com manages communication channels in-house thanks to its origins as a CPaaS company. This allows companies worldwide to use SMS and conversational messaging at competitive rates. Mailchimp and others offer these channels through external providers.
Marketing and customer service in one system: In addition to marketing, CM.com also includes service software. This allows teams to manage conversations, campaigns, and customer cases from the same environment. Many competitors focus solely on marketing.
Guided onboarding for mid-market companies: At CM.com, a Customer Success Manager guides the implementation.
Mailchimp and similar vendors operate on a fully self-service basis. Companies are often referred to external agencies for implementation, which incur additional costs.
Cost advantage through a single platform: CM.com replaces multiple tools and integrations. This reduces costs and prevents data from becoming fragmented across different systems.
