Xtremepush opens Brazil office in São Paulo
Xtremepush, the leading provider of CRM and loyalty marketing powered by AI, is opening an office in São Paulo as it continues to invest in the LatAm region.
To aid this expansion, experienced sports betting and CRM specialist, Álvaro Camargo has been hired as Country Manager, and will be building a team to ensure Xtremepush’s Brazilian clients and partners are fully supported with all their CRM, loyalty and gamification needs.
Camargo joins from WeContent, a leading digital marketing company for iGaming in Brazil, where he held the role of Operations Director since 2016. The São Paulo native has vast experience within CRM and has been using the Xtremepush platform as a customer over the past few years.
Xtremepush is exhibiting at next week’s SBC Summit Rio with Camargo attending alongside CEO Tommy Kearns who will be taking part in the ‘AI Revolutionising the Future of Betting Products’ panel. The company lifted the lid on its groundbreaking new AI solution at ICE London and will be on hand to explain its benefits to attendees in Rio.
The opening of the Brazil office and appointment of Camargo is the latest stage in Xtremepush’s growth plan in LatAm following deals over the past few months with casino platform and game developer Vibra Gaming, Brazilian sportsbooks Playr.Bet and Betsul and Arena Esportiva.
Tommy Kearns, CEO of Xtremepush, said: “Brazil and the wider LatAm region is a key strategic focus for Xtremepush in 2024, so it’s incredibly exciting to be opening our first office in São Paulo.
“There are huge opportunities in Brazil, and we already have a solid footprint there, but we are looking to grow quickly and I’m delighted to welcome Álvaro to the Xtremepush family.
“We’ve known him for a long time and he has a really deep understanding of Brazilian marketing and CRM in general. Xtremepush offers a unique combination of CRM, gamification and loyalty marketing powered by AI, so I’m sure he will be a fantastic addition.”
Álvaro Camargo said: “I am so happy to be joining Xtremepush at what is an historic time for sports betting and gaming in Brazil. I have used the Xtremepush platform as a customer and have seen first-hand the value that it has brought to player retention.
“As we’ve seen in the US over the past few years, acquisition is the initial battle but to win the war you need retention and Xtremepush’s platform is the perfect fit for the Brazilian market.
“I couldn’t be starting at a better time with next week’s SBC Summit Rio and I look forward to meeting with any company that is looking to take their CRM and loyalty marketing to a completely new level.”
Xtremepush is exhibiting at SBC Summit Rio (Stand A560) next week and CEO Tommy Kearns is speaking on the ‘AI Revolutionising the Future of Betting Products’ panel at 11:20 local time on Thursday 7 February.
