Get an app, not another department

Most apps add complexity: a new codebase, a new platform to manage, a new team to manage it. MobiLoud is different. You get an app that fits seamlessly into your existing workflow, and works with your team, not against it.

Get a custom mobile app that works with your current stack

MobiLoud builds your app on top of your existing tech stack. You don't need to replace your software or manage a new set of tools. Everything seamlessly carries over to a native mobile app that looks and feels unique.

Headless and custom sites

Carry over everything from your composable or headless setup, with no compatibility concerns.

Every brand and market

Regional storefronts, languages and currencies, in one app or one per brand, each with its own menu, push and onboarding.

Checkout and payments

Your checkout, payment providers and fraud screening run in the app exactly as they do on your site.

Accounts and loyalty

Customer accounts, loyalty tiers and saved details, with customers kept signed in between visits.

Search and personalization

Your search, merchandising rules and recommendations, set up once for your site and your app.

Content and campaigns

Pages from your CMS, promotions and launches, published once, where your teams publish them now.

Consent and privacy

Your consent banner and privacy notices carry over, so the app follows the same rules as your site.

Analytics and tags

Your tag manager and GA4 keep working, with app traffic filtered from web, and we add Firebase for app analytics.

Works with services like:

Salesforce Adobe SAP commercetools Algolia Dynamic Yield OneTrust Adyen

...and every other feature on your site. See all integrations

A mobile app that's always in sync with your site

With MobiLoud, you don't have to juggle another codebase alongside your site. Both channels feed back to the same HTML & backend, so your app always moves as fast as your site.

A custom native app

With MobiLoud

Your web team handles everything

Your web team or agency keeps building in the stack they know. No one needs to learn a new framework, and you don't need to add new headcount for the app.

Small changes update automatically

Copy, prices, banners and campaigns appear in the app the moment they go live on your site, with no new app version or App Store review.

Build each feature once, only

You don't need to rebuild new features for your app. They go live in your app straight away, and our team will make any tweaks required to look and feel native in your app.

No separate CMS to manage

Merchandising and content stay in the CMS your team already uses. There's no second dashboard to keep up to date for the app.

New integrations work straight away

Add a new search, reviews or loyalty service to your site, and it works in the app too. No compatibility issues, no limits on what you can add to your setup.

Site and app always match

Prices, offers, content and features are the same in your app as on your site, so customers never run into conflicting experiences, and your team never has to reconcile two.

The operating model

Focus on your site. We'll handle the app.

Your team keeps working as it does today. MobiLoud gives you an app partner that takes care of all the technical upkeep for your app, so you don't have to.

Get a direct line to your best customers

An app puts your brand in the App Store and on your customer's phone, with a more durable connection to the buyers who matter the most.

In the App Store

Customers look for the brands they know in the App Store and Google Play. An app puts your name, your icon and your ratings in front of them when they do.

On the home screen

Your icon sits among the handful of apps they open every day, one tap from their account, their wishlist and their bag.

On the lock screen

Push notifications reach customers directly, with no inbox to get lost in, no spam filter and no ad auction to win. You send them whenever you have something worth saying.

"We were looking at maybe five or six months to build, and again, probably approaching about half a million pounds. And then of course once you've built it, you need to have another small team within your business to keep all that unique content up to date."
Chris Barella Digital Director, GSF Car Parts
"At first, we explored the viability of building our own native apps from the ground up. And while that was achievable, managing them effectively moving forward would not have been feasible due to the disconnected nature of such an approach."

Security, legal and procurement

For the people who sign it off

Your app runs on your website, so customer accounts, orders and payment details stay on the platforms you already secure. Your security, legal and finance teams each get what they need to approve it.

For your security team

  • Customer data stays with you

    Accounts, orders and payments are handled by your own platform and providers, just as they are on your site. MobiLoud doesn't store your customers' data.

  • Your consent rules apply

    The app follows your site's cookie consent and privacy notices, so your GDPR and CCPA setup carries over without a second version to maintain.

  • Store privacy rules, handled

    We keep the app in line with App Store and Google Play privacy requirements, including privacy manifests and data disclosures.

  • Test before it goes live

    Staging apps connected to your non-production site let your team check a release before it reaches the live apps. They are scoped and priced separately.

For your legal team

  • A Data Processing Agreement

    Our DPA and GDPR documentation are ready for your legal team to review.

    Read our Data Processing Agreement
  • Your redlines, worked through

    We start from our agreement and work through your legal team's review and redlines.

  • Accounts in your name

    Your developer, push and analytics accounts stay with you, along with your listings, ratings and customer data.

  • Insurance certificates

    Our insurance certificates are available on request.

For your finance team

  • Invoices and purchase orders

    We bill by invoice or bank transfer and work with purchase-order requirements.

  • Payment terms you agree

    Contract and payment terms are negotiated with you, to fit how your business buys.

  • One contract for every app

    Every brand and market sits on one contract and one invoice.

  • No revenue share

    MobiLoud is priced on your usage and the scope of the work, so what you pay doesn't move with what the app sells.

Launch timeline

Live in 2 to 4 weeks, not a year

We build, test and submit the app, your team shares access and approves each stage. Our proven process lets you go live in the same time a typical build would just be kicking off.

  1. Week 1

    1. Kickoff

    We agree the scope, markets and launch plan with your team, and you give us access to your site and developer accounts.

  2. Weeks 1 to 2

    2. Build and integrate

    Our team sets up navigation, tab menus and push on your live site and confirms every integration on it works in the app. You'll have a working preview by week two.

  3. Week 2

    3. Customize and test

    Design and navigation are tuned to your brand, push is connected to your own account and analytics reach GA4 and Firebase. After QA on iOS and Android, your team signs off.

  4. Weeks 2 to 4

    4. Launch

    We take the app through both store reviews, which usually take one to two weeks, and publish it on the App Store and Google Play. Then your launch plan begins.

Can MobiLoud handle a site as complex as ours?

MobiLoud handles complex sites because the app runs on your website. Everything your site already does, from headless front ends and custom checkouts to regional storefronts and dozens of integrations, works in the app without being rebuilt. GSF Car Parts' app runs on a headless front end over Magento, with around 140,000 products and a live vehicle lookup.

Is this a real native app?

A MobiLoud app is a real native app that customers download from the App Store and Google Play. Our team designs and builds your custom app on your website, with a tab bar and navigation, push notifications, persistent login, social sign-in and deep links. Your checkout, integrations and custom features keep working, and website changes appear in the app automatically. Jack & Jones's app is rated 4.7 out of 5 from thousands of App Store ratings.

We already have a native app. Can we replace it?

You can replace an existing native app with MobiLoud without starting over. As long as the app is published under your own developer accounts, your new app ships as an update to your existing App Store and Google Play listings, so your users, ratings and reviews stay with it, and nobody has to download anything new. We plan the switch with your team so it lands when you want it to. Jack & Jones and Junior Couture both replaced custom-built apps with MobiLoud.

Can one partner cover all our brands and markets?

One MobiLoud team can cover every brand and market you run. Each brand can have its own app, and one app can serve several markets, with its own menu, push and onboarding for each language and region. One configuration is included, and additional configurations are priced separately. One team, one contract and one invoice cover them all. BESTSELLER's Jack & Jones, Vero Moda and ONLY & SONS apps are all built with MobiLoud.

How does the app handle customer data?

The app leaves customer data where it is today: on your own platform and with your providers, because your app runs on your website. MobiLoud doesn't store your customers' data. We sign a Data Processing Agreement, the app follows your site's consent setup, and we'll take your security team through how the app handles data.

Is there an SLA?

Yes. MobiLoud Enterprise comes with an SLA that commits response and resolution times by priority. Critical incidents get a response within 2 hours, 24/7, with resolution targets of 8 hours for backend issues and 24 hours for app updates, subject to app store review. High-priority issues get a 4-hour response and a 24-hour resolution target, and standard issues an 8-hour response and a 48-hour target, both within your agreed regional business hours. A 99.9% monthly uptime guarantee covers our remote configuration hosting, backed by service credits. Your website and push delivery sit outside it, since push goes through your push provider.

Can we test site changes before they reach the live app?

You can test site changes before they reach the live app with staging apps: a second set of iOS and Android apps connected to your non-production site and rebuilt with every release, so your team can check that a change won't break the live apps. Staging apps are scoped and priced separately.

Can you integrate our own SDKs or build native features?

MobiLoud can integrate your own SDKs and build custom native features. Every app has native integrations for push notifications and analytics, plus native features like social login. Beyond those, we can build custom SDK integrations and native features like Face ID and biometric login, scoped and quoted on a case-by-case basis.

How do we measure what the app brings in?

You measure what the app brings in through your own GA4 and Firebase, where app traffic is separated from web, and we can build custom dashboards for app engagement and push. Adjust or AppsFlyer can tie installs and in-app revenue to the campaigns that drove them. Your success manager reviews usage, sales and push results with you in regular strategy reviews.

How much work is it for our team?

Launching the app takes little work from your team beyond what it does today. In week one, you agree the scope with us and give us access to your site and developer accounts, and your web team adds two small files we provide, so links to your site open in the app. You approve each stage after that. Once the app is live, your teams keep working on your site, and we handle the native build, every iOS and Android update and both app stores.

Which platforms does MobiLoud work with?

MobiLoud works with Salesforce Commerce Cloud, Adobe Commerce and Magento, SAP Commerce Cloud, Shopify Plus, BigCommerce, headless builds and custom platforms. If your site works in a mobile browser, it can power your app, subject to a technical review. Junior Couture's app runs on Salesforce Commerce Cloud across several regions, languages and currencies.

What does an enterprise app cost?

MobiLoud starts at $799 a month with no share of your sales. That covers the build, the launch and a team that keeps the app updated. A custom native app, by comparison, typically costs $250K to $1M+ a year once you count the team, QA and store upkeep.

How long does it take to launch?

Most brands are live in 2 to 4 weeks from kickoff: kickoff in week one, build and testing in weeks one and two, then submission and store review in weeks two to four. If you are working toward a peak season or a re-platform, we plan the release around it.

Can we contract on our own terms?

Your contract and payment terms are negotiated with you: we start from our agreement and work through your legal team's review and redlines. We bill by invoice or bank transfer and work with purchase-order requirements, and insurance certificates are available on request.

Who owns the app?

Your business owns the app. The listings, ratings, installs, analytics and customer data are yours, because the app is published under your own Apple Developer and Google Play Console accounts. MobiLoud keeps the IP in the platform that builds the app. If you move on, your listings and customers stay with you, and on request we hand back an export of your app configurations within 30 days.

See your app before you commit

Book a call with our team to go through your platform, markets and requirements. Afterwards, we'll build a free, live, interactive preview of your app on your own site.
