The company provides a unified mobile engagement platform that drives awareness, sales, and loyalty. The AD LIFE platform has been used by internationally recognized brands and agencies to power over 250,000 campaigns across SMS, 2D/QR codes, mobile websites, advertising networks, social media, and branded apps.
In the company’s news,
Hipcricket announced that a text-to-donate campaign it designed and implemented in conjunction with Griffin Communications and the MobileGiving Foundation has landed the company as a finalist for the 2013 Mobile Excellence Awards. The awards ceremony is set to take place in Marina Del Rey, California, on October 23rd at the Ritz Carlton.
Hipcricket’s nominated campaign, executed for the Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma, impressively raised $300,000 in just a few weeks to help those horribly affected by the tornadoes in Oklahoma.

Hipcricket, formerly Augme Technologies, Inc., specifically specializes in SMS, mobile Web sites, permission-based advertising networks and branded apps.
“We-re honored that both Hipcricket and our customers have been acknowledged as a finalist by the Mobile Excellence Awards program,” comments Hipcricket chief operating officer, Doug Stovall. “Mobile engagement can create big wins for both businesses and charities. We are proud that our efforts, as well as those of our clients including Griffin Communication, are recognized by the industry for their outstanding success and helped raised money for those in need.”
