localsocial : in-store engagement platform
DESCRIPTION
LocalSocial is a proximity platform that makes it easy to add in-store engagement features to a Retailer's mobile apps and services. Using in-store beacons powered by Low Energy Bluetooth, WiFi and NFC, it makes it easy for Retailers to offer Loyalty Points for Walk-ins, trigger offers and specials just for being in-store, and create apps that can be smart about where the customer is located. LocalSocial provides Retailers with greater insight about their store visitors, deepens engagement with customers, and helps drive the customer conversation.TRANSCRIPT

Apple call their BLE Beacons iBeacons. Many have started to refer to all BLE Beacons as iBeacons. We just say Beacons.
Small, battery-powered, low cost. Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Beacons can power a wide range of proximity scenarios.
LocalSocial and 3rd Party BeaconsWe supply own-brand production-ready beacons for Retail Deployment. Platform also works with Beacons from several manufacturers. This gives you flexibility.
