iLoop Mobile Broadens Multi-Media Messaging Service (MMS) Support for Brands and Marketers
iLoop Mobile expands MMS rich media messaging for brands, retailers and media companies enhancing
consumer mobile marketing experiences.
San Jose, CA—March 7, 2011—Leading mobile marketing provider iLoop Mobile has expanded deployment of
MMS (MM7) messaging for rich media mobile content delivery including images, video, graphics, audio and other
multi-media content, accessing three of the largest U.S. carriers.
“We are excited about this important mobile marketing channel because iLoop Mobile is committed to providing
innovative and compelling ways to reach consumers and audiences,” shares Melissa Chyba, vice president
services at iLoop Mobile. “iLoop Mobile now makes MMS available on the Verizon, AT&T, Sprint and AllTel carrier
networks, with support for T-Mobile coming soon.”
MMS has been available to mobile users in the past, but was primarily restricted to person-to-person
communication. According to ComScore Mobilens (Dec 2011), almost 40% of U.S. mobile phone subscribers are
now actively using MMS capabilities to send pictures on their phone.
With iLoop Mobile’s MMS capabilities, marketers now have access to an additional mobile channel that offers
mass adoption. While SMS still has larger adoption overall and serves as a core component to any mobile
marketing program, it's a channel that is becoming increasingly competitive as more and more brands deploy
SMS marketing initiatives. MMS offers brands a way to stand out from their competition and go beyond the
limitations of standard text messaging by incorporating multi-media content such as video clips, graphics,
coupons/barcodes, images, audio and other rich media using the standard SMS channel and standard short
codes into their communications. With MMS, marketers and publishers can also increase SMS capabilities past
the 160-character limit for standard text messages.
“Many iLoop Mobile customers are creating mobile MMS campaigns,” says Steven Gray, COO at iLoop Mobile.
“We bring them expertise and solutions to ensure best experience for their customers across the wide array of
wireless devices. If a handset is MMS enabled, we provide best consumer experience whether it’s the newest
smart phone or a legacy feature phone.”
Using the iLoop Mobile Platform, the opportunities using MMS are endless. For example, a health care or
pharmaceutical company can use MMS to send how-to-videos to outpatients to assist them at home or on the
move with a medical device—how to use an asthma inhaler for example—directly on their mobile phone. For the
automobile industry, auto dealerships can offer videos via MMS (including location aware messages using geo-
fences) of their newly released car models that point the viewer to the nearest dealership for a test drive.

2. iLoop Mobile broadens the opportunities for marketers to easily deploy MMS marketing for a wide range of richer
mobile experiences, leveraging the channel to add rich media to the consumer experience. MMS also opens up a
world of content publishing opportunities, allowing mobile users to easily access the most compelling content from
the world's leading content providers. For mobile users with the latest smart phone handsets, the advanced
multimedia platforms available offer mobile-centric end user experiences that are only limited by the marketer’s
creativity. MMS crosses all boundaries and with iLoop Mobile’s solutions is a major addition to a marketer’s
toolset in engaging today’s consumer.
