Marketing campaigns lacked personalization and scalability, limiting engagement across 40+ countries and 38 million customers.

Solution

Xebia implemented a GenAI content platform with automated data segmentation, message generation, and compliance workflows.

The Challenge: Scaling Personalization Across Global Markets

The bank’s marketing teams struggled to deliver tailored content to millions of customers in multiple regions. Manual content creation slowed campaign launches, while regulatory requirements and brand standards made it difficult to scale personalization without risk.

The Approach: Building a GenAI Content Engine for Rapid Personalization

Xebia partnered with the bank to design and deploy a GenAI-driven marketing platform using Google Vertex AI and Gemini. Key elements included:

  • Advanced Data Segmentation: Customer data was anonymized and grouped into micro-segments for precise targeting.
  • Automated Content Generation: Multiple message variants were created for each segment, ensuring a consistent brand voice.
  • Integrated Compliance Reviews: Built-in risk checks safeguarded regulatory and brand standards before deployment.
  • Seamless MarTech Integration: Approved messages flowed directly into the bank’s marketing automation systems for immediate activation.

The Outcome: Quantifiable Gains in Engagement and Efficiency

The GenAI platform delivered measurable business impact, including:

  • 20% overall increase in click-through rates across campaigns
  • 25% rise in Gen Z engagement thanks to more relevant messaging
  • 3% boost in conversion rates driven by tailored offers
