message function for LINE Official Accounts～Linking with DialogOne® to enhance user relations and boost sales～
Tokyo, March 22, 2023 – D.A.Consortium Inc. (DAC) is pleased to announce that it
will collaborate with Criteo, the commerce media company, to develop arecommendation message function for LINE Official Accounts. Utilizing Criteoʼs AI
technologies and large-scale commerce data, the two companies will work together todevelop technologies that analyze the interests of LINE Official Account users and deliverpersonalized, optimized recommendation messages that help raise company and brandconversion rates and boost sales.

With inflation rapidly altering purchasing behavior, personalized ad communications thatreinforce ties with consumers have become more important. The need for CRM(customer relationship management), which enables companies to identify customers
with high conversion rates and create and deliver relevant ads, is rising. The domestic
CRM-related market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.0% from 2021~2026,exceeding 290 billion yen by 2026(*1). Recently in digital marketing, the need to further
strengthen communication measures using LINE Official Accounts has increased as well.
Ever since LINE introduced corporate services in 2012, DAC has promoted one-to-one
communication between users and companies that utilize LINE through DialogOne®(*2),
which it developed and provides. In addition, DAC has long been actively working totake full advantage of Criteoʼs solutions by linking the DMP AudienceOne®(*3) in 2017and obtaining Data Feed Partner and Tag Partner certification under Criteoʼs Criteo TechPartner Program in 2022(*4).
With the technical linkage of DialogOne® and Criteo, companies and brands can not only
communicate in the usual manner using LINE, but they can also utilize Criteoʼs largescale commerce data to deliver highly relevant, personalized content that enhances
relationships with users for higher conversion rates and sales.
