At Yotpo, we’re privileged to work with organizations at the top of their game, bringing expertise, creativity, and innovation to give brands the tools they need to compete — and win — in an ever-changing industry.

The third annual Yotpo Partner Awards honor the outstanding companies that push the envelope on eCommerce experiences and go above and beyond to serve their clients. This year, we’re putting the spotlight on the incredible work that enabled brands to craft engaging experiences that drive merchant growth.

Read on to see the finalists, and stay tuned for the grand reveal of the winners on March 23rd, at an exclusive industry event at Shoptalk.

Fueling growth and success

2019 was a year of major achievements driven by deep relationships with our partners. From new integrations, to co-marketing initiatives, to seamless brand deployments, our partners played key roles in our mutual ventures and shared successes.

This year also saw strengthened relationships with our platform partners, with notable highlights including being hand-picked by Magento as their bundled UGC provider, as well as being selected by Salesforce Commerce Cloud as a Quick Launch Program partner.

2020 started off on a high note with our second acquisition in as many years. By joining forces with SMSBump, we’ve added another solution to our product lineup to better serve our clients, prospects, and partners with a highly engaging channel that sparks enduring customer relationships.

Ultimately, our growth would not be possible without our ecosystem of leading agencies, tech, and platform partners. Their commitment to their clients’ success helps us shape our own trajectory and achieve our goals.

More global than ever

Our partner program has mirrored Yotpo’s explosive growth, and the Awards are a reflection of that path. In its inaugural year, we honored two partners, followed by seven the following year. This year, in its third installment, we added categories for our European partners, as well as three brand new categories for a total of 14 winners overall.

“Our partners are core to Yotpo’s vision and a key driver of our shared business growth. The continued expansion of our partner program is a testament to our goal of enabling game-changing digital experiences for forward-thinking brands across the globe. We anticipate providing even more exciting opportunities for partners as we take crucial steps towards a single-platform approach to eCommerce marketing,” said Will Schnabel, SVP Business Development, Yotpo.

And the finalists are …

We’re thrilled for this opportunity to recognize our partners for their outstanding work and incredible achievements. In 2019, we received over 100 submissions from partners all over the globe, including the U.S, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Sweden, the UK, Finland, the Netherlands, and more.

With such compelling applicants, selecting the finalists proved an extremely difficult task. After a rigorous process, we narrowed down the field to a select group of partners who truly excelled over the past year, with a maximum of three finalists per category
