Xtremepush Acquires Scrimmage to Launch Industry-First Unified Loyalty and CRM Solution

Xtremepush, the leading global customer engagement platform, has announced the strategic acquisition of US-based loyalty platform Scrimmage. The move enables Xtremepush to deliver a market-first, all-in-one solution that natively integrates real-time loyalty with its existing CDP, CRM, and free-to-play (F2P) products.

By bringing Scrimmage’s technology into its ecosystem, Xtremepush is launching XP Loyalty. This dynamic engine moves beyond traditional “points-only” programs, allowing operators to drive retention through a single data layer that supports live, granular personalization.

Solving the “Static Loyalty” Problem

The acquisition addresses a common pain point in the iGaming industry: generic loyalty programs that function in isolation. XP Loyalty replaces these “bolt-on” solutions with a unified system that utilizes:

• Gamification Elements: Missions, challenges, and leveling systems.

• Customization: Operator-specific currencies and personalized widgets.

• Real-Time Execution: Targeted “loyalty nudges” delivered precisely when a player is most likely to engage.

Because the system is fully controlled by CRM and marketing teams, operators can iterate strategies in real-time, improving cost efficiencies by minimizing the “cost of generosity”—ensuring rewards are only given when they provide the highest return on lifetime value.

Leadership and Integration

As part of the deal, Dan Taren, Scrimmage’s CEO, has joined Xtremepush as Head of Loyalty Product. He is currently overseeing a rigorous integration process where every line of code is being audited to ensure it fits into Xtremepush’s “one data layer” philosophy.

“We endeavor to be the ‘experts in the room’ for our customers,” said Tommy Kearns, CEO and co-founder at Xtremepush. “Bringing Scrimmage into the fold ensures we cement that position. We want to move the industry away from static legacy schemes and connect operators to their players in real-time at the most personal level possible.”

Dan Taren added: “Xtremepush is the only market player successfully unifying CRM, F2P, and now loyalty in one platform. That is critical in the optimal rollout of these solutions, especially as partners look to differentiate ahead of major events like this year’s World Cup.”
