This collaboration with Bumbee Labs enables Ray to deliver Wi-Fi based and privacy secure footfall data to verticals such as hotel chains, retail and shopping malls, and schools and universities. In particular, the retail industry will benefit greatly from their new offerings with added data features such as the ability for shopping center management to understand and respond to peaks and flows in customer footfall more effectively and understanding important consumer behaviour. Features such as consumer dwell time, movement patterns and conversion rates in retail stores, shopping malls, smart cities and transport hubs will help businesses to more accurately tailor their offering to encourage more visits, longer visits and ultimately more sales.
