How Rekoya Became imoโ€™s Go-To Agency for Influencer Marketing, Worldwide.

Client Overview

imo is a global instant messaging and video calling platform that connects users worldwide. Known for its lightweight design and low data usage, imo is especially popular in emerging markets where stable internet connections can be a challenge. The app supports high-quality video calls, voice messages, file sharing, and social features, making it a go-to communication tool for millions.

Objective

imo partnered with Rekoya to increase awareness and app downloads across the Middle East and Asia. The goal was to position imo as a fun, reliable, and easy-to-use appโ€”especially in regions with large expat communities and poor internet connectivity. A key focus was also to promote imoโ€™s new AI-generated avatars feature, highlighting the platformโ€™s innovation and appeal to younger users.
