“Facebook's developer tools were the primary reason how we could move from web to app development very quickly.” - Ved Antani, AVP, Engineering (Myntra)

Goals

With Facebook tools, Myntra could quickly build mobile applications that include a very robust analytics system, a strong social sharing feature, and an easy way to log into the app. These critical services helped Myntra become the world’s first “App Only” e-commerce company.

With Facebook Mobile App Install Ads, Myntra used the Lookalike Audience feature to target their ads to a high-quality audience of a similar profile to the people who have converted from previous campaigns. By exposing this Lookalike Audience to the same messaging that worked successfully on existing audiences, Myntra was able to bring down the cost per install by 30%.

Facebook Login provided an easy way for Myntra's users to log into the app and helped Myntra reach a large customer base on a variety of platforms. People who used Facebook Login have significantly higher engagement with the app as compared to any other social login products. These customers spent 25% more time on average with 20% more screen views, and they had a 28% higher retention rate than users who were not using Facebook Login.

Myntra also used Facebook Analytics for Apps as their primary user insights tool to gather valuable insights on the quality of installs, conversion channels, and various retention mechanisms.
