Enabling banks to save up to 90% on SMS costs while improving reliability, security and customer experience.
Catapush is a proprietary Push notification solution that allows banks to send important communications
to their customers’ mobile devices.
In particular the IT solution offered by Catapush consists of a Software as a Service (SaaS) on AWS cloud infrastructure which guarantees the reliable, traceable, secure and confidential sending of Push notifications and in-app messages, transactional one-to-one or massive sending to the end users even under critical situations.
Catapush goes beyond Android FCM/HMS and iOS APNs best effort Push services by providing a special purpose proprietary real time background channel with devices (using XMPP protocol) for guaranteed and real time Push notifications delivery and message statuses reporting
Learn moreDetailed delivery timestamp is provided about each message sent in real time for building applications that react. Add real time delivery status tracking to your Push notifications including message enqueued, sent, delivered, read.
Message store, forward and retry mechanisms allow the delivery of all Push messages even under critical situations.
Learn moreSecure transmission over an encrypted TLS channel and content encryption support end-to-end for maximum security (not available on SMS). Only the bank and its customers can have access to the Push notification contents.
Full compliance with GDPR confirmed by legal opinion from a leading independent law firm (Native Push services do not guarantee same level of compliance and expose banks to risks)

Native push services with “best effort” QoS do not guarantee the delivery of all messages sent
even under critical situations because of:
the FCM/APNs token changes and is not updated, causing failures in receiving new messages from the backend to the new token.
the lack of real-time tracking of notifications can result in lost information about failed deliveries if the app does not communicate effectively with the backend.
although native push notifications function during development, the absence of optimization for bulk sending and proper management of multiple connections can lead to delivery delays in a production environment.
Not delivered/Expired native push notifications may not be deleted, causing double communications to the customer, e.g. duplicate OTPs in case of fallback on SMS.
A case of success
In 2018 Unicredit, with millions of active customers on their mobile apps, integrated Catapush platform with its backend systems and iOS/Android mobile apps, phasing out the native push services provided by IBM Worklight.
Unicredit communicates today through Catapush with over 4 millions customers on its mobile app, sending more than 1.000.000.000 messages per year growing.

Apple APNs "best effort" push service
See APNs docs
APNs does not guarantee the delivery of your push notifications. For example during multiple message sending if the smartphone is switched off only the last message will be delivered while all the others will be discarded.
Android FCM / HMS "best effort" push service
See FCM docs
If your application is closed by the user in settings, the push notification will be received by the smartphone but it will be discarded and it will not be accessible by the mobile user.
Competitors' "best effort" push services
Parse, Urban Airship, Pushwoosh and other main push providers use Apple APNs and Android FCM / HMS best effort push services as content delivery channel thus they cannot neither guarantee the delivery of your push messages nor provide a real time delivery status tracking.
Go beyond APNs and FCM “best effort” push delivery if notifications are an important part of your real time app!
