Turn ecommerce traffic into incremental revenue with AIQ Loops

If you are already investing in ecommerce, your homepage banners, category placements, and featured product slots should not just fill space.

They should create incremental revenue.

AIQ Loops allows ecommerce retailers to activate sponsored placements across their digital storefront, monetizing traffic, increasing visibility for priority SKUs, and unlocking new brand-funded growth opportunities.

This is not a traditional ad network. It is a controlled placement ecosystem inside your own ecommerce environment.

What Loops actually does

Loops enables promotional placements across ecommerce menus, including:

  • Homepage banners
  • Category feature placements
  • Product highlights
  • In-app menu visibility
  • Promotional spotlight sections

These placements are activated across regions by default — allowing brands to reach shoppers at scale. Retailer-specific targeting is also available by request when needed.

For AIQ ecommerce customers, this creates two powerful use cases:

  1. Monetize placements for brand partners
  2. Promote your own high-margin products, seasonal drops, or priority inventory

Loops is not limited to outside funding. Retailers can use it to spotlight what matters most on their own menus.

A new revenue lever inside your ecommerce store

Your ecommerce traffic already exists. Loops allows you to:

  • Activate sponsored homepage placements
  • Feature priority SKUs regionally
  • Run seasonal brand promotions
  • Create elevated visibility for new launches

Instead of passively merchandising products, you introduce structured promotional visibility that can be:

  • Brand-funded
  • Retailer-funded
  • Regionally activated
  • Time-bound

This gives ecommerce operators a new monetization layer without increasing paid acquisition spend.

Clarifying attribution

Loops is a visibility and engagement driver. It increases exposure and traffic to priority products and landing experiences.

Purchases are not directly attributed to Loops engagement.

Instead, Loops should be viewed as:

  • A visibility amplifier
  • A traffic driver
  • A merchandising enhancement tool
  • A co-marketing accelerator

When paired with AIQ Ecommerce reporting, retailers can measure overall campaign lift, traffic trends, and product performance during activation windows — without relying on direct click-to-purchase attribution.

Extend Loops into Terpli placements

Loops can also extend beyond static menu placements.

When integrated alongside Terpli, AIQ’s AI Sales Agent, retailers can increase visibility for specific SKUs within AI-driven product discovery environments.

This allows brands or retailers to:

  • Elevate priority products during recommendation flows
  • Align visibility with high-intent browsing moments
  • Support regional campaigns with dynamic exposure

Because Terpli influences product discovery at the moment of decision, pairing it with Loops enhances exposure where conversion likelihood is strongest.

Again, this is not direct purchase attribution, it is amplified discovery.

Drive traffic to campaign landing pages

Loops placements can also direct shoppers to:

  • Promotional campaign landing pages
  • Brand story pages
  • Limited-time product drops
  • Exclusive regional launches

When used alongside AIQ Campaigns and segmentation tools:

  • Loops drives visibility
  • Landing pages capture engagement
  • Campaigns nurture follow-up
  • Loyalty drives repeat behavior

Your ecommerce slots become entry points into lifecycle marketing, not just isolated product listings.

Regional targeting unlocks scale

Loops now operates with regional targeting as the default structure. This allows:

  • Multi-store coordination
  • Broader brand campaigns
  • Consistent promotional coverage
  • Scalable co-marketing activation

Retailer-specific campaigns are still available upon request, but regional execution enables stronger brand participation and cleaner rollout across markets.

For multi-location operators, this introduces structured promotion across entire regions without manually merchandising each storefront.

Why this matters for AIQ Ecommerce customers

If you are already using AIQ Ecommerce, you control:

  • Your menu
  • Your digital storefront
  • Your first-party customer data
  • Your loyalty engine
  • Your campaign infrastructure

Loops layers a promotional activation engine on top of that control.

It gives you:

  • New revenue opportunities
  • Stronger brand relationships
  • Better regional coordination
  • Enhanced product visibility
  • A way to promote your own strategic priorities

This transforms ecommerce from a purely transactional channel into a promotional growth engine.

Ecommerce is not just checkout

Your ecommerce experience is high-intent real estate.

With Loops, you can:

  • Monetize attention
  • Amplify discovery
  • Promote priority inventory
  • Activate regional campaigns
  • Support brand partnerships
  • Drive traffic into broader marketing flows

For AIQ Ecommerce customers, Loops is not an add-on. It is a strategic lever.

If you already own the traffic, the next step is simple:

Activate it.
