Urban Airship

Urban Airship provides an easy, affordable way for mobile publishers and developers to deliver real-time push notifications and in-app purchase content to their app users on multiple platforms.

Urban Airship provides a scalable infrastructure and easy-to-integrate tools that solve two main problems for app publishers: keeping their apps in use and earning recurring revenue from their apps. Push notifications keep uses engaged, enhance the app brand and connect with mobile devices, even when the app is not open. In-app purchase provides an easy way for app publishers to rapidly monetize their apps and continue to earn revenue from existing apps.

Instead of having to build a required cloud infrastructure to support this functionality, businesses and publishers can offload this burden onto Urban Airship.
