GetSocial claims to be power referrals and in-app communities for more than 100 million users each day.

The company said that Sonic Forces: Speed Battle players who had received invites from its platform had a 43 per cent higher lifetime retention rate than regular players.

“At GetSocial, we know that social behaviour is a key differentiator for successful engagement and retention,” said GetSocial CEO Jeroen Bouwman (pictured).

“Across millions of users, our referral technology is generating hundreds of thousands of viral installs a month, and our customers are seeing incredible increases in retention, sometimes as high as 300 per cent.”
