Mobile First: The Lebanese Market Is Already There

According to DataReportal, over 88% of internet users in Lebanon access the web via mobile devices. This makes mobile-first experiences — like apps — more than just a luxury.

"Users spend 90% of their mobile time on apps, not browsers." — eMarketer

Why Not Just a Website?

Websites are great for visibility, but apps excel at:

Repeat usage through push notifications
Faster performance than mobile browsers
Offline access to basic features

An app enhances user experience for returning customers, members, or regular buyers.

Benefits of Integrating the App with Your Website

Centralized Data Management

When your app pulls from the same backend as your website (e.g. WordPress, WooCommerce, Odoo), you don’t need to update content twice.

Let users browse on mobile, build a cart, and check out without friction. Apps simplify this journey with fewer distractions.

Seamless Shopping & Ordering

Loyalty & Engagement

Reward repeat visits with points, referrals, or app-only promotions that show directly on the app screen.

Use Cases for Lebanese Businesses

Restaurants

Let customers check the daily menu, book a table, and track their delivery in one place. Push notifications can remind users of meal deals or happy hours, increasing repeat visits and order frequency.

Retail

Showcase new arrivals through app notifications, allow users to preview products in a smooth, fast UI, and drive retention with digital loyalty programs and exclusive in-app discounts.

Service Providers

Enable customers to book appointments on the go, view service history, submit service requests, and securely make payments — all through an app interface that syncs with your main system.
