What the transaction covers
The release describes the acquisition as covering BrandWizard’s customer portfolio. Those customers will transition to the PinMeTo platform and gain a broader product offering, expanded platform partnerships, and enhanced support capabilities. BrandWizard had built an international base of more than 100 multi-location brands, many of them running large networks of physical locations across several regions, with the location-data accuracy and reputation requirements that come with that.
What BrandWizard customers get access to
As part of the transition, incoming customers will gain PinMeTo’s full suite: Listings Management, Reviews and Conversations, Posts, Store Locator and Local Pages, and AI Visibility. The release says they will also benefit from expanded integrations with platforms such as Apple Maps, Bing, Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn, letting brands manage a broader share of their digital presence from a single platform.
The release singles out Places AI, PinMeTo’s intelligence layer, which analyses performance, identifies opportunities, and manages a local footprint across search, maps, social, and AI-driven discovery channels.
“BrandWizard has built strong relationships with its customers and established a reputation for helping brands manage their local digital presence. We are excited to welcome these customers to PinMeTo and provide them with access to our full platform, direct integrations with leading search, map, and social platforms, and our continued investments in AI-powered local marketing technology.”
Henrik Schmidt, CEO of PinMeTo
Why it matters
When a multi-location brand’s vendor changes hands, the practical questions are always the same: what happens to the location data, the publisher integrations, and the support contact. Here the stated answer is a move onto a platform with a broader product offering and expanded publisher integrations, rather than a wind-down. For PinMeTo, the transaction adds customers in MENA and LATAM alongside its European base, and the release puts its reach at more than 1,000 brands operating in over 125 countries.
“We are confident that PinMeTo is the right long-term partner for our customers. Their scale, technology, and commitment to innovation create exciting opportunities for our customers and ensure they will continue to benefit from best-in-class solutions in the years ahead.”
Darya Danilava, Founder of BrandWizard
The bottom line
More than 100 multi-location brands will change platform, and PinMeTo adds reach in MENA and LATAM to a customer base the release puts at more than 1,000 brands in over 125 countries. The full press release carries the complete announcement, the FAQ, and media contacts at both companies.
