New Feature! Direct Messaging in Proxi

Reach the right people, right from your map.

July 28, 2025

We’re excited to introduce a powerful new way to keep your map participants engaged: Email Messaging, built right into your Proxi Map Studio! No exporting lists, no juggling tools, just direct communication, exactly when and where you need it.

Whether you're hosting a "Best Of" contest, running a Passport event, or managing a crowdsourced local guide, staying in touch with participants is now easier and more effective than ever.

Why We Built It

Until now, if you wanted to follow up with your map users, you had to download data, upload it elsewhere, and cobble together an email. That was time-consuming and often, it meant missed opportunities.

So we brought messaging into Proxi. Now you can:

Send targeted messages to your map users

Link messages to your map or specific points (like the ones your users manage!)

Keep engagement high and participation strong—without extra steps

At Proxi, we're all about activating places and this new feature helps you do just that.

What You Can Do with Proxi Email Messaging

Use email messaging to:

📍 Remind people to check in at their next stop on your Passport map

Nudge voters before your contest closes

💰 Promote sponsors with timely messaging

🎁 Announce updates like new prizes or extended deadlines

🙌 Say thank you after your event wraps up

📣 Promote your next map to an already engaged audience

You’re in control of the message, audience, and timing; no extra platforms required.

Who This Is For

This feature is now available for:

✅ Passport event creators

✅ “Best Of” competition hosts

✅ Scavenger hunt organizers

✅ Crowdsourced guide managers

✅ Lead Generation optimizers 

✅ Gated content creatorsIf you want to boost participation and drive action, this is your tool.

Why It Matters

Great maps get people excited. But consistent engagement? That’s what drives real results.

Proxi’s new direct messaging feature gives you the power to guide, motivate, and activate your audience at key moments all without leaving your map.

Here’s how it helps you make the most of your map:

💥 Boost Participation

Sometimes, people just need a little nudge. Whether it’s a reminder to vote, check in, or complete one more stop, timely emails can dramatically increase completion rates. That means more submissions, more foot traffic, and a better experience for everyone involved.

🧠 Stay Top of Mind

Events and campaigns compete for attention. With direct messaging, you can pop into someone’s inbox at just the right moment to keep your event front and center.

💸 Improve Your ROI

The more people engage, the more value you get from your map. Messaging helps you drive actions that matter like visits to sponsor locations, entries to contests, or ticket sales to upcoming events, turning passive users into active participants.

⏱️ Save Time & Skip the Tech Headaches

No need to export data or switch tools. Keep everything inside Proxi and send messages in minutes, not hours. You can even target specific user types or point managers, making your outreach smarter and more effective.

🔁 Extend the Life of Your Map

Just because your contest or event is over doesn’t mean your map’s value ends. Use email to:

  • Send thank-yous and gather feedback
  • Share results and celebrate winners
  • Invite users to your next big thing
  • Promote other maps or campaigns

Proxi messaging keeps the conversation going—and keeps your audience coming back.

👀 Coming Soon: SMS Messaging

Email is just the beginning. We’re working on SMS messaging, so you can reach people via their most-checked inbox: text.

Stay tuned! Text-based nudges and updates are right around the corner.
