Joyned and Volunteer World Announce Partnership
Award-winning social revenue innovator Joyned has announced a new agreement with Volunteer World, the leading comparison platform for volunteer programs abroad. The partnership enables those seeking a meaningful travel experience to discuss and plan volunteering trips directly on the Volunteer World website, making the process seamless and collaborative.
Joyned’s AI-based social revenue platform allows people to invite friends and family to discuss and make plans in a private and secure online space directly on the vendor’s site. Elevating the social experience for users, it simultaneously equips vendors with previously unavailable insights into the decision-making process based on group dynamics, conversations, and intent.
With around 1.6 million people worldwide going abroad to volunteer each year, there’s a real need to provide volunteers with a seamless user experience during their search. Pascal Christiaens, CEO of Volunteer World, said the decision to partner with Joyned was a strategic move to amplify the collaborative experience for users, as well as to increase revenue and competitiveness.
“We designed Volunteer World to connect people with the social projects they’ve been dreaming of. We see great value in implementing new and advanced social features for our users, who can now use Joyned to plan their volunteering journeys with friends and family members. As volunteers search and compare opportunities based on their preferences, the data-driven insights we gain at the same time are invaluable for providing them with the best-optimized options,” Christiaens added.
Commenting on the partnership, Michael Levinson, C0-Founder of Joyned, said: “We’re very excited to announce our new partnership with Volunteer World, making international volunteering accessible everywhere from Peru to South Africa. We’re truly honored to be supporting their team in enhancing users’ experience while fulfilling their desire for meaningful travel and worldwide volunteering.”
Sites like Volunteer World can typically achieve 5x their conversion rates and 6x their Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) thanks to Joyned. By leveraging secure and encrypted data-driven insights on sentiment analysis, price perception, and buying intent, they can further enrich their offering with tailored offers and personalized deals. Combined with an improved, more social, and collaborative user experience, this provides them with a competitive edge that would not be possible otherwise.
