About Gesund.de

With nearly one million app downloads, Gesund.de is at the forefront of digital healthcare in Germany, empowering users to manage their health securely and efficiently.

Why Insider?

Gesund.de selected Insider for its ability to unify omnichannel engagement—including app, email, push, WhatsApp, and SMS—within a single platform. Insider’s flexible APIs and expert support enabled rapid integration with Gesund.de’s app, CRM, and e-prescription systems. The onboarding team accelerated time-to-value, helping Gesund.de launch their first journeys in just 7 weeks and immediately realize measurable improvements in patient engagement and retention.

USE CASE #1

Driving Early Engagement with a Personalized Welcome Journey

The challenge

New users often struggled to understand the full value of Gesund.de, resulting in low early engagement and missed opportunities for long-term loyalty. In the health app vertical, this challenge is amplified, as users may feel overwhelmed by digital healthcare features or uncertain about data privacy and app reliability. Without clear onboarding and education, users are less likely to adopt key features—impacting both their health outcomes and the platform’s ability to build lasting trust.

The solution

Insider’s Architect enabled Gesund.de to deliver a personalized Welcome Journey immediately after registration. Emails educated users on app benefits and navigation, using behavioral triggers and AI-optimized send times. No incentives were used—only value-driven messaging to foster trust and organic engagement.

USE CASE #2

Boosting Prescription Adherence with
E-Prescription Reminders

The challenge

Chronic patients frequently missed timely prescription refills, leading to poor app engagement and increased risk of churn. In the health app vertical, missed refills can have serious consequences—not only for user retention but also for patient health outcomes and long-term trust in the platform. Without timely reminders and personalized support, patients are more likely to disengage, seek alternatives, or experience lapses in their medication routines.

The solution

By analyzing app and CRM data, Insider identified chronic users and triggered hyper-relevant push notification journeys based on each patient’s prescription patterns. These reminders were delivered at the exact right time to meet patient needs, ensuring users received timely prompts when they were most likely to take action.

This approach not only reinforced the value of the Gesund.de app but also increased patient loyalty by providing proactive, personalized support throughout the prescription lifecycle.

USE CASE #3

Winning Back Inactive Users with Automated Incentives

The challenge

Many previously active users had become inactive over the past 6 months, risking long-term churn. In the highly competitive health app vertical, losing engaged users not only impacts growth but also undermines the app’s mission to support ongoing patient health and medication adherence. Traditional reactivation methods were time-consuming and often failed to deliver the personalized experiences needed to motivate health-conscious users to return to the platform.

The solution

Gesund.de launched a reactivation email campaign using Insider’s platform integrated seamlessly with the TailerOne API. This enabled automated personalization at scale, allowing each lapsed user to receive a unique, relevant coupon code without manual processing. The entire process required minimal development involvement, making it easy for the team to re-engage lapsed users efficiently and effectively.

USE CASE #4

Increasing App Engagement with Always-On Push Retargeting

The challenge

Earlier push campaigns suffered from limited engagement, as content and timing were not yet optimized for user preferences. In the health app vertical, generic or poorly timed notifications can quickly lead to notification fatigue, causing users to ignore important updates or even disable push permissions altogether. This not only reduces opportunities for timely health interventions but also makes it harder to maintain consistent user engagement and support ongoing patient needs.

The solution

With Insider, Gesund.de was able to create personalized app push notifications using dynamic content, emojis, and optimal send times—powered by Insider’s AI. This approach ensured each message was both relevant and engaging, tailored to individual user behaviors and preferences. Improved timing and relevance led to significant uplift in engagement rates and user satisfaction. The new strategy was implemented as part of the initial go-live, enabling Gesund.de to see results within just 7 weeks.

The team rapidly improved patient onboarding, prescription adherence, and user reactivation, all while minimizing manual effort and accelerating time-to-value.

Looking ahead

Gesund.de plans to deepen hyper-personalization and expand into conversational CX with AgentOne, further enhancing patient engagement and support across channels.
