Krea Digital

What Krea Digital does

Krea Digital is a private Turkey-headquartered omnichannel marketing technology company, incorporated in 2016 with operational roots dating to 2009-2010, that provides enterprises with an integrated platform spanning bulk email, SMS/MMS, web push, web content, and survey channels managed from a single dashboard. Its core technology stack is anchored by a proprietary MTA (Mail Transfer Agent) built on open-source foundations, with filed-pending patents covering Server-On-Demand elastic scaling (up to 500 servers, 50M+ messages/hour theoretical capacity) and full queue management, deployed across three owned Tier 3 data centers in Turkey with KVKK-compliant data residency options. The platform differentiates via ODBC-level direct database access, Google CDN-backed geofenced content delivery, and an AI-powered anonymous visitor identification system claimed to recognize up to 50% of pre-login site visitors.

The company monetizes through an annual enterprise subscription for platform access, usage-based fees for messaging volume, and professional services covering email template design, HTML coding, video production, survey creation, and customer coaching. Its 1-to-1 customer coaching model is positioned as an industry first. The go-to-market combines a self-serve demo with direct enterprise sales, supported by regional offices in New York and London alongside the Besiktas, Turkey headquarters. The customer base spans 300+ organizations across hospitality (Radisson), telecommunications (Turkcell), retail (Boyner, Desa), aviation (TAV Group entities), F&B (Danone/Milupa), real estate (Sinpaş), education (Bilgi University, Doğa Okulları, Darüşşafaka), and nonprofit (AÇEV) segments, with cumulative volume of 3 billion+ emails over the past five years. The company is bootstrapped with no disclosed external funding, operates with 11-50 employees, and runs under a holding structure anchored by co-founders Seda Ferik and Aycan Ferik.
