Braze, done right — from integration to incremental revenue
UpStride is a specialist Braze implementation partner. We integrate, migrate, and operate Braze for brands that need lifecycle marketing. We help identify how Braze sits in your stack.
Braze is one of the most powerful Customer Engagement Platforms on the market — and the easiest to underuse
Most accounts run a fraction of available capability: shallow Canvases, weak event taxonomy, missing Catalogs, untracked conversion events
UpStride brings senior, Singapore-based Braze-certified consultants who can unlock the platform you're already paying for.
Braze certified. Partner-led delivery.
Qualified to scope, build and launch Braze independently — strategy and engineering certified, in-house.
UpStride is Braze PLO certified.
Partner-Led Onboarding certification means our team is qualified to lead Braze onboardings end-to-end — taking brands from contract signed to first campaign live. For the brands we work with, that translates to:
One team, strategy to activation
No handoffs, no lost context — the same consultants from kickoff to launch.
Faster time-to-value
Your Braze investment starts paying back sooner, not after a long onboarding queue.
Onboarding by your builders
Done by the same consultants who'll build your lifecycle journeys.
Technical Marketing Expert
The deep end of the platform — data architecture, API integration, Liquid personalisation, Catalogs, and Currents. The certification behind our hands-on builds.

Protect deliverability from day one.
A new sending IP starts with zero reputation. Send too much too fast and inboxes throttle, defer, or block — torching the launch you spent the last few weeks building. UpStride runs a structured IP warming program tied to your go-live plan.
- Multi-week ramp schedule with daily and weekly volume caps tuned to your audience size and engagement profile
- Engaged-segment-first send order to build positive reputation signals fast
- Monitoring across Google Postmaster Tools
- Bounce and complaint thresholds enforced; pacing adjusted weekly based on signal

Common questions.
Are you a Braze partner?
Yes — UpStride consultants are Braze-certified and we work directly with Braze account teams across the region
Can you run our Braze onboarding instead of Braze?
Yes. UpStride is Braze Partner-Led Onboarding (PLO) certified — qualified to lead Braze onboardings end-to-end, from contract signed to first campaign live, with the same consultants who build your lifecycle journeys.
Can you migrate us off other CEP platforms, such as Salesforce Marketing Cloud, Emarsys etc?
Yes. Migration is one of our most common engagements. We map audiences, recreate journey logic in Canvas, parallel-run, and cut over without losing performance continuity.
Do you only build Canvases, or do you do strategy too?
Both. Most engagements include lifecycle strategy, segmentation design, and measurement — rarely just build.
Can you run Braze for us long-term?
Yes. Our managed services model embeds a Braze pod into your team for ongoing build, optimisation, and reporting.
