ICQ and Mamboo Develop API for New Collaboration-ICQ Love- to Allow One-Click Registration
LONDON, November 30, 2011/PRNewswire/ --
ICQ has joined forces with Mamboo.com [http://mamboo.com ]. The result is ICQ Love -
taking social dating to a new level.
With over 42m active users, ICQ is the world's largest online communications
community. They've now launched ICQ Love - thanks to a collaboration with Mamboo.com.
love.icq.com [http://love.icq.com ] offers opportunities to find that special someone
in a unique environment. Unlike traditional dating sites, ICQ Love promotes 'Social
Dating' - a concept coined by Mamboo.com.
It provides a chance to meet new people through existing online friends. Mamboo's
concept ensures users already share similar interests and have similar friends.
Mamboo have over 415,000 members in North America and Europe. Chief Operating Officer,
Gloria Diaz (Chief Matchmaker!), explains how the partnership works:
"ICQ Love is a white label project. Mamboo provides the technology, moderation,
support and design to ICQ for free and in return we have a generous revenue share. We've
developed a custom Mamboo-ICQ API, which registers users with one click. This also allows
ICQ Love members to connect with users registered through Mamboo.com's site" says Gloria.
This cross-platform integration allows ICQ users to chat directly with Mamboo users -
providing seamless integration. The partnership also includes the promotion of Mamboo on
ICQ.com and through their Desktop Messenger.
While this collaboration is a worlds-first in terms of user numbers, it's not the
'first date' for Mamboo. The company offers white label services to websites looking to
increase traffic and turnover.
In the mean time, ICQ and Mamboo look forward to many romantic strolls along virtual
beaches, snuggling up in secluded corners of the Web and perhaps even the odd bit of cyber
action.
