This spinoff isn’t surprising, as franchisees have complained in the past that Dynamic Yield didn’t deliver the sales boost they expected and that its technology failed to meet expectations. Dynamic Yield was McDonald’s largest acquisition in roughly 20 years.
“The acquisition by Mastercard will strengthen unique, existing synergies across McDonald’s digital engagement experiences currently powered by SessionM and Test & Learn. In addition, McDonald’s plans to further scale and integrate Dynamic Yield’s capabilities globally and across ordering channels,” McDonald’s said in the press release.
