About

Ooredoo Algeria partnered with Arimac Digital to create a digital ecosystem with a clear objective: engage a digitally native Gen Z audience through a unified, personalized, and experience-led digital platform.

The transformation centered on 'My Ooredoo', a next-generation, all-in-one mobile application that brought together self-care, youth engagement, and lifestyle services into a single experience for all users. By combining, gamified interactions, and customer-centric campaigns, the platform evolved Ooredoo's digital presence beyond traditional telecom services.

With entertainment, utilities, and self-care capabilities housed in one app, Ooredoo Algeria positioned itself as a digital lifestyle brand embedded into customers' everyday lives. For the business, My Ooredoo became a scalable digital channel to drive engagement, accelerate campaigns, and generate deeper insights into customer behavior.

Challenges

Before the digital revamp, Ooredoo Algeria faced several structural and engagement challenges common to telecom operators targeting younger, experience-driven audiences:

• Gen Z engagement gap Existing digital channels lacked relevance, interactivity, and personalization.
• Fragmented applications The youth-focused Yooz app and the self-care app operated separately, diluting adoption.
• Disconnected digital platforms Self-care web, self-care app, and corporate website required a full digital refresh.
• Limited personalization Static campaigns reduced engagement and repeat usage.
• Operational inefficiencies Manual campaign execution slowed time-to-market.
• Rising digital expectations Customers expected instant access, intuitive journeys, and always-on support.

These challenges highlighted the need for a one-app strategy built around customer behavior, preferences, and lifecycle needs.
