What makes a professional flipbook catalog?
A flipbook catalog (also known as a flipbook or online page-turn magazine) is the digital evolution of the printed product catalog. Unlike a simple PDF download, a flipbook catalog offers an interactive reading experience: pages are turned, products are directly linked, and catalog views are measured in real time.
The key quality characteristics of a professional flipbook catalog tool:
- Own branding: No tool logo, no third-party advertising – the catalog appears as part of your brand
- GDPR-compliant hosting: Catalog data and visitor tracking in EU data centers
- Interactivity: Clickable product links, videos, forms and shop integration directly in the catalog
- Complete analytics: Which pages are read? Where do visitors drop off?
- Scalability: Works for catalogs with 10 as well as 500 pages
flipaio delivers all of this as a managed service for B2B companies – without IT effort, without learning curve, with personal support.
