TRAPO, Malaysia's automotive accessories brand, has teamed up with the partnership management company, impact.com, to boost its digital footprint in the market.

This move is part of a strategic drive by TRAPO to bolster its affiliate marketing initiatives and solidify its position as a dominant force in Malaysia's car accessories sector.

Like many sectors during the pandemic, automotive businesses in Malaysia have increasingly moved towards e-commerce, a trend fueled by improvements in the Malaysian economy. This includes the online sale of maintenance parts ranging from mats and wiper blades to tires, filters, and brake pads.

TRAPO, touted as the ultimate one-stop solution for all car accessory requirements, is leading this digital transition by expediting its e-commerce growth through scalable affiliate partnerships across its online platforms.

The collaboration with impact.com is intended to enhance TRAPO's affiliate marketing procedures, from tracking and commission flexibility to the establishment of direct affiliations. TRAPO strives to extend its reach and boost sales by working with diverse partners across the board, engaging in everything from listicle creation and reviews to price comparisons. In addition, it aims to increase content creation and exposure through media outlets and online directories.

Ionut Danifeld, Chief Marketing Officer of TRAPO, commented on the collaboration with impact.com: "We're excited to join forces with impact.com to elevate our affiliate channel initiatives, aiming to collaborate with a broader spectrum of partners. We firmly believe that this stands as a cornerstone for the unprecedented growth of our business and brand.
