Our applications and services for home users are pooled in the Consumer Applications segment.
Under the brands WEB.DE, GMX, and mail.com, we offer a wide range of applications covering personal information management (email, tasks, calendar, contacts), online storage (cloud storage), as well as homepage solutions and office applications tailored to individual users. The applications are largely developed in-house and operated in our company-owned data centers.
Our Consumer Applications are offered as paid subscriptions or as ad-supported free accounts, monetized through online advertising. Marketing is handled by our subsidiary United Internet Media.
With WEB.DE and GMX, we have successfully established ourselves as leading communication and information platforms in the DACH region, with approximately every second private user in Germany using an email account from our brands. mail.com addresses international markets such as the USA, the UK, France, and Spain.
