✎ Corrected 27 Aug 2026 Publication date recorded for 4 sources. What changed →
A personalised web and mobile portal for Tel Aviv-Yafo residents: DigiTel has tailored municipal alerts, event listings and discounts to each resident's neighbourhood and life stage since 2013. It anchored the city's 'World's Smartest City' win at the 2014 Smart City Expo, and by 2021 counted over 260,000 registered residents — Israel's largest municipal customer club.
what does this mean?
The strongest source is the operator's or the city's own reporting — an official report, dataset or press release. It grades who did the looking — not how well the project went. All four grades →📊 Impact
Over 260,000 residents registered by 2021 (up from 206,000+ in 2019), per the operator — Israel's largest municipal customer club of its kind.
🎓 Lesson
The only number this entry can give is registrations, and the city's own word for what it built is the honest one: a customer club. Residents sign up because the card carries discounts and event access, which makes take-up easy to grow and impossible to read as satisfaction with the city. Nothing published says how many of the 260,000 open an alert, use a discount or renew — and a municipal loyalty programme has the same problem as a commercial one: once the discounts are the reason to join, they are also the reason to stay, and the city has to keep paying for them. The 2014 'World's Smartest City' title is an award from a trade expo, not an assessment of the service.
