  • Yowza!! launches self-service mobile couponing for retailers

0 Comments

Yowza!! has announced the launch of its self-service sign-up option that brings the power of mobile coupons to small businesses that haven't had the opportunity to take advantage of this growing trend. Any restaurant, store or other local business owner can sign up for Yowza!! and offer their customers exclusive coupons and deals the very same day, according to a press release.

"Yowza!! was created as a way to help companies — from national chains with major budgets and thousands of locations to local family-owned retailers with one storefront — bring savings to their customers, and attract new ones, at costs much lower than paper coupons," said Greg Grunberg, co-creator of Yowza!! and star of the television series "Heroes." "With this new self sign-up option, we have taken an important step towards our goal of becoming heroes to not only Wall Street but also Main Street USA. Small businesses who cannot afford the infrastructure to create their own app can easily participate in the mobile coupon revolution."

Retailers, restaurants and other merchants looking to offer consumers special deals can sign up at https://getyowza.com/learn/merchant, list their location and then present their offers to the world in just minutes, from any computer with an Internet connection. Consumers looking for shopping or dining ideas can download Yowza!!, search for deals by location — via city, zip code, or using a mobile device’s GPS functionality to find offers within one, five, 15, 25 or 50 miles from their current location — and retrieve a coupon that can be redeemed in moments.

Cashiers or waiters can scan the barcode or enter the coupon code that appears on the mobile device into the system just like a paper coupon, with no new technology required.

Yowza!! participating retailers pay $49 per location per month, and may change or update offers as often as they’d like with no additional fees (up to three coupons may be offered at a time). Additionally, each small business that signs up using the new self sign-up system will receive a welcome packet that includes easy instructions on how to get the most out of Yowza!!, decals to be placed in storefront windows telling consumers that mobile coupons are accepted, and a simple training guide for cashiers and other staff.
