St. Petersburg, Fla. -- Valpak’s new coupon app for Apple Watch will deliver watch wearers savings in a high-tech way for the traditional coupon-mailer.
The coupon app will be available for download for Apple Watch and will mark an early Apple Watch entry for coupon companies.
“Our commitment to consumers is to give them what they want when they want it. This app is about providing a simple, easy and convenient way for consumers to save,” said Michael Vivio, president of Valpak Direct Marketing Systems, Inc., and Cox Target Media, Inc. “We will be there to do that whether it’s in their mailbox, online, on their phone or on their watch.”
Known for its local coupons in North America, Valpak has also been heavily involved in mobile couponing. It has a mobile app presence in the top mobile operating systems and integration into mobile wallets, including Passbook, Samsung and Google.
“Valpak is there at the launch of the Apple Watch launch, just as we were with the Passbook wallet launch,” said Vivio.
The Valpak app is compatible with Passbook, so coupons can be stored there ahead of time on the phone and will pop up on the watch screen to let consumers know there are savings available nearby on their favorite shops and services.
With the convenience of the new Apple Watch, consumers can now access coupons for stores and services within a 25-mile radius. “It’s simple, smart and intuitive with minimal navigation,” said Vivio. All the Valpak offers that are on the Valpak smart phone apps, as well as Valpak.com, will also be available on the watch app.
