“Consumers are using their smartphones more while they’re shopping, and mobile coupon usage is growing as a result,” said Bill Ogle, CEO of Koupon Media. “In 2015 we doubled the number of coupons delivered on our platform. The fact is mobile coupons are easier to use than paper or print-at-home coupons and more retailers accept them than ever before. It won’t be long before the mobile coupon outpaces paper coupons altogether.”
The redemption data in the report focuses on c-stores, a vertical that is showing some of the largest growth in all of retail. Data in the report points to energy drinks, soda, and juice as the highest redeeming categories for mobile coupons.
According to the report, the number of offers delivered by Koupon Media doubled in 2015 bringing the total number to more than 500 million. “Depending on the category, we are seeing redemption rates at over ten times the average of a paper coupon,” said Charlie Lang, VP of Product and Research for Koupon Media. “Mobile coupon redemption is driving double digit sales growth for brands and retailers during a campaign versus pre-campaign sales. This clear demonstration of ROI is why some of the world’s largest brands and retailers use our platform for mobile campaigns.”
