Some of the hottest new apps on the iPhone are using location -based information to connect place with social networks. A new money-saving application for the Apple iPhone promises to find consumers savings just by using their location!
Myzerr, a start-up social network for coupons, provides users with the ability to download free online coupons directly to their iPhones.
This application’s handy “Nearby” function shows the user’s location on a map and displays restaurants, retail stores, gyms and other local businesses who have signed up to Myzerr to promote their business. After selecting a business, the app generates a Myzerr iPhone coupon which the user can then show to redeem the discount.
Another useful function for users and businesses is the ability to “share” the coupon on Facebook, Twitter or by email. Myzerr also allows users to form groups to share discounts with friends. With these tools, shopping centers (or any community) can form groups for their local loyalty programs.
“Everyone loves to save,” says Myzerr CEO Slade Sherman. “Now Myzerr takes all the hard work out of it! In effect, the business finds YOU – which is just as it should be. Best of all, the service is completely free, both for you the user and for the business offering the discounts!”
The ability for these businesses to easily set-up their own loyalties programs and provide exclusive discounts to local communities is set to revolutionise the coupon marketing industry.
Sherman says “We are encouraging any small business and franchise chain that understands the benefits of location based services and social media to register, there really is no risk”.
Myzerr Beta can be viewed online at Myzerr.com.
