Consumers Download Coupons to Loyalty Cards

Here’s a new way to get customers in your doors, especially during the slower months - digital coupons. Supermarket chains are encouraging customers to download discounts posted at their websites onto their loyalty cards. The customer registers to have the discount applied to their card, then it is applied automatically during checkout when the product is purchased by the special’s expiration date. The convenience is catching on with consumers. "You don’t have to waste your time going through all those little pieces of paper in your purse," Carol Hoffman of Covington, KY, tells the Associated Press. Something to think about: This newest way of offering discounts could be especially popular among computer-savvy Gen X and Gen Y consumers.
