Verizon teamed with Cellfire to offer a free digital coupon service for its wireless and FiOS
TV customers, callled Spend Smart
coupons. These coupons are sent to a smartphone or cell phone, then you show the coupon to the cashier at the store.
To
register, customers need to provide their shoppers club or loyalty club
numbers from participating grocery stores, then will be able to view,
save and use the coupons that are currently available for that
retailer. There's no more fumbling for paper coupons, as Spend Smart
users simply present their loyalty cards at the register. If they have
an item with an associated coupon in their cart, the discount is
automatically applied to their bill.
Verizon's
Spend Smart coupons cover a wide range of products on customers'
shopping lists and can be used at more than 4,000 locations of more
than 20 grocery chains nationwide, including ShopRite, Safeway and
Kroger. Coupon brands and products rotate every two weeks, with more
than $25 in monthly grocery discounts available at any given time.
Register and Use Spend Smart Coupons
It's
simple for customers to sign up for Spend Smart coupons on Verizon's
three screens: Verizon Wireless Mobile Web under the Shopping channel,
Verizon FiOS Internet in the Entertainment and Apps channel, and
through FiOS TV's Widget Bazaar Applications Marketplace.
When customers sign up on one of these services, the information is
automatically synched to the other two, allowing them to view and use
coupons on each platform.
Spend
Smart can be found on wireless phones featuring Mobile Web. There is
no cost to register or use the service, but data or megabyte charges
may apply when accessing Mobile Web. For more information on Spend
Smart coupons, visit www.vzspendsmart.com.
If you don't have Verizon phone, it looks like you can get coupons directly through Cellfire for major supermarket chains.
