Problem
Consumers often struggle to discover relevant discounts because coupons are scattered across multiple apps and websites, making it time‑consuming to find offers that match their location and interests. Businesses, meanwhile, lack an efficient channel to deliver digital coupons directly to nearby potential customers.
Solution
Coubonga offers a mobile application that aggregates digital coupons from a wide range of Finnish retailers and service providers, presenting them to users based on their current location. Users swipe right to add a coupon to their in‑app wallet or left to discard it, allowing quick curation of personalized offers without installing numerous separate apps. The saved coupons are stored securely in the app’s wallet and can be redeemed at the point of sale, either in‑store or online, via a simple QR code or code entry. For merchants, Coubonga provides a self‑service portal to publish real‑time coupons that are instantly visible to nearby users, enabling targeted promotions and measurable engagement.
