Voucheroo Helps Australian Shoppers Save All Year RoundSaturday 30th January 2010 | 10:32 AM« Back to Listing
"Voucher and coupon discount codes have proved a huge success with consumers in the UK and the US, and we think it's about time Australian shoppers had the opportunity to share in the benefits they provide," says Jon Williams of Tinterweb PTY Ltd, the company behind Voucheroo. He goes on, "It should be second nature for anyone tempted to make any kind of purchase online to check our site for codes or deals which can often help knock up to 50% off the retail price." Voucheroo is a directory of a huge number of different money saving offers, which can be used by consumers for free. These offers range from online vouchers, coupons and promotional codes, to printable restaurant and food vouchers. Voucheroo also provides a full guide to the major in-store sales with the leading retailers, enabling users to save money, whether through the website or not. Coupons or vouchers are usually released by retailers in the form of alphanumeric codes, which are then entered into the shopping cart by the customer at the time of checkout or purchase, when buying online, or presented at the till when making a purchase at a traditional shop. Whilst these sorts of codes are a new concept to retailers in Australia, they are used extensively overseas to help boost sales in a controlled manner - as they can be limited by time, product or stock levels. Alternatively, if a retailer wants to offer a particular deal at a particular time, they may just send a link to Voucheroo, which, when clicked, automatically entitles the consumer to an exclusive price or discount. The concept behind Voucheroo then, is to benefit not only the consumer, who can save on a wide range of products and services, but also the retailer, who can reach a wider audience and offer promotions on particular goods to attract shoppers to their store or site. The affiliate and voucher code industry in the UK is the second fastest growing online sector and creates tens of millions of pounds worth of additional revenue for retailers as well as saving shoppers millions every year. It is the ultimate win-win arrangement. Tinterweb PTY Ltd was incorporated in Sydney in July 2009 with the aim of bringing value and savings to Australian consumers. Voucheroo.com.au is the first site to be launched by Tinterweb, though there are plans for further sites to follow in 2010.
