Perkspotting A Discount Sharing App

We all Love discounts didn’t we.  There are thousands of apps and sites are available where you find discount coupon codes and links. This is the usual thing that we do online. In this post, we are going to tell about a site which works as discount sharing app. This is brand new concept and we going to tell you everything about that. Before we jump into this, let me first introduce about this app.

Introduction

Perkspotting is a UK based company headquartered in London that offers peer to peer discounts. It is a  place where people not only swap discounts and save money, but also discuss and get help about the products that they want to buy from the true insiders and ambassadors. It is a great opportunity for those who are looking for an entirely new concept of shopping and networking.

How Perkspotting was born, the Story

When Marta Blocka, founder and CEO of Perkspotting, worked for Apple, Tommy Hilfiger, CK, and Patagonia, for over 10 years, she has discovered a viral and repeating trend: discount swapping.

She and her colleagues with access to employee discounts on products (17% off on Apple, 40% off on TH and CK or 60% off on Patagonia) shared them with their network of friends.

The problem was: either all her friends had Apple products already, or she couldn’t use all her benefits to the fullest. So she swapped her discounts with friends from other companies, and this enabled her to shop for things she wanted in exchange for a discount she wasn’t using. A win-win situation, but still only limited to her network of friends.

10 years ago it would not be possible to reach out to a broader network of peers, but now, when sharing economy become so popular and companies like Airbnb and Uber broke the ice, she has decided to introduce this trend in the retail sector.

Investing her life savings and completing seed round among business angels and friends, she quit her job and moved to Warsaw, where she researched and developed the concept together with Maciek Bielicki (COO) and Adam Kozlowski (CTO). Together they build the prototype and in less than 2 months over 500 people signed up to the platform sharing their available discounts with other users!

Marta, Maciej, and Adam are now developing Perkspotting 1.0 which will introduce many cool new features and are planning to launch in Spring 2019.
