DiscountVouchers.co.uk Jumps Into Booming Group Buys Market
Online voucher experts join with new partner to expand into busy daily deals sector.
November 28, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ - DiscountVouchers.co.uk, the popular online money-saving website, is joining the booming daily deals market with its new partner NimbleCommerce.
Tapping into their existing member base of more than 5 million, DiscountVouchers.co.uk is ready to offer users daily deals centred around their geographical location and their interests. A number of American firms are already enjoying success in the UK group buys market, but DiscountVouchers.co.uk is confident its vast experience and huge user base will give it an advantage. To view the latest group deals visit Deals.DiscountVouchers.co.uk.
CEO of DiscountVouchers.co.uk, Gerard Doyle, will lead the group buys team. Over 150,000 people log into the DiscountVouchers.co.uk website every day, making it one of the internet's fastest growing sites for retail deals.
Commenting on the new project, Gerard Doyle says: "After years of establishing ourselves in the voucher market, the natural move for us now is to add group buys to our platform of services. Our clients already come to us for amazing deals, so adding group buys to the mix simple gives them more options."
"American customers have been enjoying a healthy selection of daily deal websites for years now, but the UK market still has plenty of room to grow. We see NimbleCommerce more as a collaborative partner than a software vendor. Their solid track record of e-commerce around the globe is the perfect complement to our existing position in the UK discount voucher sector. Together, we will be a force to be reckoned with," Doyle adds.
NimbleCommerce is an expert in e-commerce technology and group buys, offering diverse means of generating transactions via social networking sites, mobile and search technology. They are building the software platform for DiscountVouchers.co.uk's new daily deals service.
Doyle continues: "NimbleCommerce has shown us that they are ready to jump head first into the UK group buys market. Their technology, trained staff and localisation will provide the catalyst we need at DV to leap to the top of the British daily deals sector."
"Most newcomers to the UK group deals scene come in without much in the way of backing, knowledge or experience. Our biggest advantage is our mix of a well-established member roster, solid partners, useful data and knowledge of the local area. NimbleCommerce have been doing their end of things well for a long time. This removes much of the guesswork and gives me the confidence that DV's new venture in daily deals will be a roaring success, Doyle comments.
Peter Casey, NimbleCommerce European Sales Director, adds: "Customers aren't the only ones who are set to win with our partnership with DiscountVouchers.co.uk. Merchants who work with us get a revenue guarantee that they will receive payment for every completed deal, regardless of whether the customer shows up to collect their purchase. This is a real rarity in the sector."
"I really believe that DiscountVouchers.co.uk has a fighting chance to emerge at the most popular group buy site in the UK. Between their solid reputation for customer care and 5 million members in their database, they've got a big edge over the others who are crowding into this busy field," says Casey.
DiscountVouchers.co.uk will begin expanding over the next few months, beginning with the regions around Brighton, Birmingham and Newcastle for their first daily deals.
Since DiscountVouchers.co.uk was launched in 2009 the site has helped customers save more than ?3.8 million and has generated revenues in excess of ?25 million in the 12 months to August 2011. At present, the site features more than 500 new offers every day from over 3000 retailers including Marks&Spencer, House of Fraser, Lastminute.com and Sainsbury's.
