Very Cool Mobile Coupon Capability

A company I'd never previously heard of named 'Slyce' has some news of what looks to me like a very cool new mobile coupon capability for retailers.  Offered as a service the customer will be able to scan physical coupons with their phone and use them at checkout.

Here is the story:

Here is a snippet from that piece:

Slyce Inc. (SLC) announced today the launch of a new enterprise level product for retailers: Snap-to-Coupon. The technology, when integrated into a retailer app, enables consumers to snap a photo of any coupon they see from that retailer - whether via newspaper, catalog, or receipt - and instantly generate a mobile-optimized version which can be stored on the retailer's app. The retailer is then able to leverage push notifications to remind the consumers to use the coupon. These reminders can be automatically triggered based on pending expiration dates of coupons or when a consumer is near a physical store.

Happy Reading,

J.W. Gant
