How Discount Gift Certificates Work

Buy… Print… Go… Save!

RTownShopper.com displays billboard ads and discount gift certificate offers from the different participating regions. These are not coupon deals, they're even better. With this website you can:

• Buy discount gift certificates for 50% off
• Print the discount gift certificates immediately from your member’s account
• Go to local merchants and redeem your gift certificates
• Save more money than you would with traditional coupon deals

How we can do this

We help local businesses succeed by offering an alternative to traditional advertising and coupon deals. Our system is called Proof of Performance Advertising. It is a model based strictly on trade where no cash is exchanged between your local business and RTownShopper.com. In essence, we work with the age-old system of barter. Each business allows us gift certificates that are sold on RTownShopper.com. The gift certificates are sold at a discounted rate of 50% off and more, passing significant savings down to the consumers, even more savings than with coupons. This is truly a win win:

• The local businesses benefit by new customers coming to try their products/services
• The Consumers benefit from great savings in exchange for supporting local businesses

See About Us for more information on the benefits to local business, consumers and TV / Radio partners.
