Coupons are going mobile! Advertisers have made it easier to find discounts when you are on the go. Here is a list of Mobile Coupon Providers that provide some of the best coupons out there.
Keypons are unique in that they are powered by text messaging and social media. It only takes about 2 minutes to create one and you can do it for free. Afterwards, you can promote instantly on Facebook, Twitter and other social media sites. Customers can also text a unique keyword of your choice and get the coupon delivered to their phone. Really simple and cool.
If you have an iPhone or iTouch, than Yowza is the mobile coupon provider for you. Yowza is not a coupon aggregator, they work directly with merchants and retailers. Thus all of their deals are exclusive and only available through Yowza. Their mobile coupons are location-based, so web-based businesses do not qualify. Right now they are only operating in the US, but plan on rolling out to other countries in the near future.
For those of you who do not have an iPhone, don’t worry. MobiQpons distribute coupons on the iPhone, Android and Blackberry. Businesses can create a coupon in minutes on their website and deliver these coupons within 10 miles of their business. Shoppers do not need to print the coupons, instead they can just show the coupon on the phone making MobiQpons ‘green’.

When you search a Google local listing on your mobile phone, a coupon may appear – that is of course if the business added a coupon to their listing in Google’s local business center. Simply present your phone face to the checkout stand and the checker will enter the coupon bar code so you can get the discount.

Groupon is a cool service. Every day in your city they feature something cool to do at a very discounted price (like pole dancing class for half off). The catch is that enough people must take advantage of the offer so everyone can get the discount. Very innovative.
