Like a cheapskate, I absolutely love the consolidate and LivingSocials of the world even if I know that deeply I only am not really save much because I probably would never to these places in the first place. Again, I love me some transactions and that is why fifty and five service marked for me at the launch conference. This service strives to bring deals resembling gather on your phone using SMS.
The name of five and fifty comes that trafficking should be good for at least 50% off the coast and may not be good for five hours. This is supposed to combat one of the main problems with Group-trafficking can last up to one year but that initial crunch means that certain transactions may be exchanged only months after you purchased.
Five and fifty is primarily intended for the huge market of perishable goods. Say that there is a shop cupcake to street has 200 cupcakes that he wants to get rid. Business owner could just hit the Web site, adapt the deal and a few dollars, interested customers would be able to receive a SMS to a discount. As you can see in the photo above, we were able to catch a free cupcake.
It is an interesting idea, and five and fifty is standing from the crowd by taking as big a cut of the agreement of the restaurant or business. For something like Groupon, it gets 50% of the transaction when the customer buys, but this service will allow the function send hundreds of SMS for only a few dollars.
The service will soon go live in San Francisco and Kansas City, with plans for other cities to come in the weeks and months to come.
