Abstract

See full text

Provided is a method and system for the electronic distribution of coupons to user devices. A repository, such as an online service provider, stores packages of coupon data for downloading on demand. The user may view, select, and sort desired coupons. The user's demographic as well as coupon selection data is provided back to the online service and coupon distributor and issuers for subsequent marketing analysis. The online service can perform subsequent coupon processing on previously downloaded coupon packages such as variation of discount amounts and can also determine how many times a particular coupon was viewed. When coupons are presented at a retail store, the discount is provided to the user. Upon redemption by the store, transaction data is also supplied to the coupon issuers and distributor for integration into marketing analysis.
