Already 84% Rise In 3 Weeks

Just from the period between September 1st-21st, Offers already made in increase of 84% in revenue- From $265 thousands in August to $488 thousands in the first 3 weeks of September. If we factorize it furthermore, 45% increase came from existing markets and 39% came from new markets.

Although It is still very far from the Groupon $121 million monthly revenue and LivingSocial $45 million (data from this report), it is important to remember that Offers isn’t distributed widely as the other daily deals services yet, both locally and globally.
