In 2010, the company received a $7 million investment from Susquehanna Growth Equity.[3] The company was acquired by Ziff Davis in December 2015.[4]
Consumer research and insights
Offers.com conducts several consumer surveys throughout the year and pairs them with internal user behavior to gain insights on retail shopping trends. The company publishes survey findings on its blog to provide consumers with shopping and savings advice.
Offers.com's data and savings tips have been quoted by national publications such as Time,[5] eMarketer,[6] ABC News and Consumer Reports[7] among others.
This website is a scam and should be avoided. Buyer beware.
