JupiterResearch Finds Encouraging Signs of Consumer Interest in Mobile Coupons

Coupons Delivered to Cell Phones Offer Unique Benefits to Advertisers

JupiterResearch, a leading authority on the impact of the Internet and emerging consumer technologies on business, has found that consumer adoption of mobile coupons is minimal, but interest is high enough to justify adding them to the advertising mix. Among several findings detailed in a new report, “Mobile Coupons: Are Consumers Ready to Clip Coupons on Cell Phones?,” JupiterResearch has also found that of advertisers utilizing mobile marketing, 37 percent are doing so to increase short-term product sales.

“Twenty-four percent of cell phone owners are interested in receiving special offers and coupons on their cell phones, yet barely one percent of cell phone owners have used text messaging for the purposes of obtaining a coupon or discount,” said Julie Ask, Research Director at JupiterResearch. “Cell phones offer advertisers the opportunity to serve highly targeted, just-in-time coupons to their customers, but opt-in requirements require a mindset that more closely resembles e-mail marketing than traditional coupons.”

Utilizing cell phones as a platform to reach consumers with mobile coupons offer many benefits to advertisers including notification of time-of-day and day-of-week redemption, instant delivery, geo-targeting, time-of-day targeting, forward-to-a-friend features, higher redemption rates due to stringent opt-in requirements, and a buzz factor given the newness of the medium.

“Marketers are beginning to add digital coupons delivered to cell phones into their advertising mix to leverage the benefits offered by a connected and personalized device,” said David Schatsky, President of JupiterKagan. “Small ticket items or spot purchases, along with high value coupons, offer the best near-term opportunities for these marketers.”
