The company bills itself as a company that lets businesses “build apps for payment cards.” The idea is that you can add a coupon or a promotion directly to your method of payment, meaning that buying a distinct product — or even shopping at a particular store — can trigger an action or discount when done on a specific payment method.” Read the full article on Mashable.
