twitter-offers

Twitter today introduced a new product which will allow users to available discounts through tweets with card-linked promotions. Called Twitter Offers, the claimed discount can then be redeemed at that particular retailer’s online or brick-and-mortar store. Its an easy way to eliminate coupons while giving users the freedom to shop both online and at a physical location.

So what do you have to do in order to avail a discount? If you see a Twitter Offer in your timeline, you need to tap on it to be able to add your debit or credit card in a few easy steps. Once that’s done the discount can be claimed at the retail or online store.

The offer itself is tied to the card so you don’t have to handle any coupons or install or kinds of different apps. Once the purchase is made, cash back savings will automatically appear on the card statement after a couple of days.

Twitter says that the card information will be encrypted and safely stored so that users won’t have to enter those details again when availing another discount. Users will also have the ability to remove card information from their accounts at any time.

Twitter Offers is only being rolled out in the U.S. for now. The company says it will work with a number of brands to bring this new feature to users over the holiday shopping season.
