they want to visit, and request a coupon on arrival.

CUSTOMER RECEIVES COUPON
ON ARRIVAL AT THE STORE
• When the customer enters the geofence which surrounds the store, a notification
is sent to their phone.
• For security, a store employee enters a PIN number to redeem the coupon.
• The store processes the customer’s transaction normally, and only pays after a
customer purchase is made. There is no speculative advertising cost.
