The Week at Groupon
One of our affiliates decided to do a spot of offline Groupon promotion this week, leading to plenty of people walking around around Liverpool Street station in green wigs handing out Groupon USB cards – Great work!
We’ve been planning a blogging related affiliate competition for a little while now and it’s coming along nicely, so look out for that within the next week or so too.
New Q&A Page
The FAQ page we set live last week aims to cover the most common questions that our account managers get asked each day, but that’s not to say that it’s a comprehensive list by any means.
With that in mind, we thought it would be a good idea to open up a Q&A post where you can ask us questions in the comments. We’ll aim to replay within 48 hours and if your question is one that would benefit others we’ll pop it onto the FAQ list and credit you for such a useful question.
You can find that Q&A post in the navigation just to the right, or if you’re really lazy, by clicking right here.

Sounds a great idea but what is a Groupon USB card?

Hey Chris.
When people plug it in, it loads up the geo-targeted Groupon homepage via the affiliates tracked link. Great way of reaching new customers and making commission as the cookie is dropped this way too.
