New ‘check in for cash’ app is launched

June 14 2011, No Comments

iphoneA new app has launched today which rewards users with cash and exclusive money saving offers just for checking in to certain high street stores and restaurants.

The UK’s first check in for cash tool, the Quidco Mobile app, provides the user with all of the money saving offers available nearby including vouchers, bar code vouchers and in store cashback deals.  It also presents cash incentives and bigger offers for users who enter certain restaurants and high street stores and check in.

Companies already signed up to offer exclusive deals and savings via the Quidco Mobile app include high street retailers such as Debenhams, restaurants and cafés such as Yo Sushi and Esquires Coffee, as well as gyms and travel agents Flight Centre.

Typical cash offers available right now include:

  • 25p reward for checking in at Barracuda bars on Friday 3 – Sunday 5 June
  • 25p reward for checking in to Gap on Saturday 4 June and Sunday 5 June only
  • 25p reward for checking in to Debenhams on Saturday 4 June and Sunday 5 June only
  • 25p reward for checking in and reviewing offers at Carphone Warehouse stores
  • 25p reward for checking in and reviewing offers at T-Mobile
  • 20p reward for checking in and reviewing offers at Halfords
  • 15p reward for checking in and reviewing offers at Majestic Wine
  • 10p reward for checking in and reviewing offers at New Look
  • 10p reward for checking in and reviewing offers at Thorntons

There are also exclusive offer check ins at:

  • New Look
  • Majestic Wine
  • Hotel Chocolat
  • Crabtree & Evelyn
  • Charles Tyrwhitt
  • Old English Inns
  • Crepe Affair
  • Flight Centre

Created by the UK’s largest cashback and voucher codes website, the Quidco app displays the offers available to users when they are out and about.  Instant discounts are available by showing the voucher code or bar code on the iPhone screen at the point of sale, and in store cashback is achieved by registering a debit or credit card on the app (or Quidco website) and using it to pay in store.

The check in function, which is currently available in over 12,000 locations in the UK, rewards users with cash or bigger offers than previously shown when selected while inside the store or restaurant.  The cash is paid into the user’s Quidco account and can be withdrawn twice monthly.

If you’d like to spend a little less money at the pub or shops, the Quidco Mobile app is for you.  Not only does it stop you having to print off and carry around countless store or restaurant vouchers, but it also rewards you with cash and big exclusive offers in return for checking in to certain locations.

The Quidco Mobile app is available to download for free from the App store from today.
