Locally developed cashback app hits 130,000 downloads
SNAPnSAVE, a Cape Town based start-up that gives shoppers cash back on everyday shopping items, simply for snapping their till slip, has grown to 130,000 users and paid back over R500,000 in cash.
It has gained its rapid success organically, without massive marketing campaigns, which can be attributed to its simplicity. Users purchase featured items from any major retailer and then get cash back by snapping a photo of their till slip.
The success is a testament that South Africans are looking for ways to help ease the burden on already overstretched wallets. Mark Bradshaw, SnapnSave CEO says, “Mobile coupons are booming in South Africa. Unlike some of the big loyalty programmes, the benefit with this app is that shoppers can save no matter where they shop.”
The app has been ranked the #1 shopping app in the Apple store and the #1 lifestyle app in Google Play Store.
At the end of each month when debit orders are flying out of bank accounts, the app tries to ease the burden with its ‘Money Makers’, a list of goods paying up to 70% cashback. This feature has become so popular that happy snappers are often asking in advance what products will be featured and even suggesting their own.
