Local merchants offer "mobile only deals" with one or more reward points. Each reward point is worth 25ยข.
Shoppers earn their points when purchasing the deal at the merchants store.
Shoppers exchange their points for a cash reward. They can select any participating merchant to obtain their cash discount.
Merchants can offer as many deals as they, but only they pay for the points that are awarded to a shopper after a purchase.
ShopMyLocalStores has a demo mode that features four cities in different time zones to demonstrate the ability to schedule the delivery of deals.
Shoppers exploring the demo mode will experience the process of finding and redeeming a deal.
There is a Merchant Login available once the user has selected a local community. The Merchant Login provides for three levels of access for a Merchant to manage their business: Owner, Manager and Employee.
The functions include creating and managing deals, hiring employees, and redeeming the shoppers deals and rewards.
