NEW YORK, April 27, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- News America Marketing (NAM), the premier promotional marketing services company in the U.S. and Canada, today announced the launch of their Apple Watch savings app, SmartSource In-Store Assistant, intended to simplify and streamline grocery savings and transactions at participating retailers. SmartSource In-Store Assistant is associated with SmartSource Coupons for iOS and will be available for free in the App Store shortly.
SmartSource In-Store Assistant gives users a fast and convenient way to access store loyalty cards and the coupons associated with them. Users can then use their Apple Watch to complete their grocery transaction, with coupons being redeemed through their loyalty card and payment being made through Apple Pay.
"With digital and wearable devices continuing to become an integral part of the way consumers live their lives, we are thrilled to offer a premium product that will make shopping easier and resonate with tech-savvy shoppers," said Marty Garofalo, CEO, News America Marketing.
With SmartSource In-Store Assistant, users will be able to scan their pre-selected store loyalty card at checkout without opening the app. Using Glances, users can easily access their loyalty card to see the coupons associated with it, whether clipped from the SmartSource Coupons app on iOS, on the web at SmartSource.com, or even the retailer's own site. And soon, users will even be able to clip additional coupons and access special in-store offers from their Apple Watch while shopping.
