The addition of this integration helps solidify Valpak as a leader in mobile couponing and shows Valpak's ongoing commitment to be on the forefront of technology.

"By integrating with the Samsung Wallet technologies, Valpak can deliver a simple experience for consumers to save time and money at local merchants right from their phone," said Michael Vivio, president of Cox Target Media, provider of Valpak.

The Samsung Wallet lets users to manage their offers, tickets and loyalty points, and gives users access to their purchased tickets easily, including airline boarding passes, event tickets and grocery membership cards.

Two great features of the Samsung Wallet are alerts are sent when a customer is within close proximity to a business, and notification is sent when the coupon is about to expire. Not only is that different than other wallets, but this feature can be turned on or off by the user.

"The Samsung Wallet allows consumers to curate their own experience," said Vivio. "Everything in your wallet is personalized for you, by you. It makes it exceptionally easy to use your coupons."
