Vodacom has launched a location-based deals app, Vouchercloud, which will seek out the best deals in SA and deliver them to your smartphone.

The operator has partnered with companies across a range of categories including shopping, eating out, leisure and entertainment.

Partners include Edgars, Jet, Makro, Game, Planet Fitness, Doppio Zero, Nu-metro Cinemas, McDonalds, Adega, Billabong and Pizza E Vino.

According to Hemmanth Singh – managing executive: for m-Commerce at Vodacom – the app will locate all the nearby deals, sift through them and show only deals relevant to users, followed by step by step guidance on how to take advantage.

Vouchercloud uses the built in GPS in smartphones to pinpoint a user’s location, and then searches for all relevant discounting retailers in the vicinity.

The app displays the deals and then guides the customer to the shop’s front door using the smartphone’s digital mapping application.

The voucher is downloaded to the smartphone screen with a single tap, which is shown to the sales assistant in store to redeem the discount.

There is no need to print the voucher, Vodacom said.

“We’re confident you’ll be saving money from day one,” Singh said.

The app is usable on all networks, though Vodacom customers will get exclusive deals.

Vouchercloud is free and available on, iTunes, Blackberry App World and Google Play.
