Introducing OfferMe Credit: Getting Bigger Online Bargains on Group Buy

My name is Bekim and I'm part of OfferMe's marketing team. I've got to be honest, I really enjoy my job and not just because of the City views from my computer. A good part of the reason I like my job is because I really am a strong believer of what we here at OfferMe have to offer. OfferMe is the future. With our features, including Group Buy, OfferMe will change the way you shop for online bargains. At OfferMe, you request what you want and let the sellers find you. Rather than you looking all day for the best prices, they come to you. There's no auctioning, no bidding; OfferMe's just a platform where you and the sellers can interact.



I'll give you a real example: I'm after a new DVD player but, like most people, I don't have the time, nor the energy, to go from shop to shop looking for the best price. And while online shopping seems easier, with the amount of people out there hocking dud stuff, it's just as frustrating. So instead I've simply put in a request for a DVD player on OfferMe and will now sit back and let the sellers find me. When one of our registered and approved sellers sends me an offer, I can either choose to accept his quote or - the best bit - haggle for a cheaper price. And it's all at no cost, OfferMe doesn't charge any membership fees. The only time I'll pay is if I agree on something with a seller.

Another feature that we have is 'Group Buy'. It's a platform where individuals can group together to create an advantage where everyone involved benefits. Similar to bulk buying, buyers from across Australia are able to purchase products at a lower price than what would have been achievable had they purchased on their own. With factory outlets and direct wholesalers becoming so popular nowadays, OfferMe Group Buy essentially delivers the same thing, to your computer. The best part is that you don't have to round up and beg your friends to join in. The deal is available to all OfferMe users, so all you have to do is make sure you don't miss out!

OfferMe Credit – Available on Group Buy

Our latest feature, though, is the sugar on top. OfferMe now also offers OfferMe Credit which can be used as currency on only on our site. The credit can be payable on any deal – including Group Buy deals – which feature the OfferMe Credit logo. It even includes payment on shipping and handling.


It basically works like this...

OfferMe Credit in Cash...
Group Buy Price = $49.99
OfferMe Credit = $3.00
The amount to be paid = $46.99 + S/H

OfferMe Credit in Percentage...
Group Buy Price = $49.99
OfferMe Credit = 5% (5% is $49.99 = $2.5)
The amount to be paid = $47.49 + S/H

The amount is automatically calculated for you when you click on the 'I Want to buy' button!

And, you can score up $30 in OfferMe Credit the day you register. Simply register your mobile and you'll receive a $30 OfferMe Credit Bonus in your account, absolutely free. Also, it's important we mention that mobile number registration is only done for security & validity purposes. We do not, in anyway, text or call you unnecessarily. It simply helps us in keeping your online shopping experience safe.

Right now you can $5 of OfferMe Credit on our Group Buy item, the Nokia Bluetooth headset. That'll bring the full price of the headset down to $21.50. Check it out

And when you're done that, I dare you to comeback and tell me that my job isn't great!
