If you want to understand the true value that a product and service offers, simply ask their customer. ABC News interviewed a Key Ring user at a grocery store and she shared her experience with using our app/platform.

Key Ring is in a unique position in that we have two customers – consumers and retailers. Our goal has always been to connect the two together in way that makes sense for both parties. In my opinion this video does a great job showcasing a real world example of how Key Ring is being used to connect retailers and consumers together in a meaningful way. Like most press we receive, we had no idea this was coming out, but I wanted to share this as testament of value Key Ring is bringing to the marketplace. Hopefully you enjoyed it and are as excited about the future of mobile commerce as we are!

We’re excited to release a new feature today – map view for joinable programs.  It’s a simple yet powerful feature.  Our intent is to provide more perspective regarding programs that are located near your current location.  Think of it as a new way to explore for joinable programs rather than scrolling through a simple list.  Once you select the retailer you’ll be taken directly to the simple enrollment form.  Hope you like it!

We were pleasantly surprised to see Key Ring featured in the Oct edition of Entrepreneur Magazine.  The title of the article being “Ditch the Cards”.  No doubt we’re heading to a cardless / mobile wallet society.  Considering Key Ring already has millions of users, it’s quite obvious consumers are tired of the plastic.  We’re just getting started and are looking forward to further driving innovation in this space.
