Google has acquired The Dealmap. In a blog post to declare the Google deal, the company stated
“We believe Google provides the ideal platform to help us accelerate our growth and fulfill our mission. We’re passionate about helping people save money while having great local experiences, and in Google we’ve found the perfect partner that shares this passion, as well as our vision and strategy. We believe that joining Google will help us innovate in new and unexplored areas of commerce.”
The Dealmap is a deals source for people to find and share the best local deals, all in one place. The company indexes local deals from over 450 unique sources, including national brands, daily deal websites, local businesses and consumers, and makes previously hard-to-find deals easily discoverable. The company also offers an API that lets third-party developers build on top of the current offerings.
