Introducing Ratings
Today we’re introducing a few simple tools for rating your Groupon experiences. After you’ve used a Groupon, you now have the option to award or flag a business. If your experience was exceptionally good, give the business an award and we’ll know to feature them again. If it was a disappointment, flag the business. For everything in between, you don’t have to do a thing – we just want to know when things were especially good or bad.
There’s one more cool thing about Groupon ratings – they’re bidirectional, meaning that merchants can rate you too! If you get an award from a business owner, we’ll reward you with G’s to spend on Groupon. Merchants can also flag the rare troublesome customer, so that we can keep an eye on the bad apples and keep the quality of our community high.
We think these ratings tools will help reinforce the foundation of Groupon’s community – great customers and the best local businesses. Watch the following video to learn more.
