Amazon is launching a neat campaign to promote its Price Check mobile application. This Saturday (December 10th), the online retailer will give shoppers an added incentive to check the Amazon price on their mobile phone while in a physical retail store.
Using the Price Check by Amazon app (available on iPhone and Android) while shopping in physical retail stores, customers will get an additional discount of 5% (up to $5) off Amazon’s price on up to three qualifying products. Not all products are eligible though — only the following categories are included under this scheme: electronics, toys, music, sporting goods and DVDs.
All said, Amazon anticipates December 10th will be one of the biggest days of the year for Price Check.
Finally, the announcement ends with a reminder that shoppers can also use Price Check to submit in-store prices, allowing all Amazon customers get the lowest prices year-round.
