Telmap launched location-aware restaurant coupons in Israel as part of its Mobile Location Companion. Developed in cooperation with REST, the country’s leading restaurant guide which is also part of the Yellow Pages Israel Group, the new capability allows Navigator GPS+ subscribers of Pelephone Communications to search for a restaurant in their vicinity, either through the single-line search engine, or through the REST-branded widget on the Pelephone Navigator GPS+ widgets carousel.
Once started, the application will return results based on the search criteria and location, with an indication of whether there is a coupon available for redemption in specific restaurants that appear in the search results. Users can then redeem the coupon by showing it to the waiter at the restaurant.
REST has been Israel’s restaurant guide for the past 13 years, providing diverse information around food and restaurants. It is now the leading food network and directory of restaurants in Israel, with tens of thousands of visitors every day and offering access to thousands of restaurants, cafes and more.
