New app says shoppers will ‘never pay full price again’

Two Newcastle entrepreneurs have created a discount app where shoppers will ‘never pay full price again’.

Company Redu has created the Reward Me Now app which gives shoppers savings and discounts for high street and online purchases.

Customers can access deals that can’t be found anywhere else in the UK and users can benefit from up to 18 per cent off at over 150 brands, including Primark, Pizza Express, New Look, and River Island.

The app has been created by Gary Hunter and Sam Morton, who have already found success with their company and its discount website Ashleigh Money Saver, which is recognised as the UK’s leading shopping influencer with more than 700,000 Facebook followers.

“We want Reward Me Now to help our members every single day, so we’ve been working hard to find them savings everywhere from the high street to the online marketplace,” said Morton, chief commercial officer of Redu.

“Our team ensure that our members never need to pay full price for anything again! That’s ranging from their summer holiday to their weekly food shopping!

“We want to drive people back to the UK high street, as well as online, where the extensive savings we have curated and secured will have an impact on improving the finances of every single house in the country.”

Reward Me Now also aims to let shoppers save money when buying goods on the high street using a reloadable discount card.

The Reward Me Shopping Card automatically saves its owner 7 per cent every time they top up the card, so when members load £100 onto the card they only pay £93, but receive the full £100 to spend, and

Redu’s team believes that Reward Me Now could save its members up to £1,000 a year.

The group was founded in 2014 and has since grown its revenue to £2.5 million but expects to double this figure over the next two years.
