Walmart Launches Savings Catcher App

By Dawood Sajid


Walmart is the largest retailer in the world and is always looking for new opportunities to reach out to a wider audience. The new app released by Walmart is called Savings Catcher and is designed to help users find the lowest prices available. Instead of providing users with shopping options, the app compares prices after users are done shopping.



In today's world, having an app for your store will put you above everyone else. If you notice that your competition has an app, you will need one too. This is what happened with Walmart. Target has an app and now Walmart needs one. The public was expecting it and will be happy with it. It will help people save money a little easier and in return might choose to shop there over other places.

The problem with this current procedure is that a lot of the information can be in accurately reported and conveyed. This application makes it possible to take that data, essentially their patterns of purchasing certain merchandise and goods, in order to properly serve them with coupons on what they are more likely to buy.

Within the app, people have the option to pick their store. This is helpful so that they know what is going on locally. They can look and see what is in stock where they normally shop. This is similar to what they can find on the website.

In the end, the Savings Catcher app is a good way to save money and time since users no longer have to go through printed ads to find lower prices or travel to other nearby stores to purchase a discounted product. However, the app does not compare prices with products that are not marked down at the moment. The app is very quick and convenient to use, which makes it ideal for users who wish to save money without investing time and effort into comparing prices or couponing.

It is very common for larger corporations to come out with new applications that can be used on smart phones used by consumers. Some of the applications are very innovative, yet it is sometimes the simple apps that make all the difference in the world. If you have ever signed up for a card for a particular store that you shop at on a regular basis, this is what you scan while you are paying for your groceries or merchandise in order to get the discounts that only members have access to. The difficulty with this type of system is that people sometimes forget their cards, and they will have to enter in a phone number to get the lower prices. What is really missing, however, is an understanding of what the customer is buying, when they are buying it, and how to relate this to technology that can identify patterns.
