CHICAGO—Groupon,      a shopping website that offers a daily deal on the best local goods,      services and cultural events in more than 300 markets around the world,      announces a distribution partnership with Yahoo! to bring local Groupon     deals to Yahoo! users on a global scale.

Starting today, Groupon deals will be integrated through Yahoo!’s new     Local Offers program. Groupon deals will initially have a presence on     Yahoo! in the U.S., and soon, internationally. This program will     leverage Groupon’s breadth and depth of daily deals and Yahoo!’s scale     and targeting capabilities in order to bring the most relevant and     useful deals to all Yahoo! users.

“This partnership highlights Groupon’s success in building a deep,      global platform around local deals as we currently serve over 29 million     subscribers in 31 countries,” said Rob Solomon, President and Chief     Operating Officer of Groupon. “We’re excited to bring our unbeatable     local offers to new users worldwide while providing Groupon merchants     with this new platform of awareness and growth.”

“Yahoo! is delivering technology at scale that connects people to the     things that matter most to them with fresh and engaging experiences,”      said Blake Irving, Executive Vice President and Chief Product Officer.      “As content and advertising intersect online, our partnership with     Groupon is one more great way that we’re making the digital world more     personal for our more than 600 million users—connecting them with the     local offers that help them better enjoy the world around them.”
