With the recent increase in costs of living, Flipp’s mission has never been more relevant. Flipp’s Shopper Consideration Platform allows retailers and manufacturers to create digital experiences from their savings & deals content.

Flipp then connects those retailer and manufacturer experiences to millions of shoppers through Flipp’s owned and operated channels.
