PriceProtectr.com announced that they have covered $4 million in purchases for their registered users, a major milestone. The website offers a free service where registered users receive an automated message when the price drops on something they’ve purchased.
“The $4 million mark is a big accomplishment for us, and we thank our users,” said James Wallace, CEO of PriceProtectr.com. “This is a major milestone for PriceProtectr.com. Our members have been the reason for our success because they sign up for the service, tell their friends, and point out retailers with price protection policies. We just keep getting bigger.”
If the price goes down after someone buys an item from one of 33 retailers covered by PriceProtectr.com, registered users get an e-mail with detailed instructions on how to they may be able to get some money back from the store. The retailer must have a price protection policy, but many household names have such policies. Price Protectr.com has over 30 national retailers, including Amazon, Best Buy, Sears, and Staples.
The PriceProtectr.com service is free, and use of the website is on the rise.
“The beta site for PriceProtectr.com has gained popularity solely through word of mouth and positive press, so $4 million? That’s fantastic,” said Tim Tonella, President. Tonella went on, “While we’re proud of the $4 million in transactions, more consumers should take advantage of price protection policies and save money.”
“Our users have saved over $250,000,” said Dave Cohen, Chief Technology Officer of the company. “The motto ‘Get Your Money Back’ has been true for our users. PriceProtectr.com has more retailers than any other price protection site, and we add more every week. The more our users come back and the more retailers we find with policies, the more they save.”
