Here are a few of the most interesting Groupon statistics I was able to dig up. As always, be sure to check back in the future as I will be updating this post as new and updated stats become available.
Groupon has certainly seen its shares of highs and lows over the years, but it has endured and remains a real player in the world of ecommerce nine years after launch. With eleven years of deal promotions and sales, one can imagine there are plenty of aspects of Groupon to be measured. I recent sat down to see what I could find out about the site.
Please note that some of these Groupon Statistics are easier to find than others. A few of these Groupon stats come from their own reports, but some are based on news reports and not official company tallies. No information contained on DMR should be relied upon to make investment decisions. Basically, this is the best I can find and I don’t guarantee anything to be 100%
