With the existence of group buying sites in the Philippines, business owners are able to afford advertisement to a broader market. And for consumers they are given a chance to maximize their budget with a very pleasurable offer.

Dealspot Philippines has been operational in the group buying Philippine industry since October 2010. Based in Greenhills, San Juan City, DealSpot Philippines is a bunch of internet-savvy, quality shoppers who, like everyone else, wants to experience the best things in life without breaking the bank.

So, how does DealSpot Philippines works?

At DealSpot Philippines, you can get spot on deals at a fraction of the cost. The DealSpot team created this Pinoy group buying website to give consumers a chance to enjoy life’s treats without spending too much.

Registered group buyers at Dealspot.PH may avail of group deals by clicking the deal’s Buy button. They will then be taken to the order form where they can set the number of vouchers they wish to buy, the branch where they wish to redeem their purchase and the payment method they prefer. Buyers may name the coupon other than their own. This method is commonly referred to as a gift. The recipient to whom the voucher was named to is the legal owner of the voucher and is the only individual entitled to redeem the purchase.

After the ordering process the buyer will be notified of the sale via email that may also contain additional instructions on how to proceed with the group purchase especially when opting to pay with over the counter or delayed payment methods (e.g. bank, wire transfer, money order, etc.) All orders are subject for review and approval of the Sales Department before coupons/vouchers are issued to the recipients of the same.
