Groupon deals hit Chicago kiosks

January 25, 2012

Groupon coupons will soon be available at 30 kiosks with touchscreen displays throughout Chicago, according to the Sun Times.

The Groupon deals will target each kiosk's location. For example, a daily deal at a Navy Pier kiosk could include a discount for the IMAX Theatre.

The number of kiosks, with 32- and 46-inch touchscreens, will increase to 100 by March. The deployment stems from Groupon's partnership with SmartDigital.

No financial terms were disclosed.

The kiosks will also let people take photos and email or share the photos on social media sites. People can also access apps for non-emergency 311, city bus, train and bike availability and will soon be able to access a 911 app tied to the nearest security camera.
