Through the app, Groupon can now make its deals available to iPhone and iPod Touch users on the go in Hong Kong. The app has been launched in the international App Store and is also accessible to fans in Singapore, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Spain, the United Kingdom and the USA.

“Groupon is changing the way that consumers support local commerce in Hong Kong. Our new app brings the best deals directly to your pocket,” said Danny Yeung, chief executive officer of Groupon Hong Kong.

Features on the new app include browsing daily deals in local neighbourhoods and signing up for a new account or accessing an existing account to find and organise all previous purchases.

The app also allows users to present coupons or 'Groupons' to merchants from the screen, saving on print-outs, and map out Groupon purchases through activating the GPS feature.

Groupon deals are currently offered in 46 countries, in 500 markets in North America, Latin America, Europe and Asia (including in Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, Taiwan and the Philippines).
