that has been developed in North Texas becomes a success.&nbsp; No one will have to collect paper coupons anymore if they exist on new and old cell phones instead.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb10\">\n<\/p><p>Koupon Media began in the March of 2011 as a part of an incubator program, the firm having raised over $2 million in investments via venture capitalists from Chicago and Houston.&nbsp; Koupon Media product evangelist Ben Walker says the method is about to take off and will forever change the way in which Americans are able to cash in on discounts.&nbsp; \u201cSo just like a paper coupon you pick out the product that you want to buy,\u201d Walker says.&nbsp; Rather than cutting and clipping however, you will now just be able to take out your cell phone instead.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb10\">\n<\/p><p>\u201cIt\u2019s taking the paper coupon and moving it to the phone,\u201d says the co-founder and chief executive officer of Koupon Media, TJ Person.&nbsp; Koupon Media is the very first in the United States to bring coupons that can be scanned straight to the mobile phone.&nbsp; \u201cThe brands and retailers were looking for ways to deliver one-time use mobile offers to consumers through their phone,\u201d Person adds.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb10\">\n<\/p><p>The coupons will even include traditional features such as the likes of scratch and save, with the technology being developed by a small team of around 20 people in Frisco.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The old-fashioned way of collecting coupons may soon be a thing of
