History[edit]

Quotient Technology, formerly Coupons.com, Inc., was founded in 1998 by Steven Boal, former CEO. Coupons.com originally was a website for finding and printing coupons. The website eventually expanded to the Coupons.com app, which enabled consumers to redeem cashback offers and load offers to loyalty cards, as well as find printable coupons. In June 2011, Coupons.com’s value was estimated at $1 billion.[3] In October 2011, Greylock Partners announced an investment of up to $30 million in a secondary market purchase of company shares.[4] In 2014, Coupons.com went public with a $100 million IPO with NYSE trading under COUP.[5] In 2015, Coupons.com changed its corporate name to Quotient Technology, Inc. (NYSE: QUOT).[6] The Coupons.com domain is now owned by Global Savings Group. [7]
