Enter Houston-based WHAMtext. The company has launched what it calls an on-demand mobile marketplace that allows consumers to pull coupons directly to their cell phones via text message. What does that mean? You can get electronic discounts sent to your cell phones. The system works by texting the store or business using the service.
Say for example you wanted to order a pizza on a Friday night and wanted a discount. If that pizza place used the service, you would text something like "pizza" to GoWHAM (469426). WHAMtext's system would find the nearest participating pizza restaurant and send your mobile an electronic coupon.
