Snaptaps

What is Snaptaps?

Snaptaps is an online shopping service that brings together the best price drops every day from the UK's favourite high street retailers. If you like a bargain but don't always have time to do all of the leg work, then we think it's for you

What can I do with the app?

Snaptaps looks at the whole market each day and spots where prices have been dropped by retailers. In the app, we display a selection of some of the top price drops that we found. You can save the offers that you like, and dismiss the ones that aren't for you. Also, if you see something that you think might be up someone else's street then you can share offers with your friends by messaging them directly or posting to social media.

How do I "like" an offer?

That's easy. On the main screen, you'll see a stack of cards with the days top offers. Just swipe to the right to "like", or to the left to dismiss it. If you want to see a bit more, just tap the top card for an expanded view.

What happens to the stuff I've liked?

Offers that you have swiped to the right will appear in the "my offers" tab. You can revisit them at any time, and then tap through to buy from the retailer (or else just stare longingly until payday!)

How do I buy an offer?

Snaptaps isn't a retailer itself - just an information service. Each expanded view has a "view offer" button which will take you off to the retailer's website in your web browser. From there you can buy and browse in the normal way.

I already use the Snaptaps website - can I sign in to my account with the app?

No, not yet. For the time being, the app is a stand-alone service which doesn't connect to your existing Snaptaps account, or the additional search functionality on the website. Watch this space, though...

What does "beta" mean?

It's just a slightly geeky way of saying that the app is in its early stages, and more importantly that we'd like your feedback. We've tried to keep things nice and simple to start, with the intention of extending and modifying the features in response to the comments and criticisms we get. There are lots of exciting ideas buzzing around at Snaptaps HQ, but who are we to decide what you want to see next! As such please use the "feedback" page to let us know how we're doing, and how we can take Snaptaps forward together in the coming weeks and months...
