8coupons And CityPockets Team Up To Let Users Organize, Resell, And Create Their Own Daily Deals

13144v9-max-250x250Back in 2007, a startup called 8coupons launched as a mobile coupon service that allowed users to sign up with their phone number, receive coupons and offers from local businesses via SMS. That was before Groupon had hit the streets, before the web daily deal model had really taken hold, and 8coupons was just a little ahead of its time on the mobile front. Since then, 8coupons has built out its web property, which today aggregates over 600,000 live offers nationwide from 4,000 sources including 450 daily deal companies as well as 50 local "non-daily" deal companies. Today, the startup is announcing that it has teamed up with an awesome young startup called CityPockets (you can read our writeup of the NYC-based deal wallet and resale marketplace here) to bring tracking, purchase management, and resale to its deal aggregation platform.
