When you check for optimal features, ensure that you have added exclusive features. I will explain to you two exclusive and enticing features from the list that I found from my favorite script.

Advert System – A unique feature that affirms to reach your targeted audience with the popular marketing strategy “Social Network Marketing”. The feature is also named as “Refer A Friend” as it enables your existing users/customers to refer deals to friends. Your user can refer their friends to use the deal by just clicking a Refer A Friend button which sends email to the friend’s mail box. As an administrator you can set the Referral System to be either For Sign Up or Purchase. Thus the user stands to gain referral bonus either by making their friends to just signing in your deal site or for the first purchase from your site by the reference. The users can redeem their credit points on the next purchase, provided the credit points are lesser than the deal price.

Merchant Login- Enabling the merchant to add products in your group buying site. When the merchant registers in your site, you send a username and password to their account which is unchangeable. By signing in with the provided username and password in the Login Box for Merchants, the merchant is led to the admin page of merchant where they can see the dashboard, sales, catalog, blogs and reports. As a website owner, you are privileging the merchants with direct access to their products which will ignite a good rapport between you and the merchant, sustaining them to business with you in the long run.

Facebook App and Mobile Apps are other features that when added to your group buying script will elevate your standards. Making your Groupon clone website mobile compatible is the best way to reach the on-the-go targets. Running your entire Groupon clone website in Facebook, giving the ardent Facebookers to shop from your deal site by staying in Facebook is an intelligent way to satisfy the network savvies. Set up a deal site with the above mentioned features and gesticulate your presence on the market.
