COUPON API FEED

Stage of Life Merchant Network - Coupon API:  Coupons, discounts and offers for life

Stage of Life Coupon API in action - bank program

The Stage of Life Merchant Network API taps into our database of hundreds of national brand merchant offers, coupons and discounts.

Our API will give you the flexibility in how to use the coupon content to reward your members, customers or employees, either as a stand alone benefit or an enhancement to your existing loyalty program.  

We’re different than other coupon providers because...
1) Our content is segmented by merchant category (small business, shoes, travel, etc.) AND life stage (students, families, wedding, homeowners, grandparents, Baby Boomers, etc.)

2)  We will customize segmenting options so you can create tags that will deliver offers most relevant to your unique audience.

3)  And, we'll load in local merchant coupons and offers or other benefits that you bring to the table from your existing relationships.

Here's a TV commercial from our client, PeoplesBank, that aired in Pennsylvania and Maryland about their PeoplesBank Rewards program that uses the Stage of Life Merchant Network Coupon API...



Within a few hours, you will be delivering value-add content to enhance your membership benefits and customer loyalty experience.

If you need a more complete solution for your coupon or membership program, we can provide those services too.  We look forward to providing your organization with the Stage of Life Merchant Network API!

We say...

"If we can't help you, we'll refer you to (or recommend) other loyalty, partnership or membership site-building agencies that can. 

Our goal is to help differentiate your brand with an exclusive membership program tailored to your organization that will both generate loyalty with existing members/customers, and give you something cool to talk about with new customers.

We'd love to have a call, talk about your project, and provide you a quote and timeline."

-Eric Thiegs, President & CEO of Stage of Life LLC

Merchant Categories

Use of Multiple Tags    

The exciting part comes when clients have very specific targeting needs for the offers.  For instance, if an organization has a large group of members that are Small Business owners who are Raising a Family and love to be Healthy, we could create a custom feed of offers in a new API key by pulling in the tags “Small Business”, “Raising a Family” and “Health & Wellness.” 

The offers that would show up in that API feed would be merchant offers in the Stage of Life Merchant Network flagged with each of those tags.


Clients simply need to tell us which combination of tags they want to have pulled into a feed and we’ll set up a separate API key for that exclusive mix of offers to display in their program.



Custom Merchant Categories    

Clients are also welcome to submit custom “tags” relevant to just their audience or program, and we'll use those to segment the offers too.  These tags can be anything that the client wants

The power of the Stage of Life Merchant Network is its flexibility and customization.  At a minimum, we will give each client one API key for access to all of the offers.  But we can also create literally dozens of targeted, category-specific API keys so that each client can feature specific offers, categories, and/or custom segmentation of merchant types by our tagging system.
