About PerkSpot:

At PerkSpot, we believe that life is about getting the most out of every dollar, every moment, and every opportunity. We don't just see a discount; we see a doorway to craft a lifestyle that balances smart choices with meaningful experiences. We celebrate the relentless pursuit of value, the satisfaction of finding that perfect deal, and the sense of confidence that comes from spending with intention. Every dollar saved is a step closer to the life you envision-one that's rich in memories, secure in planning, and full of everyday wins that bring joy and fulfillment.

Our journey began in Chicago back in 2006 with a vision of helping employees stretch their paychecks without sacrificing what they love. What began as a small company with a big vision has evolved into a discount shopping solution employees across the globe rely on to stretch their paychecks. In 2018, PerkSpot raised $50M from Susquehanna Growth Equity and today the business serves more than 22 million employees from top employers including Southwest Airlines, Mayo Clinic, and Humana. We saw an opportunity to do more-to build something that brought genuine, life-enhancing value to employees' everyday financial decisions.
