Groupon South Africa has ceased to operate, and will close its doors finally by the end of the month.
The group buying site this morning directed customers to a message reading:
“Dear Customer,

We are sorry to inform you that as of 4 November 2016 Groupon has wound down its operations in South Africa and we are unable to offer you any deals today.
For our customers, this means we will stop offering deals on our website from tonight. All current vouchers bought will remain valid until the date stated on the voucher. The terms and conditions on the voucher remain the same. For any customers who are uncomfortable with using their voucher, we are offering a cash refund option if they contact us before 30 November 2016.

Groupon opened in South Africa in 2010, as a platform for local businesses to offer customers discounted products and services.
