CEO of Otta

With savings portals in over 20 countries, Deloitte’s Technology Fast 50 award winners Global Savings Group (GSG) has a track record of generating millions in income for a versatile range of retailers. With an international client base that has included Microsoft, Adidas, and H&M, GSG uses data analytics to build customer service platforms for its clients' consumer bases. These platforms allowed its clients to offer cashback, deals, and ways to save, thus enhancing the CX experience.

At a time when eCommerce and online marketplaces continue to outpace high street stores, GSG capitalized on its valued success by acquiring online voucher and discount companies to its portfolio. Notable acquisitions include French cashback company iGraal in 2020 and discount code browser extension Pouch in 2019.

However, the company was recently acquired, itself, by Pepper.com, which the marriage of the world's largest shopping community with Europe's leading shopping recommendation and rewards company. Hence, a multinational tech company empowering shoppers in over 20 markets has been born and will connect brands with consumers across around 2B annual purchases.
