The new service will hew closely to Groupon's existing model, in which customers have a limited time to take advantage of a deal. A press release from the two companies promises that the discounts will be "typically around 50% off retail rates found at other online travel sites." A customer buys a voucher and redeems it at a later date.
Groupon also announced Wednesday its Groupon Now location-based deals service will expand into San Francisco and New York (where it will face off with a competing service from LivingSocial).
