Nobody is doing “recommended offers”
Snap Skout matches your content with deals and offers, saving readers time and generating new revenue for publishers.
What We Believe
• Display advertising won’t always be annoying if we just get it right.
• People are just as curious as they were in 1994.
• Native advertising doesn’t have to be sneaky, it just has to make sense.
• Reading a print magazine or viewing a website should be an experience, people like anticipation more than surprises.
• People still value, respect, and follow newspapers and magazines
• Keeping it classy.
