Loopt Partners with Groupon Now!

Loopt, a check-in app, has now partnered with Groupon Now! in Chicago, reports Techcruch.

The partnership will provide Loopt users locationally relevant realtime deals around them, push notifying them when they are near a deal. What makes this service different is that it will notify users of deals when the app isn't even open. Groupon Now! deals will also appear on the 'Place' pages within Loopt so users can share their favorite relevant deals in the vicinity with friends.

Currently Loopt offers this service only in Chicago, but plans to expand the feature nationwide on both iPhone and Android devices.
