Bringing savings to your doorstep since 1968.

We’ve all seen that blue envelope in the mailbox, loaded with money-saving coupons (and $100 for some lucky recipients) from our favorite local businesses. But you may not know Valpak envelopes reach 37 million households nationwide each month plus another 110 million online users. Originally produced from Terry Loebel’s Clearwater garage, over the years Valpak has found immense success promoting businesses and helping consumers save money. In 2017, the company won the Technology of the Year Award from Tampa Bay Tech for new innovation that allows businesses to selectively target its coupon audience at the address level. Proving its still a relevant and innovative product in today’s marketplace.
