History edit
Founded in Berlin as CityDeal in December 2009, the collective now serves Germany, France, Spain, Sweden, Austria, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Italy, Ireland and Turkey.
The service was acquired in May 2010 by Groupon, an operator of a similar service in the United States, and was co-branded under the Groupon name. The acquisition increased Groupon's operations in European markets.[2]
