E-centives Patents

E-centives has an extensive, unparalleled portfolio of U.S. and foreign patent rights, including numerous issued patents, licenses and pending patent applications.

With six key issued patents and dozens more on file, E-centives is an industry-leader in online couponing. We possess one of the largest and earliest-dated collections of patent rights in online and print-at-home coupons, many of which date back to 1995. In fact, two of the most basic Internet coupon patents have been successfully enforced against a competitor.

E-centives has also procured patent rights for itself and its clients under others' coupon patents, which have also been enforced against many industry participants. As such, E-centives' clients rely upon our extensive patent rights and licenses to minimize patent issues associated with first-rate program executions.

E-centives patent portfolio also includes U.S. and foreign patents related to the rapidly growing areas of Internet search and e-commerce, as well as mobile, location-based and keyword-based marketing.
