Edison Mail Offers New Price Alert Service Built-Into Your Mailbox for Best Deal on Recent Purchases Across Top Retailers

More than just an email app, Edison will alert you when the price
drops on one of your recent purchases so you can shop with confidence.

SAN JOSE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#BestMailApp–How often do people wonder if they paid the right price for an item? Now
consumers can rely on an email app they use everyday to help save them
time and money with Edison
Mail, the award winning AI-based app offering private and secure
mailbox management. Edison Mail today released an update to its iOS
app featuring Price Alert, a new feature that notifies you when the
price of your recent purchase drops so you can request a refund for the
difference from the store. The email app is the first to offer built-in
price protection for consumers with no separate app or service needed.

Edison Mail’s Price Alert helps you shop with confidence that you’re not
missing out on a chance to get some cash back. You don’t have to sign up
for an extra service – just activate Price Alert for the mail accounts
you want the app to monitor for price changes, then do your normal
shopping. Edison Mail will take care of the rest while the receipts in
your inbox help save you money in the event that a price drops.

Price Alert appears in the app’s Bills & Receipts assistant menu, and
goes additional steps beyond just categorizing receipts. Edison Mail’s
proprietary AI-based technology protects your purchases by monitoring
the stores you shop at for items you recently bought, then notifying you
if the price of an item you recently purchased drops more than $1. The
app will even provide a suggested email template for you to customize
and consider sending to the store to ensure the refund process is simple.

Edison Mail’s Price Alert monitors online price changes at top retailers
throughout the USA that have price match policies in place, so it’s
worth reaching out to request refunds for price drops. Popular stores
supported by Price Alert include Bed Bath & Beyond, Best Buy, Old Navy,
Macy’s, Nike, Target, Walmart, and many more.

“Anyone who shops worries whether they got the best deal on what they
bought. Edison Mail helps you manage your mailbox better and eliminates
that concern by alerting you if a recent purchase price changes.
Finally, a painless way to get money back in your pocket on the shopping
you’re doing anyway, with no extra steps needed,” said Mikael Berner,
CEO at Edison.

Today’s consumers are smarter than ever about saving money while they
shop–conducting extensive research, price comparisons, couponing and
more to get the best deal. Since launching on iOS in April 2016, Edison
Mail has offered a smart set of AI-based features to help consumers
simplify how they manage everyday essentials like subscriptions,
packages, bills, and more, all in one place. The app has sent 10
million+ flight notifications (i.e. on-time vs. delayed, gate changes,
etc.), tracked shipping for over 90 million packages, and organized over
500 million receipts for consumers. Price alerts about purchase cost
changes are a natural addition to Edison Mail to layer onto the items
people are already buying and the receipts that end up in their mailbox.

Edison Software’s Developer API and research-backed
business model ensures that Edison Mail will remain a reliable and privacy-forward
alternative for consumers looking for an ad-free, faster, simpler,
smarter, and independent mail app.
