IGIA Coupon Service

American Coupon Services (ACS) has a history of over 30 years of coupon redemption and is endorsed by the Iowa Grocery Industry Association.

ACS strives for fairness, legitimacy and efficiency in coupon redemption. ACS acts as a communications coordinator between retailers and manufacturers, tracks charge backs and provides a paper trail for your business. 

This is one of our most valuable services, relieving you of the time-consuming task of redeeming the cents-off coupons you receive from your customers. Any IGIA member can use ACS.  Retailers receive full face value of the coupon plus a handling fee.  ACS annually returns over $3 million to our customers. Customers usually receive the payment within 35 days after submitting coupons. 

To sign up, please complete the ACS Coupon Redemption form and mail to IGIA at 2540 106^th St, Suite 102 Des Moines, IA 50322 or fax to 515-270-0316.
