‘Twism’ App Serves Up Special Deals to Give Local Businesses an Economic Boost

At a time when consumers are looking for deals and discounts, businesses are recharging their game plans for summer with Twism, an online app supporting multiple exclusive deals.

Twism is a loyalty program through the app and the consumer can find savings and try out new businesses they have yet to visit.

Ben Corralis the Twism app Manager. He says, there's no hidden fees to use the app. "Basically it's a local app where you can get deals, rewards and even gift cards from places. A lot of your favorite places all around town. All you gotta do is sign up. It doesn't cost you anything."

For the promotion from May 12-21 there are deals that include:  

  • $15 Burger + Beer Special at Yellow Belly Tap, 
  • 2 for $10 Single Scoops at Rori's Artisanal Creamery (SB, Montecito, Goleta, Carpinteria.)
  • Giovanni's Pizza, salad and beer combos
  • Los Altos Tacos
  • Lighthouse Coffee
  • Cuso's Creamery discounted scoops
  • Renaud's Patisserie & Bistro Croissant special
  • and a chance to  be in the Twism Week offer to win 2 tickets to the California Wine Festival.

Twism acquired Axxess in 2023 and it was known for two-for-one type deals and school donations.  It transitioned the discount card into a digital style app with an enhanced platform and deal structure for the businesses and the customer.

Matias Requena is the owner of Buena Onda Empanadas on Haley Street in Santa Barbara. He says, "I think it's a good way for them to see us. We're so out of the beaten path that it's a good way to bring them back. "

Requena said for the customer, "every time they make a purchase, as long as they save the card on the app. they  get, 10% back,. Then they can collect the (Twism) coins and redeem them later."

Rachel Cantella is a Twism app sales manager and says they have businesses throughout the Tri-County area and beyond. "It's super slick and super easy.  It's all in one app for the consumer. They have their rewards and their loyalty and their offers all in one app. You don't have to have a bunch of different apps open".

During Twism week, "21 have really good offers. And it is a broad, broad range."
