With An Extra $1.2M From Rally Capital, Pirq Adds Loyalty, Nat?l Rollout To Its Restaurant Deals App

We last heard from Pirq when the company announced a nice deal with Apple to offer its employees a special app for discounts on food at restaurants near its offices in Cupertino -- a relationship that just might develop into something further, according to sources at the time. Today, however, we have some more news about Pirq expanding other parts of its service. The company has picked up an extra $1.2 million in funding from existing investor Rally Capital (a fund headed by former Nextel CEO Dennis Weibling); and it is adding a digital punchcard to its retail restaurant deals offering, as it prepares to take the service nationwide and to other categories besides food. James Sun, the CEO, says the company is also preparing for another significant round of funding in the new year with to ramp up its service once more. Today's $1.2 million takes the total invested by Rally into Pirq up to $3.2 million.
