How to Create a Deal on Facebook Deals
Facebook Deals enables business owners to offer individual coupons, group discounts, loyalty rewards and charitable donations to customers and fans who check in at their places of business using the Facebook mobile application.

Tips & Warnings
If your business doesn't exist on Facebook, "check-in" at the location of your business using the Facebook app on your iPhone or Android device. Once the business page is created, you can claim ownership of it by clicking "Is this your business?" in the left sidebar of your business page on Facebook. Click the check box certifying that you own or represent the business, and then click "Continue." Click "Call Me Now" to receive a verification call from Facebook at the number associated with your business to complete the claim process.
