Abstract: A system and method for coupon distribution is described, the system and method including an electronic publisher implemented on one of a computer or processing device operative to publish an electronic publication including at least one offer to receive a discount on the purchase of a product, an encryption engine which encrypts each copy of the electronic publication to a key specific to one device among a plurality of devices including a known number of individual devices, distribution apparatus implemented on one of a computer or processing device which distributes, at least at a first time, the encrypted electronic publication to each individual device among the plurality of devices, confirmation receiving apparatus implemented on one of a computer or processing device which receives confirmation from the individual devices that the at least one offer has been accepted on the one device, and one of a computer or processing device including a counter which counts the number of confirmations received, a calculator which calculates a clip rate based on dividing the number of confirmations received by the known number of individual devices, and a processor which, based on a result of the calculation of the clip rate, adjusts the number of individual devices including a second plurality of devices, to which, at a second time, the electronic publication is to be distributed by the distribution apparatus. Related methods, systems and apparatus are also described.
