WeMakePrice, one of the nation’s top three daily-deal sites, said Tuesday the number of its unique visitors during the first three weeks of January outpaced those of rivals Coupang and Ticket Monster.

The company added it posted a 50 percent growth in gross merchandise volume or GMV -- the total value of goods sold through a marketplace -- at 2.4 trillion won ($2 billion) last year.
“Everyone in our company has put extraordinary efforts to continue the explosive growth,” Lee Jin-hyeong, WeMakePrice vice president, said in a statement. “We are off to a great start this year by topping the total visitor number among our rivals. This year, we will continue to boost our GMV to compete directly with other online markets overall.”
