The message can have something like “do you want to get notifications regarding the most up to date information?” or “enable alerts to be reported regarding new discount rates?”.

The counterparty – online sellers, vehicle lending services, etc – will certainly remain in profit, too – buyer will undoubtedly get a pointer concerning the item he/she planned to buy. And also such a marketing technique is almost free – this factor is very vital for companies.
