A method and a system for managing electronic coupons utilize a merchant identifier and a consumer characteristic, and package such information into a verification request for redemption of the electronic coupon as a form of receipt or proof of redemption. The server sends an electronic coupon to the consumer's mobile electronic device upon request. During a purchase, the consumer presents the electronic coupon to the merchant, and receives a merchant identifier. The merchant identifier and a consumer characteristic are included into a verification request for redemption of the electronic coupon and sent to the server. The server verifies the verification request according to the information contained therein to allow the redemption of the coupon, and stores the verification information for future coupon processing.
