The Hopper app uses push notifications to alert users to low-cost fares (up to 35 per cent off) that aren't available online. Air Canada and WestJet have since severed ties with Hopper due to confusion over the developer's announcement that the airline would offer "secret fares" on its app. The Hopper app will alert users to low-cost fares that the company says won't be available online. Canada's largest grocer plans to "blanket the country" with online grocery services this year.
