Leafbuyer is an online cannabis deals database that helps consumers locate and learn about dispensaries or product companies in their area and find special offers specific to those businesses. The website's slogan, Find Your Happy Price., highlights the main function of the company: to serve as a coupon directory for cannabis patients and recreational users.
The website also hosts a cannabis strain database, defining the traits and characteristics of specific strains, thereby helping patients and other customers determine which strains are best suited to treat their individual ailments and conditions. Two other prominent features on the company's website are the jobs board and the Leafbuyer Lists. The former connects employers in the legal marijuana industry with job-seekers, and the Leafbuyer Lists user consumer feedback to highlight some of the people, products, and dispensaries leading the industry in various states around the nation.
Headquartered in Greenwood Village, Colorado, and first launched in Colorado in 2013, Leafbuyer announced plans to expand into California, Florida, Nevada, Massachusetts, Arkansas, and North Dakota, following the November 2016 elections, which legalized cannabis use in those states.
In September 2017, Leafbuyer was named one of the Top 150 Ancillary Cannabis Companies.

Background
Leafbuyer was founded in November 2012, with the passing of Colorado Amendment 64, which legalized the medical and recreational use of cannabis in the state. Founded by a group of technology and industry veterans, Leafbuyer's founders recognized the need to connect users with dispensaries, and help them find the best cannabis deals in their region. Notable developments since that time include the partnerships with The Cannabist (owned by the Denver Post) in August 2016, The Westword in December 2016, and Voice Media Group (owner of LA Weekly, Phoenix New Times, and Toke of the Town) in September 2017. In Q2 of 2017, the company became publicly traded on the OTC marketplace.
