PROVO, Utah--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Seven Peaks, Utah’s leader in family entertainment and recreation, today announced that it has acquired the assets of CityDeals, the leading regional online daily-deal provider. As a long time customer of CityDeals, Seven Peaks has seen tremendous success offering consumers deals through CityDeals. With the acquisition, Seven Peaks will continue to advance the online deal category and deliver compelling deals to consumers.
“Consumers and merchants have loved the value they’ve received from CityDeals over the years,” said Bruce Law, VP of Marketing at Seven Peaks. “Seven Peaks was one of those satisfied merchants. The acquisition of CityDeals by Seven Peaks assures that CityDeals will continue to provide tremendous benefits to consumers and regional business owners and have stamina to deliver those benefits over the long haul.”

Seven Peaks is also working out arrangements to take care of any merchants that have been awaiting payment from CityDeals. Merchants involved with CityDeals are supportive of the transaction.
“We were staring at a pretty big receivable from CityDeals and didn’t know how we would continue to provide service without compensation,” said Glen Overton of Hotel Park City. “With the acquisition by Seven Peaks, we’ll be able to continue to provide these discounted services, which have helped our customers and our business.”
