Hey Product hunters and thanks @benln for helping us out.
I am super happy to introduce you to Giv 🎁! Giv is the easiest way to make giveaways on Snapchat and Instagram stories. While working on Lifeslice and seeing our Snapchat account growing, we realized that there we could engage with our followers in other interesting ways.
We love giving swag away and decided to build a small tool that could leverage stories to reward our users…and Giv came to life!🎁🎁
Creating a Giv is simple:
- Start a Giv and select a prize
- Attach your link to your story!
- ???
- Profit! 💸🤑
We are super excited to get it in the hands of the product hunt community and we would love your feedback! 🙏🙏
*** "Why are users asked to enter giveaways using their email addresses?“, you ask? Well, after talking to our users, we realized that getting in touch via Snapchat & Instagram wasn’t always easy. However, every Gen-Z/Millennial has an email! After all, they need one to download apps 😇***
@benln Would love to see an example of this live as a demo and also a video of how this is set up
It looks to be free at the moment - what are your plans for monetisation?
Hi @krishnade ! We’ll get a demo up.
As of now, we are not really looking into monetasing Giv, we built it to engage further with our own followers and we figured we’d share it!
Here is an example we just made for started (@lifesliceapp) http://giv.fun/giv/g0l2brpgkw
This is interesting! Eager to look into this further as we've had fun and found success growing our newsletter through email giveaways. I could see this working similarly well on Snapchat and Insta. cc @Ems_Hodge
This looks fun. Love the branding and all but I'd love to see some visuals (even an animated gif) on the site to give me more information about how it works and make me want to register. Right now, there is NO info and i'm not a fan of that. Like i said, this sounds cool but i don't know what i'm getting myself in for. Good luck!
This is so awesome! I'm using it already and its absolutely amazing tool! Thanks for sharing...
Does anyone need free music for the next visual project? :)

@mugecvk As of now, only verified accounts can add links to their stories. We hope that changes! Some people have attached their giv link to their profile or post.
@krisryanwhite thanks for the feedback! We will add an error message asap.
As to your problem, there can be several ways causing it:
1. Username/Email already exists/not valid.
2. Password and repeated password doesn't match.
If you still can't make this work for some odd reason feel free to mail me at
ofer [at] lifeslice [dot] io and we'll make it work ;)
Love the idea and idea of using Snapchat to interact with people in "non-Snapchat" ways like how the Whale team are doing with Polly now.
Very interested in using this as I'm looking to set up some giveaways - today in fact - but would be good to be able to upload images, link to products that you're giving away and if possible in the future allow for increased giveaway entries if they add multiple "signups" like Liking your Facebook page, Following on IG, Adding on Snap etc etc - currently I've only seen Gleam do this but their interface hasn't improved in years and the design and social focus of this makes it way more appealing to me!
Nice work everyone!
