I'm a sucker for pretty much anything in the "social good" space, but I'm not sure how this is going to get users, or donations. It doesn't address a real pain point, and I wish it weren't true, but "doing good" isn't enough of a value prop to get (most) people to sign up or take action.
What sort of accounts would I link to Bstow?
@drewmeyers Great question. I revised my original post to be more clear.
Bstow democratizes giving by lowering traditional barriers to entry for people that otherwise wouldn't be involved - users have a choice of any non-profit and can use it with most banks/cards at any store/online merchant. That way almost anyone can help to solve some of the worlds toughest problems as they go about their normal routine.
Doing good sure makes our team feel great over at Bstow!
Hi Everyone - Thanks for the warm welcome to the Product Hunt community. We are currently testing Bstow and working on adding super engaging feature sets. Here is a quick breakdown:
-Link a credit or debit card, pick any non-profit, and Bstow automatically rounds up your spare change and sends it to the non-profit you chose
-Set a monthly limit on contributions
-Contribute more at any time
-Track your progress and compete against your friends
-Donations are tax deductible
Let us know if you would use an app like this, what types of features you would like to see, and/or which non-profit you would choose.
