PRIMO is an app that allows you to buy things worldwide by scanning a PRIMO Tag or clicking a PRIMO Link in Instagram/Facebook. PRIMO Tags can be embedded in a print or digital picture, video, or on an actual product. Merchants can now monetize their advertising by allowing their customers buy directly through that ad. Imagine buying an iPhone 7 through a commercial with 1 tap. Or shopping at IKEA and avoiding all the lines. The app is the POS, making the world a store. PRIMO origin story: I watched a Michael Jackson documentary in 2003, and he was shopping by pointing his finger at products, and his people handled the rest in the background. I thought 'someday I want to make something that allows everyone to shop like that' https://youtu.be/CXl0O5ViuBw

@renato_shira Thanks Renato! We feel ecommerce is very well optimized for the PC era but there hasn't been anything for built from the ground up for the smartphone era.

@abasa Great product! Will PRIMO customers be based in a particular region at the beginning or you start worldwide?

So the user has to download primo? So the merchant has to have primo integrated?

@abasa @johnnyquachy So to which group are you going to focus on first? The users or the merchants?
abasa aka pfazer
@ykguler @johnnyquachy We are currently focusing on the merchants. Users need stuff to buy before it makes sense for us to focus on them.

@abasa @johnnyquachy Also merchants need users to buy stuff :) paying nothing to open a new potential sales channel is more than justifiable. What's your plan for on boarding new users?
abasa aka pfazer
@ykguler @johnnyquachy That's right. That's why we made it free to start and run. So far merchants have been extremely receptive. At the moment, we are onboarding merchants that have a large advertising budget, and user base. We are utilizing them to gain users.

Don't Amazon have 1-click-purchasing patented? 🤔
Greg Hodson
@abasa Are you licensing it from Amazon?
abasa aka pfazer
@gregjwww Our system works with 1 click and the phone checks your movement to make sure you're human. It's actually 2 steps but the user only notices 1 step.
Greg Hodson
@abasa Clever, is this a valid way to avoid patent infringement? Primo's a great idea and I wouldn't want to see it squashed by Amazon's lawyers, I presume you've consulted legal advice on whether your app doesn't infringe their patent, right?
abasa aka pfazer
@gregjwww Thank you. Yes we have and our system is patent pending. Spent a lot of time with the lawyers on this actually.
