Project Overview

The project is actually 2 apps offering discounts from a multitude of merchants in many different fields from Fast Food to High End Automobiles.  Anything a person may buy.

The base app contains coupons for services with a discount.  This coupon may be used multiple times.  Some restrictions may apply if the merchant desires.

The second app is offering totally free or 50% or more off  for a NEW customer to the merchant.  This coupon can  only be used ONCE.  No donation would be sent for this coupon.

The value of this  “FREE” app would be the thousands of free or deeply discounted products or services offered by those merchants that want to use the app as a way to get NEW customers.

The App Is Free To The Public

1. 1.  The person simply registers on line and downloads the app.
   2. Once the app is registered the person gets both the discount and the ‘Free” app.

The App Is Free To The Merchant

1. 1.  The Merchant listing and the ads are free.  (Multiple ads will be allowed if the merchant has more than one category of items to sell.)
      A.  Updating the ads could be free using AI and a design form the merchant uses.
      B.  A design service could be offered to design and post the new ads for a small fee.
   2.  The merchant agrees to make a donation to the charity when a sale is made from the app ad.
   3.  The merchant determines the amount of the donation.   We will suggest 10%.  The amount of the donation could be based on many variables. The donations are tax deductible and a statement is sent at year end.
   4.   The merchant is invoiced once a month for the total amount of the sale donations for that month and a week later their invoice is paid by way of bank autopay.

The Redeeming Process

1. 1.   The person presents the coupon upon arrival or checkout at the merchants place of business. (The order could be placed at home for pick up or delivery. That process could be done by simply placing a box to be checked in the ad. The customer would then see a page showing pick up or delivery as well as a method of paying with a credit card.)
   2.  The person or the merchant scans the merchants QR code to enter the transaction into the system and identifies the Merchant and the item being purchased.
      NOTE: In case of a merchant who has multiple colors or sizes in a category, a second window would open with a list of the various options and a check box would be pressed to select the items then a send button would be pressed.
      In the case of various categories, each category would have it’s own QR code.
   3. The entire transaction has now been sent to accounting.  The amount of donation is applied to the merchants invoice and a text is sent to the consumer thanking them for their participation.
      It may be advisable to send a text to thank the Merchant as well.
   4. This action will guarantee to the person that the merchants donation will be paid!

The Accounting Process

1. 1.  The merchants account is set up so it is auto paid once a month.
   2. The merchant is emailed a statement at the end of each month.
   3. Payment processing will be done on the 10th day after the statement is sent.
   4. Merchant will receive documentation yearly showing the annual donations for tax purposes.

Please note the only “cost” incurred by the merchant is when the merchant decides to ask for help preparing and posting his ads.

It is important to point out, this project could not have been done efficiently without AI.
