Sell Coins

Your Coins are a digital instrument that enables you to instantly begin selling your business’ own currency for customers to use themselves, or send as a gift card to others. This means you get the amazing flexibility to imagine any type of marketing or growth experience that leverages the power of your Coin. This eliminates the cost of antiquated gift card programs, and even replaces modern ones with something even more social and networked.

It also means you can immediately launch a new stream of revenue for your business. Enable consumers to buy your Coins now, and that cash flow can be accessed instantly instead of waiting for days. Offer incentives to kickstart sales, or even to incentivize customers at special events or holidays.

Set Up

To activate selling Coins simply go to Promote My Business > Sell Coins and toggle the switch on the right hand side to 'Active'.

Digital Experience for Customers

Empowering consumers to buy your Coins and use them as payment, or send them as gifts, is a completely digital experience that uses apps you’re already familiar with. When Coins are purchased, they’re held in the consumer's digital wallet, and once a gift has been created, it can be sent via any popular messaging or email application. (SMS, Whatsapp, Messenger, etc.) Each user who receives a gift of Coins becomes a new lead for your business, since Coins are trackable instruments.

Trackability

One of the greatest benefits of selling Coins is the socially trackable data that gets delivered to your business. Of course this would never exist with plastic gift cards or emailed links, but on Twism every interaction becomes a new opportunity to gain a new one, or support those who come often. In your Twism dashboard, we have provided a CRM function which enables you to instantly communicate and reward your customers at any time.
