This is an awesome idea! Would love to try this however I can't seem to get pass the signup using mobile. Probably a bug. If you guys get the execution right then this thing could fly. And by the way maybe you could filter out posted orders. I've saw like 'one night stand' and 'sex toys'. Totally bad for first impression lol
Congrats on the launch :) How is it different from https://grabr.io/en/. Good luck mate.
@praveenagol Thanks mate.
Both are communities targeting shoppers and travellers. With Everyly, Travellers tend to fulfil the orders in order to get the local currency of the destination (which is a big pain in itself) but with Grabr, they insert something as rewards which mostly doesn't fit the bill of the travellers.
My question is what about American customs? You would have to declare if there is something in your bag that is not yours.
@naseem_raad Good Q! You can either buy products in your name or declare it with customs and pay the custom fee cared by the shopper. It works either way, but nothing stops you from being a nice traveller with @everyly.
Curious about the safety and liability aspect, any plans to prevent people trying to misuse this to send across illegal items. Also curious if airport security might cause an issue?
Nice that you asked @sasank.
1. As far as the products, every order posted is vetted before reaching the final offer stage so no holes left.
2. We are working with airport authorities across major commerce countries to make things more easy, still never an issue as long as the items are legally binding.
But what we've seen is people tend to become friends over our platform, and then buy products for their new friend even escaping the custom fee :) It's a community.
Maker here :) Glad to put it out on PH.
Everyly is a community of shoppers and travellers, where the shopper gets to order anything he/she loves from anywhere in the world and travellers travelling to their city/country shops and delivers in on their way.
As a shopper, you can order your favourites not available in your country/ something hard and expensive to ship.
As a Traveller, you make some extra money as a reward for bringing it.
The crux is, travellers get to choose how much they want to be paid online, so the remaining amount is collected by the travellers in local currency of the destination (which is very hard to get) upon delivery.
Parallelly, we are also solving the two biggest authentication problems happening in the everyday commerce, which even the likes of Amazon and Ebay are not able to swear upon.
1. Fake products delivered - In India, you get a soapbox sometimes when you order a iPhone through Amazon.
2. fake currencies for tourists - As the tourists do not have any idea of the currencies being served in the country they're travelling to.
Here, the traveller is deemed to deliver the best product to get the right currency and the shopper has to give the right currency to get the right product.
All day here. Love to know the bads and goods, so we could build a better community :)
@tweetyunus Great idea! Execution is the success key. Congratulations! On the first glance, the platform is not in its simplest form, in terms of how you're driving the customer till the payment section, however undoubtedly a great start.
@ram_rayavarapu Thanks Ram! We're making it much simpler and better for sure :)
@tweetyunus much needed model. Seems I could now have my fav original Italian peep toes shopped....
Hello Mohamed, i love your idea! be careful on how it handles exceptions, i was trying to post but it seems you run out of cap on your locations api , heres what console says http://imgur.com/a/Gp7op . it should let you enter a city manually or something when the api fails, Thanks and my best wishes for this project
@cristiandav We just ran out of some free request limit :) It's updated and we've handled the above as well. Thanks CD!
Such an amazing concept and honestly the best way of getting things delivered, especially in countries that do not have reliable shipping infrastructure!
@tweetyunus Is there a way to include costs for travel based on weight, size, transportation and a set rate than on top of that for the traveler bringing the shipment directly through Everyly
@mweston Yes. The traveller gets to ask a reward that will include all the carry costs, tax and other such so there's never a loss for any.
