Sixpence lets you discover what people around the world are buying—from the lunch your friend halfway across the globe just bought to the new skincare products your favourite celebrity picked up. Share your own purchases and get rewarded.
We're excited to introduce our web app as a preview of what's to come! While this version offers a glimpse into our platform's concept, it includes only a few core features of the full mobile experience we're building. Stay tuned for the mobile app launch, where we'll be unveiling a more comprehensive, interactive, and social experience!

Hey Julian, thanks for the upvote! The platform is designed not to expose your spending history but rather to allow users to share their lifestyles and life experiences through the purchases they make.
Humans naturally like to share every aspect of their lives for reasons like self-expression, social connection, and validation. Every experience we have is linked to a purchase, yet there isn’t a platform where user could share their purchases. Like how people use Instagram for sharing the best moments of their lives, and snapchat for snippets of their life, it could just become a normal thing to share your life experiences through purchases on Sixpence. Even if none of the social reasons are enticing enough for the user to share they could simply do it for the rewards and nothing else.
We want Sixpence to become "the" platform where every purchase made by every person across the world (from buying a jacket on a fashion app to buying ramen from a small food cart on the streets of tokyo) is shared as a social post.

Right now, users manually enter their purchase details on the web app to create a post. However, for the mobile app, we envision a smoother process where, whenever a user makes a purchase they receive a app notification prompting them to share it. With just a click, the purchase is shared—simple and seamless.
This looks pretty cool! Have you thought about making the web app more interactive before the mobile launch? I think some early feedback from web users could be really helpful. Anyways, congrats and best of luck!
