**Brief Description**
Buy with fiat - get DOT cashback for online purchases - bringing DOT cashback to everyday shopping for Polkadot wallet users.

We’ve integrated with all major affiliate networks. Based on those integrations, we are now able to send wallet users to 10,000+ retailers, and we are growing rapidly.
We’ve integrated with all major affiliate networks. Based on those integrations, we are now able to send wallet users to 16,000+ retailers, and we are growing rapidly.
How it works: A user purchases any product they wish to, pays as they usually would (credit card or any payment method), and we know how much DOT cashback they deserve and when they are entitled to receive that DOT cashback (assuming they don't return the purchased goods).

We’ll run an omnibus wallet on Gate.io and accumulate, for each user, the DOT cashback that they receive from the different merchants. The user chooses when to claim their accumulated cashback tokens and move them on-chain.

**Team Motivation**

Bring is all about bridging and connecting Web2 and Web3 ecosystems.
We do so by integrating **a proven cashback model** into Polkadot’s framework, benefiting wallets, users,
and the ecosystem as a whole.

**Need the project meet:**

Major challenges wallets are straggling with:
1. Attract new users
2. Keeping users engaged and staying top-of-mind
3. Generate income to sustain and grow their business, w/o compromising the user’s experience.

**How did you identify these needs?**

* Chrome extension: the cashback experience and offering is embedded within the user’s day-to-day browsing routine and connected to the wallet, so no matter the user’s personal shopping preferences and behavior - we have full coverage on both experiences (mobile and desktop)

## Future Plans

As part of creating a **broad framework for DOT rewards** in general (the cashback integration is the first one), we're working on 'Task to Earn' offerings. DApps can offer DOT rewards on activities, incentivising current and new investors to Earn more DOT. The DOT rewards could be implemented in various verticals as Move to Earn (health & lifestyle), Games, Rewarded Social activities, Data Sharing and more.

- We’ve recently successfully integrated with Yoroi wallet (1 million+ installs)
- We’ve successfully delivered the first version of this system and launched it on the Casper blockchain which are now adding the browser-extension element as well. We’ve also integrated with Aurora wallet, the demo is fully functional and there’s a waiting list of users who wish to use it.
- We’ve completed a SAFE investment round and have the funds needed to successfully execute this

## **Comparison: Bring VS Raise**
Technical Overview:

**Diverse & Scalable vs. Single Integration**
Bring: Open source - **designed to be used by any Polkadot builder**
Raise: Native integration - limited to one - Polkadot app

**Architecture**
1.Versatile Infrastructure for DOT Rewards: a comprehensive infrastructure designed to support various DOT reward types, with cashback rewards as the first of many applications.
2.Our codebase is open source MIT license, enabling security audits, comprehensive RESTful API and community contributions.
3.Our system includes a built-in revenue-sharing mechanism, ensuring a seamless revenue cut for the Polkadot builder.

**Performance Optimisation mechanism**
AB Testing, Reporting, Analytics

**Support Multiple Tokens**
Bring enables wallets to reward their users with a variety of Polkadot tokens, rather than a one limited offer, so the user can choose how they'd like to get their rewards

**Quick & Easy Integration**
1. A ready made white label iFrame template to be integrated and adjusted to the wallet's brand, as quickly as 'Plug-and-Play'
2. An API for an easy integration.

**Diverse User Experience**
Bring's integration can be implemented as DOT cashback or rewards in various ways:
1. Powerful popup offerings while browsing (Chrome extension)
2. Wallet's portal - users can browse through the offering via a dedicated section within the wallet (websites/native apps) - engage with the wallet
3. Organic mobile experience
