Shopping Solo?
Technology has given us ways to be more connected than ever, but are we really connecting? Shopping in retail used to be social as you connect with salespeople, clerks and grocery baggers, but these social aspects are no longer a necessary part of the trip. Self-checkouts and online shopping allow you to make purchases completely by yourself.
rBux Connects
rBux is the online social sharing platform that seeks to create community. Our hope is that we can make online shopping more than just a solo activity.
We connect people to influencers that they trust and create communities around product groups. rBux also provides consumers opportunities to work with brands, operating as ambassadors who get recognition for spreading the word about products. With rBux, you can become part of the conversations people are having about products and see referral conversations live. The best and greatest products are shared by influencers who are experts in specifics areas.
Nearby Feature
A great example of social shopping is our “nearby” sharing feature. This function on our app lets you send referrals to people in close proximity to you. In the middle of a conversation about a product, both members can open the rBux app and share referrals immediately. For those without the app, the messaging functions still make it very easy to share the products during the discussion.
Join the Conversation
We want you to be able to connect with people around you, and to those who share your unique interests. We are excited about the future and want to make online shopping communities more valuable by providing rewards to those who initiate the sharing! Learn more and get started today at rBux.com.
Make sure to check out the nearby feature on the rBux app. Available on the App Store and Google Play.
