SPS Proposal: Empowering Communities with a Mobile Coupon Service on the Steem Blockchain
Executive Summary
We're excited to propose the development of "Steem Coupons aka ETAKOO", a groundbreaking mobile coupon service built on the Steem Blockchain. By offering tangible rewards for users' social activities and creative contributions, we aim to transform the social media experience.
Project Description
Steem Coupons is an innovative platform where users can earn, share, trade, and utilize mobile coupons in real-life scenarios. Our service aims to bridge the gap between the digital and physical realms, addressing the lack of tangible rewards in traditional social media platforms.
Steem Coupons will be a user-friendly platform where people can earn Steem tokens by creating engaging content, which can then be converted into mobile coupons. These coupons can be redeemed at various physical and online retailers, offering a unique and tangible incentive for users to engage with the platform.
Implementation Strategy
The implementation of Steem Coupons will be carried out in three stages:
Earning: Users earn Steem tokens by creating engaging content on the platform, participating in community activities, or promoting the service on other platforms.
Conversion: Users can convert their earned Steem tokens into mobile coupons using our platform. The process will be simple, user-friendly, and efficient, making it easy for users to enjoy their rewards.
Redemption: Users can redeem their mobile coupons at various physical and online retailers, enjoying real-world benefits from their social media activities.
Potential Impact
Steem Coupons brings numerous benefits to the Steem community and beyond:
Enhances User Engagement: By offering tangible rewards, Steem Coupons provides a compelling incentive for users to engage actively with the platform.
Promotes Economic Activity: Steem Coupons facilitates economic activity by enabling users to earn and spend within the platform and at associated retailers.
Strengthens Community Bonds: The platform encourages interaction and collaboration among users, thereby fostering a strong sense of community.
Promotes Adoption of Steem Blockchain: By showcasing a unique application of the Steem blockchain that integrates with everyday life, Steem Coupons can attract new users and enhance the visibility and usage of the blockchain.

Future Potential
With the trend of digitalization accelerating globally, mobile coupons are set to play a significant role in the future of retail and commerce.

Events

Our mobile coupon platform, powered by Steem blockchain, has immense potential to redefine how businesses and consumers interact. The capability of our platform extends beyond traditional coupon services and can seamlessly integrate into various aspects of daily life, making it a highly versatile tool for businesses and consumers alike.
One of the groundbreaking features of our platform is the ability to host events using virtual coupons. These coupons can serve as tokens or tickets that creators can exchange for promises or rewards they offer. For example, an artist might offer a limited edition print to the first 100 users who claim a specific virtual coupon, or a retailer might offer a significant discount to users who collect a certain set of coupons.
This kind of innovative engagement leverages the power of blockchain technology to make transactions transparent, secure, and decentralized. As every transaction is recorded on the blockchain, users can be confident in the authenticity of their coupons and the reliability of the promised exchange.
Furthermore, by utilizing the Steem blockchain, we can ensure that everything on our platform can be traded, creating a vibrant and active marketplace. This capability opens up endless possibilities for expansion and new features, including auctions, direct user-to-user sales, and even the potential for users to create their own virtual coupons for personal events or promotions.
Our platform's potential is indeed limitless, as it is backed by the power of blockchain technology. We believe this platform will play a vital role in the future of retail and e-commerce, ushering in a new era of consumer engagement and innovative marketing strategies.
We invite you to be part of this exciting journey and to witness how blockchain technology can revolutionize the world of mobile coupons. With your support and our relentless drive towards innovation, we are confident that we can create a platform that not only meets the demands of today but also anticipates the needs of tomorrow.

Red means inactive, yellow means active but not receiving payments (because it has less votes than the return proposal), green means active and receiving payments. The displayed sum comes from the SPS API and, if I remember correctly, it will be updated as soon as the start date of your proposal is reached.
