Voucherry, a “Good” Groupon, Helps Causes, SocialEarth

Written by on August 2, 2011 in CSR - No comments

What is Voucherry?
First, I’d like to introduce Voucherry, a deal site similar to Groupon but with a community-based approach. The site thrives on your network and rewards you for growing it. Orlando was recently the first city launched with deals and more regions are coming soon. There also are prize contests for the growing the largest network and an online store where cherries, or points, can be redeemed. The site is new and ripe for the picking (literally), but poses a particularly good prospect to keep SocialEarth growing with its causes initiative.

How to use it with SocialEarth
The most important aspect of Voucherry is that 2 percent of every deal purchased goes to causes. You pick the cause. Your farm, or network, benefits the cause by inviting friends, using cherries and buying deals. This is where SocialEarth comes in.

We are one of the first causes to partner with Voucherry. When you join Voucherry through SocialEarth’s custom link (http://voucherry.com/invitation/socialearth) you will be added to SocialEarth’s farm. Your cause will automatically be set to SocialEarth and anyone you invite will also have SocialEarth selected by default.

SocialEarth’s cause profile differentiates from a personal “deal snagging” profile by allowing the cause to receive up to 2 percent of every deal purchased. Thus helping sustain SocialEarth. Want to learn more? Watch the causes video.
