Shopin lets you experience a smarter, more personal way of shopping online and offline by building a decentralized Amazon on the blockchain, using a universal shopper profile and cryptocurrency.

Shopin is a universal shopper profile platform that delivers the most personal shopping experience on retailers' websites, apps, and stores based on shopper preferences and purchase history data. Shoppers are in full control of their data for the first time with a cryptocurrency to reward them when their attention is engaged with ads, content, and loyalty. Shopin empowers retailers to offer better product recommendations, easier and more secure transactions, and more valuable customer rewards using blockchain and Artificial Intelligence technology.
