Chirpify

Chirpify turns replies and comments into cash, enabling businesses and consumers to buy, sell, donate, fundraise and pay in-stream on social media.

These are social, device agnostic, frictionless, in-stream, one step payments. We do this in real-time at scale. By removing all frictions of a traditional payments or e-commerce system, Chirpify transforms social platforms from broadcast to transactional.

The combination of frictionless one-step transactions and the real-time reach of social media is what makes Chirpify such a powerful platform.

If people can’t pay in-stream, it’s not social commerce. It’s social advertising.
