fraisr Information

fraisr (www.fraisr.com) is an online marketplace for goods and services that allows people to buy and sell for a good cause: Between friends, from celebrities to their fans, or from brands to their followers. A seller initially chooses the cause and the amount to be donated following his sale - with donations ranging from minimum 5% to 100%. This social impact of each fraisr-sale dramatically increases the social relevance of an offering or a transaction - creating more visibility among (facebook) friends and (Twitter) followers and valuable social reputation for both seller and buyer. Besides offering sellers the ability to support their individual causes, fraisr teams up with a selected group of renown NGO´s, including Amnesty, the Red Cross, Reporters without borders and many others. These charities are key partners, as they promote their respective fraisr-channel to their facebook-fans, Twitter-followers and newsletter-recipients. This generates substantial reach and credibility for featured sellers and brands. With fraisr there is now for the first time a social relevance to commerce in social networks that extends beyond a purely „consumic“ self-display and that is very much in line with the Zeitgeist of today's online culture: Commerce with a cause – consume and do good.
