Meet HelloCoin – a Social Platform for Sharing Online Shopping

If you’re an online shopper you’ll want to read this post!

What happens every day on your social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram? You see people taking pictures of their purchases, and pictures of products asking if they should buy them, right? Well when you shop online you can’t really do that.

But what if there was a place that you could shop, share, save money with coupon codes, oh and earn money…. HelloCoin Cash that is? Doesn’t that sound great?

I signed up with name, email address, and password and was in! From there you are on your profile page and you can do a little tour that will explain everything about HelloCoin and how you can get started.

I wasn’t really sure what I wanted to buy so I began by using the search bar to find some coupons for Babies R Us, and Kohls. Neither came up. So I searched a couple other stores and they didn’t come up either. Weird. So instead I   went back to the homepage and clicked on the coupon category that I wanted “Baby & Kids” and there is was – Babies R Us. I also sound Kohls and the other sites I originally searched for. Not sure why the search bar doesn’t work so many just skip that part and go to the coupon category area and find your store that way.

After not finding anything I needed I decided to see if they had any barnes and noble coupons because my husband has been obsessively reading lately. I’m talking, 6 new books in the month of July alone. HelloCoin found 4 coupons and 22 sales. I chose to Follow the store so now I’ll be updated when they add new coupons!

I found saw a 15% off coupon so I clicked on it, it opened the Barnes & Noble site in a separate window and then I got this pop-up on the HelloCoin site telling me that I activated the coupon.

Now if I only knew what kind of books he wanted I’d be in business. I could share them with my Community/Friends and once I make a purchase (here’s the good part) I can post it to Facebook and Twitter! So see, just like if I was in the store making a purchase and wanted to share it on my social media platforms!

HelloCoin also offers HelloCoin Cash which you can earn making online purchases through the HelloCoin website. HelloCoin Cash are virtual cash – like points that you can later use on the purchase of gift cards, iPads, Mac computer, Kindles, and so much more!

There are two ways to earn the points.

First way is like I said, shop! When you find a coupon you like and you visit the online store by clicking a link on HelloCoin, , it automatically activates HelloCoin Cash earnings for you. You will know if you will earn the points if you see the little plus signs.

The next way to earn points is to submit a coupon that is not already in the HelloCoin system and every person that shops using your coupon, you will earn 50% of the HelloCoin cash! I see this being a huge advantage to those who are big time into couponing for sure.

So isn’t it great! You get everything you love without leaving the house! I know I am excited to use HelloCoin and I’m sure it’ll save me a lot of money too.
