Pepperoni

Hey! Thanks a lot! We have thought about adding multiple language versions of our platform and Spanish would be a great candidate for the first non-english version but we'd like to make sure we have more to offer for the non-Spain, Spanish-speaking markets. Very cool, would love to stay in touch. Could you DM me on twitter? @tomchck

Re; your question, it really depends on the jurisdiction you are in and best to get a legal opinion from lawyers that specialise in these things. For us we were able to avoid KYC rules since we are not really an exchange and we don't accept fiat from our users. We just pay out relatively small amounts of sats and there is virtually no risk of money laundering using our platform.

Localization for the Spanish-speaking market

Hey! The mobile version of our web app should work well. But we will be launching a mobile app eventually, yes.

It is, if you go to https://satsback.com/stores-list you should see some stores/services no matter what country are in just not as many as in select European markets. We're an early stage company and do plan on focussing on more regions in the future. We understand that there is a massive interest in Bitcoin in the Middle East.

Unfortunately I don't know of other bitcoin rewards companies in South America. Some of the stores we have connected should work from these countries but these are global platforms like Booking.com, Aliexpress. We would love to connect more local stores since we know how much people need Bitcoin in these markets. We try to do more of this in 2023.

Hey! You mean sats back rewards for buying mobile phones or mobile services?

Great question. We haven't been doing too much of this so far as most of our users are happy spending their fiat and saving in sats. However we will doing some orangepilling as part of a new product we are working on.

We've been focussing on the European markets that have been largely underserved by other bitcoin rewards companies. We're also Lightning-native and super excited by the Lightning network, so trying out things made possible by it such as; no minimum amounts before withdrawing, auto payouts to LN address. I believe we also have the largest amount of online stores connected compared to similar companies. We're working on other exciting things that will set us apart further. Stay tuned...

Definitely! its a bit of a manual process for now but would love to set this up. Will be in Amsterdam later this week so talk more about it there? I'll be in a Satsback.com tshirt :)

Thanks! We're actively working on connecting a bunch of stored in Turkey. We shoud have some news on that front soon™️ You could help us by letting us know what are the most popular onces in Turkey that you would like to see connect. Thanks in advance.

Please don't do shitcoining. It's a sin! It is Bitcoin only, not all that crapto shit.

Hey, I haven't used any crypto products for a while now so hard for me to comment how Bitcoin / LN wallets compare but I think we have made a ton of progress with UX til now so it will just get better with time. I remember using PCs and the internet in the 90s and it was horrible to use and look where we are now. These things just takes time and we just need to keep pushing.

Hey! Yes, you can go to https://satsback.com/stores-list and select your country to check what is available. However, it will be mostly global stores / services as we haven't focussed much on connecting many stores specific to the African region. Would love to do that, just need to take this a region at a time.

Wow, good one. It must be that bitcoiners will go out of their way to help you if they see that you're also fighting the good fight, helping others understand Bitcoin and the importance of sound money. Coming from an ordinary career in the telco industry, I'm still surprised by how responsive, helpful, and generous with their time other bitcoiners are. Love you all 🧡

Thanks! We keep trying to add more stores from other regions so do check back in. I think eventually all brands will need to offer bitcoin rewards to stay relevant :)

🧡
