Ask HN: Review my Idea, Prospero.us
Below is my Pitch:
Prosperous is a web application that allows anyone to automatically donate a proportion of their credit/debit card purchases to go to the charities and non-profits they care about. The objective is to allow people to give to those in need while not worrying about how much or how often.
Customer/Problem(Donations): People are lazy and don't like the hassle of finding the right charity and remembering to donate often.
Customer/Problem (Charities): Charities need a way to reach new supporters and be able to reach a mass audience cheaply.
Product: Dead simple, easy to set up, automatic donations deducted from bank account based on credit/debit purchases.
Product: One stop shop for people to view charities and non-profits of all kinds. (Jumo like network)
Distribution/Pricing: People will set a percentage to be donated and we take a fee based on every transaction. (3.5%)
Demand Creation: Having a large amount of charities, the simplicity of donating, and the ability to view every donation made and create a tax deduction Form 1040, Schedule A for every user for that fiscal year.
I appreciate the feedback and advice! Please also let me know if this is worth pursuing. :)
