Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I’m Roy, the Co-Founder and CTO of Shakepay. For years, Shakepay has been laser-focused on making it easier for Canadians to buy and earn bitcoin. But as we’ve grown alongside our community, we realized there are more ways for us to make people’s financial lives a little easier. That’s why we’re stoked to add a new dimension to Shakepay: everyday payments using Canadian dollars. 🤔What’s Shakepay? Shakepay is a money app that allows Canadians to send money to friends, buy, earn, and send bitcoin or ethereum, and make payments effortlessly. You can shake your phone daily for bitcoin rewards, use your Shakepay Card and join a ShakeSquad to earn even more rewards, or just hang out on Reddit, Discord, and elsewhere with our awesome community. Meet our new everyday payments features 💰Direct deposit Deposit your paycheque and other payments directly into your account. We might spice up your paydays with a #shakepaid bonus of up to $1,000 in bitcoin. 🔁 Auto-buy You can choose to use a portion of your pay to auto-buy bitcoin or ethereum as soon as your paycheque lands in your account. 📬 Pay a bill Make payments for utilities, credit cards, and other life expenses. 💸 E-Transfer your friends Send money to anyone and share the love, one transfer at a time. Why Shakepay? At Shakepay, we want to reimagine financial services to give every Canadian their fair shake. That means: Simplicity and speed: Moving money should be as quick and easy as checking the weather. No frustrating fees: Maybe this should go without saying, but you shouldn’t have to pay fees just to access your own money. Rewards with lasting value: Earn bitcoin rewards just by shaking your phone every day, using your Shakepay Card, or joining a ShakeSquad. Customer service that cares: We're here for you, any day of the week – just give us a shake. Sounds like what you’ve been looking for? Download the app today and let us know your thoughts and feedback. Thank you for your support, and special thanks to Robleh for hunting us 💜 👉 Learn more about Shakepay: https://shakepay.com/

Congrats on the launch - I'm always happy to see Canadian fintechs shipping awesome products. Customer acquisition must be tough when you're competing with the big Canadian banks. Are you able to offer interesting rewards/incentives for new users? How are you approaching that opportunity?
Trev
@maxcameron Thank you Max! Absolutely, we're always looking for ways to distinguish ourselves and provide new incentives and rewards for our customers! Here are a few examples: - 2% cashback in BTC on card purchases - Shakepaid reimbursements on random card transactions - Free daily bitcoin rewards for daily active users (shake your phone once a day and get BTC) - The ability to passively stack BTC through rounding up purchases, auto-buys, no fees, etc

Love the UI. Looks slick!
Imo Bábics
Yes! We need more Bitcon products on PH. Good luck with your launch!
Art Assoiants
@imobbcs definitely agree. I think product people are intrinsically interested in building. And building and using bitcoin products is one of the finest experiences in life. A great way to invite outsiders into our world.
Patrick Valoppi
hey ?makers - how does one earn BTC or ETH through Shakepay? Is there any eligibility criteria for the user?
Trev
@patrickvaloppi there are many ways to earn rewards in BTC on Shakepay! With our Shakepay card you can earn up to 2% cashback in Bitcoin on all purchases, have a chance to be reimbursed in BTC on any purchase (#shakepaid), and also set "round ups" where you get BTC. Shakepay also has shaking sats to reward daily active users. Simply shake your phone every day to build up a streak of shakes. The longer the streak, the more BTC you earn each day all the way up to 1000 sats every day!
Patrick Valoppi
thanks @trev_sp - how does one qualify as a DAU to be able to earn BTC by shaking? Would a user need a minimum amount help in their account?

Corey Herscu
The scariest thing about crypto has always been its approachability and usability. ShakePay normalizes crypto for everyday transactions, which is a few steps forward toward mass adoption. Love it!
Shivam Jangra
Been following Shakepay for a while and love the product. All the best to the team!

Congrats on the launch. Are e-transfers supported just between Shakepay accounts or can users send money to people that don't use Shakepay?

Best app for Crypto purchases, has BTC and ETH, no withdrawal fees and free Satoshis for shaking phone! If you want to play safe and get people dear to you to invest - introduce them to Shakepay It’s very straightforward and intuitive to understand

Any thoughts of making a physical card for shakepay users? Would love to have one

Congratulations on the launch! I've been seeking an alternative, and I'll give it a try. I'll provide you with my feedback once I've had the chance to explore it. 👌

💡 Bright idea
Congratulations on the launch! The Direct deposit feature, in particular, sounds like a game-changer, and the potential for bonuses adds an exciting element to managing finances. I appreciate Shakepay's commitment to simplicity, transparency, and rewarding its users. Great work!

It's great seeing Canadian bitcoin makers share their work here. Not only to celebrate good effort, but to invite non-bitcoiners into the space *through* product.
