We started Honey specifically to enable people and small businesses to pay each other electronically without using a “middle man” to take a piece of the action. What we found along the way was VERY interesting and scared the heck out of a few of the big boys.

Honey does give free payments. Why? Simply because payments create data. Data about your businesses that you can use to better serve your customers and community. We help you make sense of that data and give you a simple to use mobile tool to effectively use it.

So there is a gotcha? No, there isn’t. You have no obligation to use the tool and free payments are yours. Simply download the app and start using it. Augment your existing payments system. If you want to communicate with your customers or your community prospects, simply turn on that function.

Some Quick FAQs

Data - how is it used? Privacy is REALLY important to us. In fact, we don’t just have a privacy policy, we have a data constitution. The right to privacy can never be overstated and will never be overlooked at Honey. We use lots of aggregate data to predict trends and consumer behavior, but one will never know any particular business or any individual, unless that individual requires that business to know them.

So what’s in it for my customer? Well our research shows that people love Main Street and their community! They crave relationships with their local merchants and they want you to be better educated on their needs. We intend to let them tell their favorite merchants what they want - and we hope that you will provide it to them. What’s better than having deals they love from their favorite merchants delivered directly to them inside of Honey? Well, feeling good about helping their community thrive!

Give me an example. Let’s say you are a taco truck owner and you have to choose a new location (there is construction in your usual spot). You can open Honey to help you determine a good alternative that will be the least disruptive to your existing customers. Our BI tool will look at traffic patterns etc. and help you determine the best place for you to relocate. Once you decide, then we can alert your existing customers as well as alert all tac lovers in the area that you will be in the neighborhood. You can even conduct a “first-time customer” promotion. The best part, all of this is done directly from your mobile phone!
