Merchants will now have the ability to also A-Drop promotions to users by geo-location

Dear Gatcoiners,

Welcome to our regular bi-weekly update.

Singapore: We’re pleased to announce that we’ve moved into new office spaces in Singapore. All dev and admin functions will now be processed through Singapore.

App & Platform: We are working like madmen on the app and platform. There is no sleep, a lot of pressure, but we’re incredibly excited at the same time. There have been some significant improvements to the demo we released last year, and we are planning to release an updated systems overview over the coming months. One significant change, for example, is the ability of merchants to A-drop live promotions (discounts, free items, buy-one-get-one free etc.). Promotions can be immediately redeemed in-store, gifted or traded for GAT Coins. This provides users with instant gratification, and will be an important additional feature of the system design.

Side-note: the GAT system we are building is complex, slick, and incredibly disruptive. However, all good things take time. You may notice we are just keeping our heads down to ensure we deliver an amazing product. This is the way it should be. Expect good things by the end of the year.

Matt Walker: As we announced in the last update, Matt Walker has joined GATCOIN. You can read Matt’s LinkedIn Profile here https://www.linkedin.com/in/mattwalker80/. Matt brings a great deal of experience to the team, and will be working primarily on system architecture and managing dev-ops.

Dev Hires: We continue to aggressively expand the dev team. We will announce more new joiners in May.

Branding Work: In anticipation of system launch, we are also hard at work re-vamping our image and branding. While the existing branding worked well for the Token Sale, we are now shifting all attention to user & merchant adoption. Our new marketing and communications will therefore highlight consumer experience and value to merchants. You’ll see some big changes to our website this year as GATCOIN transforms itself into a mainstream promotions and loyalty platform.

That’s all for this update. Stay tuned for the next update in a couple of weeks.

As always, if you have any questions, or would like to join the GATCOIN conversation, we would encourage you to join our Telegram community at https://t.me/gatcoin.
