Brief

Poze recognized a unique opportunity to combine the popular realm of online dating with the growing desire among individuals to contribute to social causes. They envisioned a mobile app that would go beyond superficial connections and foster relationships based on shared values and a passion for making a difference. This app would not only help users find potential partners but also empower them to support charitable organizations and engage with social impact initiatives. By seamlessly integrating dating and philanthropy, Poze aimed to create a community of like-minded individuals who are passionate about finding love and making a positive impact on the world.

The Challenge

Traditional dating apps often focus on matching individuals based on shared interests or physical attraction, but they often lack a deeper connection based on values and social impact. Poze aimed to address these challenges by developing a platform that would:

Align Values: Connect individuals based on their shared passion for social causes, allowing them to find partners who are not only compatible but also aligned with their desire to make a difference.
Facilitate Meaningful Connections: Encourage deeper connections by providing a platform for users to engage in conversations about social impact and philanthropy, fostering a sense of shared purpose and creating opportunities for meaningful interactions.
Empower Charitable Giving: Integrate charitable giving into the dating experience, allowing users to support causes they care about while connecting with potential partners, creating a unique and rewarding experience that goes beyond traditional dating apps.
Ensure User Engagement: Create a user-friendly and engaging app experience that encourages users to actively participate and contribute to social causes, fostering a sense of community and promoting long-term engagement with the platform.
Gamify the Experience: Introduce elements of gamification to make the dating and giving experience more fun and interactive, encouraging users to explore the app’s features and connect with others.

Proposed Solution

A mobile app was developed from the ground up, incorporating a unique bidding system and intuitive UI to facilitate meaningful connections and charitable giving. This involved:

Designing a user-friendly interface that seamlessly integrates dating and charitable giving features.
Implementing a bidding system that allows users to bid on dates with other users, with proceeds going to the chosen charity.
Developing features that promote social impact and encourage users to engage with charitable causes.

Key Deliverables

A user-friendly and engaging mobile dating app with integrated charitable giving features.

A unique bidding system that allows users to support non-profit organizations.

Features that promote social impact and encourage user engagement with charitable causes.

Key Feature Enhancements

Profile Creation with Social Impact Focus

Poze encourages users to create profiles that go beyond basic information like age and location, allowing them to showcase their personalities, interests, and values. Users can select from a wide range of social causes they are passionate about, such as environmental conservation, animal welfare, education, or poverty alleviation. They can also share their volunteer experiences, highlight organizations they support, and express their desire to make a positive impact on the world. This allows users to connect with others who share their values and creates opportunities for meaningful conversations around social impact, leading to more fulfilling and compatible connections.

Charity-Centric Matching Algorithm

The app's matching algorithm goes beyond traditional criteria like age and location, prioritizing connections between users who support similar charitable causes. By analyzing users' social impact preferences, donation history, and engagement with various causes within the app, the algorithm identifies potential matches who are likely to share a genuine connection and a desire to contribute to the same causes. This ensures that matches are based on shared values and a desire to make a positive impact, leading to more compatible and meaningful relationships.

Unique Bidding System

Poze introduces a unique bidding system that gamifies the dating experience while empowering users to support charitable causes. Users can bid on dates with other users, using virtual "coins" purchased within the app. The bidding process adds an element of excitement and competition, as users can increase their bids to improve their chances of securing a date. The proceeds from these bids are then donated to the chosen charity of the "Pozer" (the user who initiates the date). This innovative approach not only adds an element of fun and engagement to the dating process but also encourages users to contribute to social good in a meaningful way.

Transparent Donation Tracking

To maintain transparency and build trust with users, the app provides a detailed and transparent tracking system for all donations made through the platform. Users can view a comprehensive history of their donations, including the date, amount, and recipient charity. They can also track the overall impact of their contributions, seeing how their support has helped various charitable organizations achieve their goals. This transparency fosters accountability and encourages users to continue engaging with the platform and supporting causes they care about.

Social Impact Features

Poze goes beyond basic dating functionalities by incorporating various features that promote social impact and encourage user engagement with charitable causes. This includes the ability to share information about their favorite charities, participate in challenges or fundraising events organized within the app, and discover new opportunities to contribute to social good. Users can also create and share "impact stories" highlighting their philanthropic activities and inspiring others to get involved. These features foster a sense of community and encourage users to actively participate in making a positive difference.
