Tilt is a crowdfunding and peer-to-peer payment platform. It provides the services not only in the US, but also in Canada, UK and Australia. Its main target customers are anyone who is 18-24 years old. By using the app, users can collect money from a group of friends\/colleagues\/family members by creating a project in Tilt application, setting the amount of money desired and then inviting those contributors. Contributors make payment in just a few taps. The app also allows everyone to see who has or has not paid. I don\u2019t think this is a good feature to be embedded because of privacy protection. It should make the information visible to only the organizer. <\/p>\n
There are 3 ways for Tilt to make money. First, it charges 2.5% of the total amount raised in \u201cFundraising\u201d and commercial campaigns. Second, it charges 3% of processing fee if contributors use credit card. Third, it makes money by providing businesses with access to its extensive API. <\/p>\n
I think compared to Apple Pay, Venmo, Square Cash, Tilt does have a competitive edge of social engagement which is a great selling point to its target. However, I do not see yet how it can compete with Facebook and Viber payment. I believe in the future of mobile payment but I\u2019m not confident in Tilt making successful profit by transaction fees. Nonetheless, Tilt has a high potential to sell useful insights regarding customer behavior to businesses which are extracted from its data.<\/p>\n
