Potluck

Potluck is a speculative community rewards sharing program proposal built upon the values of mutual aid. The idea is centered around the issue of wealth distribution: simply put, the rich just get richer while the poor get poorer. A microscopic example of this would be how loyalty programs reward higher-spending customers with free items and discounts they may not actually want or need. We propose a mobile app solution to consolidate and distribute rewards from partner companies that would allow transfer of rewards between users.
