What is Phlok?
11 Sep 2014Phlok is a social network that makes ‘shop local’ make sense. Coming to Bramhall soon so you can save whilst you spend!
Digital currency worth real money encourages connections between local independent businesses and your community, creating more visibility for local businesses and incentivises consumers to shop local more often.
Phlok points can be collected and spent with any business on Phlok in any town. When points are collected, the consumer broadcasts their activity with the donating business on the Phlok network (and other social networks).
When the customer spends phlok points (again broadcasting this activity) Phlok pays the receiving business cash to the value of the points spent. The business then gets paid in full for its item or service while the customer gets it for free.
