Why you decide to launch your application in the market of Asia, rather than in developed countries?

Residents in Asia are much younger than in developed countries. They are more actively involved in the search for interactive offers and here sellers need to offer innovative marketing solutions to get to the buyer. HotNow allows effectively solve problems involving customers for small and medium-sized businesses, and also provide optimal promotional offers for consumers.

Hi there! How will  cost of the advertising coupon be calculated ?

The consumer translates HTKN to the merchant to to unblock a share. Seller determines the amount of HTKN necessary for unlock each shares. And also with each purchase, the user receives encouragements  in the form of HotPoint(s).

If your app will include game mechanics, how can a user get more tokens?

Though HotNow App can already claim more than 600,000 downloads of its application and good brand penetration in Thailand, the idea has momentum that Boonyawattanapisut hopes will help vendors in the entire region gamify themselves by 2020. Via @Forbes

Do you intend to open up to the American market and  when ?

In the near future we are planning to work with the SE Asia.

HotNow is built to be the most effective marketing solution to reach Millennials because they are much more price sensitive and require unique and innovative marketing strategies to trigger decisions and purchases

Do you plan to implement the possibility of exchanging crypto currency directly in the HotNow application or do user have to use the crypto-currency purse separately?

Just read the content on the website and it is a very interesting project, with good usercases! What's your plan to insure your ICOs investors will make maximum returns after launching on exchanges

[nikolayenko]

Really great ICO! HoToKeN business model will be booming...  With the help of which offers your system will stimulate the interest of  consumers?

Due to the provision of coupons, HotNow platform will encourage users to write reviews about the merchant, do product reviews, visit new places, add photos and perform other missions, including games.

This creates clear advantages for the marketing promotion of traders who support the program, and also provides an increase in attention to the application itself.

How does your  HotNow application differ from the interactive tips given by Google's smart intellect, suggesting that the user also get acquainted with the offers of trades ?

[vadimazov]

HotNow is very attractive project for our business. What should a trader do to start working with your application?

Merchant should create the shop profile on the HotNow platform and then he can publish marketing programs or digital coupons at zero cost.

These promotions are seen by users whose proximity and preferences make them a very receptive audience  for these offers

Nice proposal guys! If you close the sale in March, then in what period do you plan to launch the tokens on the exchange?

Public sale ends March 20. Everyone’s reservation tokens (RHTKN) will be converted to HTKN (Stellar) when the platform is complete in May/June timeframe. Tech team is working hard on this!

How do you monitor the security of the system?

How do you monitor the security of the system?

HotNow uses both formal proof models and empirical tests to ensure the correctness, security , resiliency, and capacity of their systems. Furthermore , HotNow's transactional processes have explicitly designed transfer firewalls that limit the amount of value a single interaction can produce and also isolate through both logical firewalls and time delays the propagation of any failure of process or exploit of implementation to that one micro-service function or transaction.

HotNow’s advantage - displaying the best possible  promotions to the right people at the right time.  So, in that sense, HotNow might be like those aforementioned giants, just in its own specific niche, with a casual-app-game as its platform of choice; where all the network’s activities and transactions are written to a blockchain (type) ledger, with an open protocol of rules in code that serves all its cuttingedge components .

What brands have you already tried to advertise the shares with your application?

[GseaFred11]

I see that your ICO will have a great future and I am applying for bounty campaign.
But one  question does not give me rest. Why did you decide to launch your application in the market of Asia,  rather than in developed countries ?

HotNow allows effectively  solve problems involving customers for small and medium-sized businesses, and also provide optimal promotional offers for consumers.

Who knows is your referral program still active, can I use it to get a bonus?

Hi everyone. Developers used the term of Hotpoints in the white page, but I can not understand it. Is HTKN and HotPoints the same things?

No, it is not. HotPoint is the points that are used internally by HotNow as a metric system to track and calculate consumers’ contributions to the network and as a part of customer relationship management service and loyalty program that HotNow provides for its merchants. When the buyer attains a certain number of HotPoints, he will be rewarded with HTKN.
