[RyanJi]

Hi, DEV's. You need to add token details to permit participants to join the idea!

[CryptoRobert]

How do you plan to attract merchants to use Agate?

Really good questions and very important part of the project for sure, do you have a marketing plan for that?

I'll just add another question to this.

Do you have a dedicated team for PR and marketing and how much funding will go into marketing? It is important aspect of each project these days.

Thank you for asking this question, as you can see Ehsan Jahandarpour who is Agate’s CMO is one of the top 20 Growth Hackers in the world from Forbes magazine stand points also is contributor for entrepreneur.com and many more famous tech magazine, who has designed a very descriptive and powerful marketing strategy for pre ICO and after ICO, also as you can see in fund distribution chart available in Agatechain.org website about %40 of total collected fund would allocate to Marketing, growth hacking, PR,… not to mention we are directly working with two major PR agency and several other journalist and influencer which you will see some of the result in next few weeks as per our marketing road-map.

Now that's what I call an answer thank you!

I agree on the excellence of this answer. "one of the top 20 Growth Hackers in the world from Forbes magazine stand points" is in itself already a great marketing tool.

Do you build a centralized crypto PayPal or will it be decentralized and smart contract driven? That is what's going to happen anyway. If this is a fully centralized service I don't see it's longterm viability. Could you talk about your plans in that regard?

What I like the most is the ability to integrate AGATE with almost any e-commerce website or in-store merchant.Was this already tested and if it was can you give any links or results or tests?

Yes you can test them all, please visit our Github rep @ https://github.com/agatechain and click on desire eCommerce platform/plugin then you can either install the app/plugin on your store and test it OR as we already installed them in our demo environment you can test it live, as an example for Woocommerce (the worlds most popular eCommerce platform you can test it here http://www.agate.services/product/test/ simply add the sample product in your basket/card then in checkout and choose Agate as the method of payment. )

I did not know this was already in the test phase, thank you for sharing

[SeemanLamem]

Now that's what I call an answer thank you!

My pleasure

Marketing and PR are huge factors in the outcome of a project. You can have the best product out there, but if you can't surface, you can call it quits.

Thanks for note, YES we truly  believe the same that's why we allocated a big portion of invested fund (%40)  into marketing and hired top of the market people and agency.

Those kind of actions could get you to the hard cap in no time.

my pleasure

developing and marketing should imho have the same value in a project because one can not survive without the other. It's a synergy of both efforts at just the right time. And if you want the best results you have to get the help of industry professionals.

I agree, today's all about good marketing.

Aha so the public sale starts in October. so you still have a lot of time to raise funds.

Pre-sales stages are also PUBLIC and everyone can contribute with minimum of $60.

Thanks for the information. so it is not a private sale - just a pre-phase to the general ICO sale.

Do you accept ETH only?

ETH , BTC, BCH, LTC, DASH and may be Credit and Debit card but this part has not finalised yet

What is the situation with CC and debit card payment options? Are you negotiating at the moment or?

How much I understand hey are still working on this issue....this will certainly be resolved.

it's actually not an issue at all, we negotiate on rate with provider.

Since the negotiations are already at this stage, I believe that this will be resolve soon

[cmdr1]

Agate is a great project with a lot of work already done behind them and app already in beta, though from what I was able to see it is Android.Do you have any iOS app already?

We developed both User and Merchant Apps for both Android and IOS platform however as you might know due to new Apple policy they won't any blockchain project/ICO app to be release on App store hence our strategy is to keep developing IOS as well and once we switch to main-net and got all approval speak with Apple to officially release our APP.

I'm not familiar with this Apple's policy, does that mean that most developers will give up developing iOS apps and focus on Android?

Why to even go with IOS then if there are such complications?

We were in middle of IOS development when unfortunately Apple changed their policy , BUT we keep developing the IOS app just in case if they changed their policy so we publish it shortly.

It would be a risk of leaving the development of the iOS platform, and there is still a possibility that Apple will change policy

Risk of leaving....you don't have to risk anything, you can simply postpone it. Android is much widely used anyway.

And not a bad thing to have iOS app ready once Apple lifts ban.and they will  do that,its just the matter of time.

I agree it's only a matter of time as most closed systems are now opening to crypto looking into the future.

[!vanovi4]

If Agate is the most perfect decentralized platform in the world for immediate payment without the risk of volatility for the implementation of the crypto receiver, then in the near future it will be successful.

Well I wouldn't like them to rely only on marketing. Marketing can make yo a good head start bud if the product is shit it will loose on popularity really fast.

You need to pass some requirements, I think you need to prove you have over 1 million dollars of assets and over 200k per year income.
