kommingle: The Active Social Network

kommingle is dedicated to connecting groups of friends with companies that offer group discounts, but it is more than coupons and discounts. It is the active social network.
 
SAN ANTONIO - Aug. 21, 2013 - PRLog -- kommingle. What a strange word. It is derived from the word commingle which means to mix or become blended. This is the main idea behind the company. No, we are not going to toss people into a giant blender and make a human smoothie. It is about people coming together and socializing but with a twist.

 

The mantra of kommingle is to introduce the two worlds of socializing and saving money together in a collision that sets forth a new meaning to the phrase “going out”. Affiliated with CiCi's Pizza, Orange Leaf Frozen Yogurt, and several others, we strive to bring together groups of friends with companies which offer group discounts. In doing so, everyone receives a great benefit.

 

kommingle was founded in 2008 by a Computer Science student at the University of Texas at San Antonio named Anton Moczygemba. Anybody that knows Anton knows that he is far from being a social butterfly. He has always felt more at home when behind a computer screen, and his goal was to build a virtual gateway to creating social environments in the real world using technology.

 

To various restaurants, bars, and local hangouts around the city of San Antonio, kommingle is a mobile marketing platform used to increase traffic to their locations by giving customers the added incentive of exclusive discounts and coupons. The subscriptions are very affordable, and the concept of integrating the power of geolocation with today's social society is brilliant and creates a world of open doors for any merchant.

 

To the people; however, kommingle is something so much more. It is not just a tool, but a new and innovative way to keep your friends close and your wallets closed. It is a way to connect with your friends and family through the traditional custom of having a meal together. It can be best described as an “Active Social Network”. kommingle connects people with each other in a virtual world just as any social network would, but it provides them with the tools necessary to put an emphasis on ACTIVE. It is a way for people to save money, but our main goal is to get people away from their computers, out of their houses, and out into the world.

 

With the growth of the computer industry, the amount of face-to-face human interaction is sadly dwindling. Don't get me wrong; we are definitely not against technology by any means. We are simply providing a way to merge the two. In fact, kommingle uses computers every day to make our product work using smartphones and tablets. A little confused? Not to worry. Here's how it works:

1) Sign up for FREE

People who wish to expand their horizons using the revolutionary services kommingle has to offer can visit www.kommingle.com and sign up for free. We so not believe in the stupidity of paying for discounts like similar services may ask of their customers. This site will always be free to the people no matter what. There is no hidden cost, no subscription, no feature that requires a credit card, no email spam, nothing. Just the opportunity to save money with friends.

2) Create a Group

Once a person has become a member, they can create a group. The website is very self-explanatory and easy-to-use. They can name their group anything they want (as long as it's not vulgar) and invite as many of their friends as they like. If their friends are not yet members on kommingle, well that has to change. Their friends will receive notifications about being invited to the group. All they have to do is click “Accept” and join in on the adventure.

3) Choose a Location

The creator of the group can browse through kommingle's affiliated locations and choose where they would like their group of friends to meet. They can also set up a date and time to meet, and kommingle will notify all members of the group.

4) Go Out

When members are ready to go out and meet with their friends, they can pick up their phones and go! As they near the destination, kommingle will tell them how much further they have to go, who else has already checked in, and what discounts they are eligible for. The group members will “check in” to the location using their phones or tablets and just flash them at the counter to receive their discount. The best part is EVERYBODY in the group gets the discount even if they pay separately.

5) SAVE MONEY WITH FRIENDS

The only thing left to do is relax and enjoy spending time with the people you connect with knowing that you are not breaking the bank.

 

Next time you feel like going out to eat with a friend or even by yourself, log on to www.kommingle.com and get connected. The kommingle team adds new features, new locations, and new discounts all the time. Don't be the only one of your friends that isn't a member getting invited to go out and have fun.
