Have you ever felt like your hometown is not fully appreciated for its potential or the people are just not doing enough to promote all those beautiful places worth visiting? Feeling like changing something about it? If you’re the type of person who loves sharing their travel stories and you’re willing to help others to have a great discovery experience, Cool Cousin could be your best choice today. The Cool Cousin app is the best way to represent your hometown, support your favorite cafes or restaurants and influence thousands of travelers around the world.
Since their Cool Cousin Beta launched in 2016, the platform attracted over 500,000 users and facilitated traveling to over 65 destinations worldwide. Moreover, according to their whitepaper, in 2017, more than 6,000 people applied to become a Cousin. Therefore, after growing into a community of more than 1,000 cousins, Cool Cousin decided to expand and take the next step: they aim to become the world's largest decentralized travel agency. How will they do that?
Cool Cousin is building a decentralized ecosystem of locals and travelers which is powered by the crypto token called CUZ. Following that, CUZ will be built on the Ethereum blockchain that will ensure the security of exchanges between local and travelers around the world. The crypto token will facilitate spending, owning and delegating how tokens will be used by holders.
The Portrait of a Cousin
Essentially, when you become a cousin, you will represent the platform’s travel agent. A cousin will have to create a profile and include relevant information about places, bios, personal preferences, etc. Also, they will have to keep up with the content standards of Cool Cousin's business model.
Here are some of the qualities the team is looking for in locals who want to become future cousins:
• someone who’s proud of their city and lives it to the fullest
• someone who loves being around people and making others happy
• someone who enjoys telling stories and sharing their perspective
How does a Cousin earn tokens?
Within the platform, two types of locals are contributing to the community: Cousins and Pro-Cousins. Travelers can get free information from Cousins. However, to use some of the new features on the platform, they will have to pay them. For instance, when pro-cousins provide services that involve third-parties like booking hotels, restaurants, events, transportation, they will be paid in CUZ tokens by travelers. Furthermore, cousins can also earn more tokens by building itineraries, pre-travel consulting and offering “concierge services”.
Don’t worry if you don’t want to offer pro services; there are many more ways to earn tokens. Some of the main tasks all cousins can do in general to collect tokens are to:
keep the profile up-to-date;
add valuable content to the platform;
answer questions
promote Cool Cousin through social media networks
invite other users to become cousins
edit, suggest, correct content
Cousins are free to determine how much they will charge for the services they provide. Besides, travelers have the option to offer tips for the great information and services you provide. Tipping is made with CUZ token, so here's another reason for you to become a Cousin.
