Designed and developed a community app enabling individuals to rent, swap, and share their personal possessions.

Shneebs is a Facebook-based tool for community lending and borrowing. Users can advertise items they want to lend or request to borrow from their network. Shneebs connects borrowers with lenders and helps manage the loan process, including tracking, reminders, and return enforcement. The platform aims to expand users’ reach beyond their social circles and will generate revenue through monetizing item advertisements. Future plans include commercial opportunities for equipment rental businesses. Central to the platform is a matching and control system, supported by user scoring, to ensure reliability in transactions.

Platform growth through SEO and off-site marketing, built-in app features for user referrals, and social referrals generated naturally when users lend goods to friends, with notifications prompting engagement and platform adoption.

Gamification & rewards

Gamification will motivate users with achievement points, enabling them to earn badges and rewards like Facebook credits for milestones and referrals.

We focus on developing a straightforward platform for community lending and borrowing by implementing a free loan book for tracking items and a paid system for listing goods. Our priority is to create a user-friendly experience, incorporating gamification elements like achievement points and badges to drive engagement. We emphasize transparency and trust through user ratings, allowing feedback without impacting rewards. This approach ensures a practical, effective solution for fostering a collaborative community.

We delivered a practical platform with a bespoke and unique design inspired by the comic book chat bubble. Blending nostalgia with modern flair, it offers a timeless, memorable look. The platform made community lending and borrowing easy and engaging with users tracking lent items effortlessly and listed goods for rent with minimal hassle. Streamlined process makes publishing item for rent, swap or giveaway quick and hassle-free.
