Mijem Background
Mijem is a social media and technology company providing innovative solutions to create a vibrant social marketplace for Generation Z communities, such as students, to connect and to efficiently buy, sell and trade goods and services on and off campus. Since launching the app in 2017, Mijem has accumulated over 119,000 downloads and has a userbase of 72 university communities. Mijem's patent pending technology currently permits thousands of university and college students across the United States and Canada to both connect online and engage in campus themed commerce. Accordingly, the addressable market for Mijem is the global post-secondary education student population and their Generation Z peers.
Mijem's marketplace is available via software accessible through both, mobile devices (specifically, an iOS application and an Android application) (the "Mobile Application") and the internet using a web browser (specifically, accessing Mijem's web application) (the "Web Application" and, together with the Mobile Application, the "Mijem App"). The Mijem App allows sellers to list goods and services for sale in a few minutes by taking a photo, adding a description and a price. Buyers are able to easily browse the myriad of items posted via the Mijem App and to find desired goods or services at lower costs. The Mijem App is a Generation Z-focused application targeted towards student campuses and their Generation Z peers. The objective of the Mijem App is to develop a one-stop online social marketplace based on simplicity, trust, and happiness for members.
Users of the Mijem App can use Mijem's marketplace to browse collections posted by other trusted members including textbooks, housing, clothing, electronics, furniture, tickets, ride shares and more. Users may also post items, ride shares, or school events on Mijem. Mijem is committed to building loyal members in the Mijem community. In the past, rewards such as gift cards and merchandise were given away to loyal members of Mijem. Mijem is looking to expand its loyalty rewards offering by permitting registered users to earn points and to redeem the points for Bitcoin SV in their crypto wallet. Users earn points based on dollars spent on purchases or value of goods sold through the Mijem App. Every 100 Mijem reward points accumulated is redeemable for the equivalent of 1 US dollar worth of Bitcoin SV.
