[…] Founded by Naoe Miyata and Jasnam Sachathep in 2014, Coin ⇌ Back is a travel brand that is truly one of a kind! The brand has come up with an innovative solution for getting rid of left-over coins and simultaneously making donations. The brand places kiosks in convenient places such as departure halls of the airports, hotels, malls and other public areas. The interested travellers will be requested to insert their coins in the kiosks. After carefully following a 3-step process, they will be able to contribute their money for some noble cause. They will be able to keep a track of their donations through the official website and social media channels. For more details on how to make the donation, click here. […]

Hi Nisha, Thanks for your question. We are hoping to get into the departure hall of airports, where travelers would be able to use these discount coupons to do their last minute shopping such as duty free, souvenirs, food and drinks inside the airport. At the same time, we are trying to help the retail shops around attract customers. We are also thinking about having a camera to engage with the travelers so they can share their donation and memories through social media before leaving the country after donation. We are still in the brainstorming stage, so please let us know if you have any suggestions! We would love to hear your advice, suggestions and opinions! Our email is coin0back@gmail.com and our FB page is http://www.facebook.com/coinbackglobal.

I was wondering what’s the use of giving discount coupons when a person is leaving the country and money. I am sure coupons will have validity period as well. Nobody is coming back to avail those discounts. You can reward him with something else.
