My Local Token

My Local Token (MLT) is the currency of the "Shop Local" movement! MLT, an innovative payments app, is now available. It's designed to save small businesses money on fees, host exclusive discounts, and will give shoppers the satisfaction of knowing their money is staying local.

Be sure to stop by @thesplitbanana today to help celebrate their 15th Bananaversary (and for your chance to win one of many great prizes, including special edition MLT gift cards)!

Purchase yours today at official MLT Sales Outlets, and thank you for shopping small this holiday season: mylocaltoken.org/business-direc… (Special edition gift cards are subject to availability and supplies are limited.)

We're celebrating Small Business Saturday in Staunton, Virginia! The My Local Token app is now available, but we've also created special edition metal gift cards that will make the perfect stocking stuffer. They can be used without needing a smartphone!

This weekend we celebrate Small Business Saturday in Staunton, Va.! Use the My Local Token app (mylocaltoken.org) to shop small. (p.s. You can give MLT to anyone and they don't even need a smartphone to use it!)

Traipse was selected as a SOCAP 2022 Entrepreneur! Traipse Founder and CEO, Darren Smith, will be talking about the launch of My Local Token, and the work we're doing to support local businesses and local economies.

We're gearing up for a launch of My Local Token! We've been busily working with amazing partners like @StauntonDownTwn, over a dozen @StauntonCityVA small businesses, & a host of eager testers to take the app through its paces. We can't wait to share the final version with you.

We're heading into the final stretch of our crowdfund campaign! Help us build My Local Token to give Main Streets a powerful tool to support local businesses: crowdfundmainstreet.com/campaigns/nibt… <—

Traipse PBC @mylocaltoken is piloting a Celo-based community currency ecosystem in partnership with a U.S. historic downtown district. The MLT project will integrate a Celo wallet with a local directory for earning, spending, donating, and accepting MLT (wrapped cUSD) 🤝

So proud to be among the Scholarship Entrepreneurs for #SOCAP21, and getting to interact (virtually) with all of these people putting capital to work for social change. I'd rather be back at Fort Mason but this is great! Thanks @SOCAPmarkets

Last night @GoTraipse Founder Darren Smith (right) received the @SVTechC’s "Innovation in Emerging Business" Award! A tremendous honor. Learn more about the award --> traipse.co/post/we-won (Presented by Jared Burden who was there to represent sponsor @GreeneHurlocker.)

Thank you, everyone, for coming out to the happy hour! After working head-down on a project for ages, it’s so rewarding to talk about it out loud with strangers and come away feeling stronger about the idea than ever.

Happy hour this afternoon at 4pm. Hope to see you! stauntonhub.com/event-details/…

Save Main Streets! Next Tuesday, Sept. 28, enjoy some free happy hour drinks, and come chat with us about the new downtown initiative, My Local Token! --> mylocaltoken.org/party

It's a great look into what we have planned for My Local Token and why you should invest in us (for as little as $500, by the way, thanks to our crowdfunding platform): crowdfundmainstreet.com/campaigns/nibt…
