Larissa + the Neon Coat team keep you on your toes!!
An arrangement of experiences to promote and post on your socials such as fine dining, immersive experiences, modeling opportunities, I can’t wait every week to update my app and see what’s next in store.
Do hope they expand beyond the current market and do different towns and states with numerous businesses. They even offer a rebate for anyone who suggests a business to them and gets accepted! Am in no way shape or form being paid or compensated for this review but you never know once you download the app what could be the next thing you get compensation for!
It’s for models
Neon Coat started as a modeling-focused platform, and despite adding restaurants and dining experiences, the approval process still seems geared more toward models and traditional influencer aesthetics than food and travel creators.
As an established food and travel creator, I was asked for a modeling portfolio. If your content is centered around restaurants, travel, and experiences rather than modeling, don’t be surprised if you’re not accepted.
😕
I love NEON COAT
Don't waste your time being a part of this
Not working
They make you pay to do collaborations!
What’s the point of advertising if I’m just going to pay out of pocket. it’s ridiculous. This app doesn’t know how brand deals actually work. I’ve been doing content creation for 10 years and if I’m doing a whole video review for you why am I paying for services? I’m not even getting paid. Such a scam. I went to the gym one time and I had a membership for a month after a week they told me my membership was no longer valid because they weren’t working with the app anymore.
no notifications or update. Then another time they had the wrong address for a restaurant and I ended up paying. This app is just a headache. I’m better off getting brand deals on my own.
They seriously need to rebrand and be more transparent about the brands they are working with. I noticed so many brands stopped working with them because of it.
It’s embarrassing.
I love NEON COAT
This app is the best

So many amazing offers (sometimes private parties) and they’re always adding new restaurants and businesses so you never get bored :) as a model (and a foodie hehe) living in nyc, this app has helped me save so much money and gave me the opportunities to enjoy the city more 💖 thank you neon coat!!
Glitchy

Agency Representation Not Enough
I believed being represented by a modelling agency and having subsequent comp cards would be enough to qualify. Again thinking the platform was designed to help models.
However I was disappointed to learn that even though I am fully signed, represented, have shot with several well known photographers and worked 5 fully paid contracts (small but not nothing). I was declined because important parameters not met were (and I quote)
‘ parameters for approval:
- Instagram followers + engagement
- professional modelling work’
For reference I have 6500 followers and an ER of 10%.
Additionally the platform stated it wanted official models and not influencers, and yet it uses influencer metrics to evaluate applications?¿
Safe to say just very disappointed as I find the way Neon Coat portrays itself isn’t perhaps entirely true to their actual intention.
I’m sure if you are already a well established model with hundreds of thousands of followers and regular work you’d get approved, but then I ask what the heck would be the point of the app? Consider me confused.
