PIF® - Pay It Forward Free to download, Free to use, Free from ads. It's a new fun way to send small surprises to your friends. In the app you will find a universe of gift ideas for him, for her and anyone in between! And it doesn't matter were in the world they are. Are you studying abroad and the family back home want's to celebrate your birthday or another passed exam? They can just send you a gift on PIF, and you can go down to the local store and pick up your birthday cake, bottle of wine, or go to the cinema, payed and gifted to you by the fam back home The whole idea is based on the fundamental joy of giving and receiving personalized gifts. PIF is a social platform where users can interact with each other through fun and personal surprises, it's Random Acts of Kindness. At the same time, you support the local businesses. Instead of just sending a text message, users can now spread joy by sending a product accompanied by a loving or teasing message. And with the PIF ID you can send and recieve gifts to/from anyone without knowing any personal information. It's like the Cash tag from cash app, but for gifting PIF® - Pay It Forward is the result of many years of hard work. The idea is simple and brilliant, but, like with all good things, the development of the concept takes time. And we are not done yet. If you have any feedback that could help make the app even better, we would love to hear from you. Write to us at contact@pif-app.com or find us at @piftheapp. Pass It Forward or Pay It Forward, it's up to you! We just gave you the tool to spread joy to anyone anywhere, real easy. It's not PAF, PUF, POF or any other 3-letter P-word. Remember it stands for Pay It Forward, so it's PIF - PIF'ing is giving, and to get PIF'ed is getting a gift.
