Today we will be testing GifmeBeer dApp with real consumers for the first time. We will be at a local brewery taproom offering anyone crossing the entrance door to join the dApp by scanning a QR code and getting their first Craft Beer Collectable NFT.
We want to check their reactions, see what they think about it, find out if the onboarding process is smooth and if they can easily create a wallet through socials or use Metamask if they have it installed on their cellphone, how they navigate through the dApp and what are the questions they post going through the experience.
At the same time, we need to educate the brewery owner on how he can explain and help new users join as owners and brewery workers will be the ones interacting with the users in the future explaining them about the service and helping them whenever they have an issue.
We have not made a public announcement as we want this to be a pretty small controlled event. Our public presentation will be during the Barcelona Beer Festival. Today is the first real interaction users will have with the new "toy" and the goal is to get as much feedback as possible and solve any issue that appears. If we have time we may have another real test before launch.
We have also started to define the "gaming rules" of the application. Cards will have rarity and you will be able to stake them to get points and purchase additional card packs with those points. In the future we plan to introduce an internal marketplace and additional benefits will appear to use your points. Besides the internal gaming rules, brewers will be able to launch short promotions at the breweries and bars for those owning their cards or any other condition.
I want to give a special thanks to Wylie Brewery for letting us run our first test tonight. Cheers!
I will share the testing day experience as well as post-testing conclusions next week once we can rest a little bit during the weekend. We are starting to feel the rush of the launch!
