First of all, everyone should understand that the FON token is a FoodNear product. Any seller at the FoodNear (FON) platform offers his products to the online food market and wants to obtain the maximum pool of potential customers with minimum expenses. It means that we will take it upon ourselves to tackle all problems associated with the food product placement and the seller will be able to focus on the quality of their products and efficient cooking process.

FoodNear smartphone application is quite extensive and will allow you to sell products that are already cooked, get orders at the customer’s request, and receive potential orders. Any new FoodNear seller gets a free trial period, which will last depending on the country or FoodNear Token Balance for any registered verified seller account.

Some countries can choose permanent free of charge options based on the “pay how much you can” model — with voluntary payments for FoodNear platform development. Sellers can continue to offer their food products to FoodNear platform customers at a fixed monthly price, covered by FoodNear Token balance.

Buyers can use the FoodNear application for free, but will have the option to purchase a monthly subscription, or give a certain amount of money to the foundation. There is also a possibility to send tips for a food seller, or simply hold the FoodNear Token Balance at the internal application FoodNear Token wallet instead of the Binance Smart Chain-compatible wallet.

Invest in charity. Social profits

The FoodNear community is committed to improving the charity practices. We plan to create a semi-charitable mechanism, which allows everyone to order food, recipes, and also help people who need it. Efficient commercial semi-charitable companies are going to distribute profits among the non commercial organization, helping them to reach the main charity goal in the most impactful way with the assistance of a full blockchain-based solution model for business and charity.

Trust in charity is vital, just as transparency of any incoming or outgoing expenses. We know how to resolve traditional issues arising in commercial and non-profit organizations: by applying blockchain digital technology solutions and a clear legal framework based on common law.

Our platform doesn’t keep any funds in private developer accounts, all assets go directly to public legal entities’ assets balance. Any consumer can always see where they have sent their digital assets. All blockchain transactions can be tracked in real-time. The largest donations will be processed manually and duplicated with traditional digital paperwork with government-issued official e-signature to ensure your help reaches the people who need it.

If you choose to donate directly to non-profitable organizations, you can save the life of a human being, historical building, animal, or even the whole species. If you invest in any FON Ecosystem company, you achieve the same goal and help charity indirectly by supporting semi-charitable commercial companies together with investment profits. Every single donation and investment will be important — both, big and small.
