Adding A Social Conscience To Mobile Purchases » 148Apps » iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch App Reviews and News

Buy stuff you need and help good causes along the way with Socialvest!

Socialvest is the latest app that hopes to give something back to worthy causes.

Previously a desktop based product, the app lets users shop with their iPhones, before receiving money back from each purchase that can be used to donate to over 1.5M different non-profit organisations.

Hundreds of different stores are available through the app, covering a wide range of different wants and needs. Major stores such as Amazon and Best Buy are available, as well as other more niche examples.

Each store offers a different percentage of spend that will go to a charity, making it clear to see what money is going where. It’s then similarly easy to decide on a charity or cause and watch the money go towards helping someone or something less fortunate.

It’s a neat idea and it’ll be fascinating to see how much Socialvest raises for good causes in the long term.

Socialvest is available now for the iPhone, and it’s free to download.

FREE!
