We’re cruisin’ through a hot summer in Nashville!

First off, the TIKI Beta is live for everyone! We’re looking for everyone willing to help to download our app and help us test it at scale!

Here are our asks:

1. Connect an Account: By connecting a Gmail (Google) or Outlook (Microsoft) email account to TIKI, we can test the power of our NFT minting at scale. Additionally, you can test out one of our initial features: the ability to unsubscribe from spam email.

2. Poke Around!: Push buttons, explore, try going from page to page, test the UI/UX. This is not a final app experience (it will likely eventually look very different) but many of the functionalities will carry over.

3. Report any Bugs or Feedback!: After exploring around, it’s quite possible something breaks, doesn’t work as efficiently as it should, is confusing, etc. etc. It is a beta after all! You can submit bug reports and feedback directly on the app, to the appropriate Discord channel, or shoot an email to Shane at support@mytiki.com.

4. Refer Your Friends: The more the merrier! Share your unique referral code (found in your Account Settings) to get your friends to join the TIKI Tribe!
