- ttruong 14y agoCongrats James and Khaled! Awesome company from two of the nicest guys you will ever meet.
- knighthacker 14y agoThanks man. It is easy to be nice when you are surrounded by awesome individuals like yourself :).
- ashrust 14y agoAgreed on Khaled, although I'm at best unsure on James.
- ajju 14y agoCongrats guys, Crowdtilt rocks! (said the guy wearing a shirt bought using crowdtilt).
- ukd1 14y agoCongratulations guys!
- jbenz 14y agoFrom the article: >I’ve found that when I plan something like a vacation rental with friends, it’s often done by email with a lot of chasing for payments in the aftermath (that could just be my own flaky friends, of course). It's definitely not just the author who has flaky friends. I think almost everyone has problems collecting money from friends. This makes me think of fantasy football and what a pain in it is to run a league. This, in turn, makes me think of WePay. I wonder how WePay is doing with these two specific use cases: vacationing friends and fantasy sports. And I wonder what they think of Crowdtilt.
- EREFUNDO 14y agoActually WePay is moving away its focus from group payments to small stores, merchants, and fundraising.
- nexthotstartup 14y agoneed a name change : i read it as : CROWD TIT!
- chrislloyd 14y agoSo did they: http://crowdtit.com http://crowdtit.com
- eiji 14y agoSpeaking of which, I would give the female picture on the homepage a minor makeover and tone her down a little.
- K2h 14y agoI read it that way as well - that could be intentional: it makes it more memorable.
- fomojola 14y agoExcellent work, gents. You're welcome :)
- waxman 14y agoCongrats! Keep crushing it guys.
- staunch 14y agoCongratulations.
- waterlesscloud 14y agoIf Facebook credits had a decent percentage fee instead of the crazy 30% they currently have, they'd instantly rule this market completely.
- TommyDANGerous 14y agoI thought Crowdtilt was like kickstarter but then I read further and its different. I like the idea and I can definitely see myself using their services.
