YOU WANT TO SEE

Our leaders are bought and paid for by big donors. But did you know that a lot of that big donor money actually comes from YOUR ONLINE PURCHASES with major brands who donate to politicians? 

The Shoppyist App shows you whether or not the brands YOU shop with are using YOUR money to buy the political outcomes that YOU want.


With Shoppyist YOU can make a difference AND earn cashback just by SHOPPING YOUR VALUES every day. It's a superPAC in your pocket!


 
Belief

Unfortunately large donations from a select few control our politics. We believe that we can give you your political power back one purchase at a time by showing you how brands are using YOUR money to buy political influence & by matching you to the ones that support YOUR values...

Vision

We envision a world where shopping is not just simple consumerism, but where it becomes a conscious act of activism. We see a world where every purchase will be a powerful tool for political change, and strive to make it easy for everyone to shop their values.

Technology

Our app gives shoppers information about the political affiliations and donations of the brands that they are considering, so everyone can make the most informed decisions possible. But activism can be expensive, that's why we also provide our users with cashback on purchases where we can.

WHY WE HAVE TO DO THIS

How We Do It

How we do it

The data

Our research partner, VotingSmarter.org, has gathered and processed the data that we use to match you with brands. First they collect political donation data from the Federal Elections Commission & OpenSecrets.org. VotingSmarter then spends thousands of hours of researching interest group endorsements, candidate websites, and voting records to gather candidate positions on the major issues that you care about.

The process

VotingSmarter uses all those data to map the political donations made by companies and their stakeholders to the political positions of the candidates that they’ve financially supported to build a “political impact profile” for each brand.

 

Shoppyist then compares YOUR preferences to every corporate political impact profile we get from VotingSmarter to calculate your percentage match with each brand. Shoppyists (you) are then free to shop with any brand they choose too based on how well they match and/or how much cashback a brand is paying in our app.

Team

Dedication. Passion. Expertise.

We've assembled a diverse team of passionate change-makers each with specialized expertise to ensure Shoppyist can deliver on it's promise to help you save money and the world.
