The Toss It App has a scanner. The user
scans the item and is informed whether or not they can recycle it.
The scanner also has a feature that works on receipts. Once your
receipt is scanned, the app analyses it and tells you what small
changes you could make to your shopping list. This advice involves
suggesting items with less packaging or items sourced locally.
Finally, a rewards system is in place. We are currently working on
teaming up with small Irish businesses in the hopes that they will
get on board in being a part of our rewards system.
What makes us better than the competition:
