Tuyo, a new money app built on Base, has introduced a payment card with an unusual twist: every purchase you make might cost you nothing.
The concept is simple but intriguing - when you swipe the card, there's a chance your transaction will be free. The app markets this as "buy now, pay maybe," turning everyday purchases into a potential lottery.
Key features:
- Built on Base blockchain infrastructure
- Payment card with randomized free transactions
- Gamifies everyday spending
The app represents another step in bringing crypto-native financial products into daily use, though questions remain about the economic model and how the "free" purchases are subsidized. No details have been released about the odds of receiving a free transaction or the mechanics behind the system.
What if your next purchase was free? @itstuyo is a money app on Base with a card where every swipe might cost you nothing Buy now, pay maybe
