Good financial habits are hard to develop and even harder to maintain in the long run. That’s why we invented the concept of social savings pools, giving you that extra incentive to save and invest. Up until now you had to set your own reminders to join pools and make deposits, but that’s about to change! We are shipping a new feature to make your financial life much easier.

Were you ever too late to join a GoodGhosting pool?
Want to know when your winnings can be withdrawn?
No worries, we got you covered!

Which type of notifications are supported?

For this pilot project we tried to keep it as simple as possible.
Expect to receive notifications whenever:

  • A new GoodGhosting pools is created
  • A pool ends and you can withdraw your funds
Example of a GoodGhosting notification in the Push Protocol Android app

In the future we might add more functionality, such as notifications when a new deposit round starts. Or even to remind you to make your deposit when a deposit deadline is approaching.*

*We will make sure this does not interfere with the gamification concept of GoodGhosting. This will likely be an exclusive and limited feature.

How to enable notifications?

  • Opt-in to the GoodGhosting notification channel on the Push Protocol (previously EPNS) website
  • You’ll automatically start receiving notifications on the Push Web app, related to GoodGhosting.
  • Want to receive notifications on the mobile Push App (Android & iOS) or in your web browser through an extension? Enable it here.

This is a 100% free service.

When is this going live?

We will start offering notifications together with the launch of our next pool. You can already subscribe to our Push channel to prepare.

Why Push (previously EPNS)?

We are strong believers in decentralization. That’s why we chose for a communication channel that allows to seamlessly communicate with users in a decentralized manner, whether they are on mobile or desktop. On top off that, did we mention that the Push Protocol founders are true Web3 OGs? We fondly remember building together in the earliest days of GoodGhosting, during Gitcoin’s KERNEL program.

Push is building the world’s first open communication layer for the Web3 ecosystem, first for Ethereum and then for L2s and other blockchains. The protocol enables any smart contracts, dapps, or traditional servers to send notifications tied to the wallet addresses of a user in a platform-agnostic fashion (i.e, notifications can be integrated and shown on any crypto wallet, mobile apps, extension, or dapps).

Got some feedback?

Let us know in our Discord server!

If this is something the community wants, we can build out a lot more functionality.
