At Choice App, updates never stop. Today is no exception — we’ve got four items coming in hot.

Check out the notes (below) and come join us in the Choice Discord server later this week to talk product.

Blinko! Rewards Paid in Sats Every Day for Opening Choice App

We announced Blinko in October and we’ve been slowly rolling it out for testing; the response thus far has been amazing. Now its officially live for everyone, wether you are on web or mobile.

In case you missed it in October, Blinko, is our way of giving you a daily shot at free bitcoin, just for paying attention to your savings.

Right now, it gives you the chance to win between 50 and 500 sats in your Choice Account every single day — but stay tuned on that front. ;-)

If you haven’t played yet, just sign in to your account (iOS or Web App), click ‘Play Blinko’, and drop your chip!

Max Buys — Now You Can Smash Buy Whenever You Want

One of our most requested mobile features is now here! When you go to make a trade, you’ll notice in the top right, you now have the ability to use your entire available cash balance in one click.

Also worth noting, while we were at it — we made the way we include fees simpler now. When you indicate a dollar amount, your fee will now come out of the total USD amount you input, so no need to sit there and manually calculate how much you are able to buy anymore.

New & Improved Live Chat Experience

We’re constantly working to get your issues resolved and questions answered more rapidly, and to that end, we’re exited to announce, we’ve officially rolled out live chat in the Choice app from 9am to 6pm EST, Monday through Friday.

If you want to talk to a rep on mobile, just navigate to the settings screen and hit the “contact support” menu option to launch a chat window.

More Robust Error Messaging for Plaid Deposits

Navigating the plumbing of the legacy financial system is tough and vague sometimes, but we are doing what we can to improve that experience.

Today, we’ve taken a step forward by adding more common language, better explaining a few hiccups that can happen when making a deposit in Choice App. These messages should enable you to get to resolution faster and ultimately, fund your account faster.

That’s all for now. We are determined to build the best retirement account possible for bitcoiners, and want to hear your feedback on the app & what you think we should add next.

Come to our Discord server and chat with other users and the team building Choice App!
