About Us

Our concept of “Grow!”

Living and interacting online more and more, we noticed when we find something we like, there’s no real way to show our love for it. And, on the other side of the equation, it’s hard for individual to make money even when they publish something seriously great. Creativity should be rewarded. There should be an easy way to put your money where your mouse is.

This is a major problem in the age of social networking. In real life, you can tip someone. Online, you can’t.

That’s why we developed “Grow!” With us, you can give a little money, connect closer, and help promote really great content. Tip your favorite content and publishers through a simple button on their web site. We believe Grow! builds a closer relationship between musicians and listeners, bloggers and readers, photographers and viewers.

The closer all publishers and fans are connected, the better it is for both sides! : )
