How does Pindify work? 

Pindify offer the symbiosis for Providers of the Arts & media to coexist with supporters and free browsers just as they would in any commercial center. 

It's free to join Pindify and post social or promoted content, but as a paying Member, you can earn on the Subscriptions of your fans and also on your professional body of work ('content').

The recognition by providers that they can achieve a great revenue growth by inviting their fans to become subscribers will increase the overall marketplace of Pindify.

Once clients of Pindify are starting to earn a better revenue from subscription than on any other streaming service, Pindify will reach out to the correlating industry media and really start promoting Pindify’s proof of concept
