Kashless, Inc. is a software developer creating solutions to enable reuse, recycling and local marketplaces. The company believes reuse, recycling and local marketplaces should be as rich in advanced ecommerce and community features as the best paid goods marketplaces. No more clumsy bulletin boards or e-mail group lists. An advanced, modern ecommerce platform for reuse that is environmentally aware. The company calls it ReCommerce. By providing a comprehensive platform for reuse, Kashless extends the useful life of products, diverts significant amount of items from the waste stream, encourages local consumption, and reduces raw material resource demand. The platform quantifies the benefits of ReUse (carbon, GHG, tons of waste, etc.) so that brands, municipalities, organizations and individuals can demonstrate the value to stakeholders. Kashless, Inc. operates a demonstration ReCommerce reuse portal at kashless.org, white label versions of the platform in SAAS model, and a suite of web services that enable ReCommerce. Kashless provides a superior ReCommerce marketplace for the existing buyers and sellers in the market as well as a platform for extending the reach of ReCommerce into social networks, search engines, communities and other ecommerce marketplaces.
